i have read the install manual a couple time now and need a little help please.

Q. there is a wire called "Light Flash - isolation wire - pin 87a of onboard relay"
i assume this will flash my parking lights?

there is also a wire called "parking light output" what is this for? do i connect both?

Q2. i have ground trigger door switches installed in the van. and i know what wire to connect them to on the alarm but there is also a "(-)200mA dome light output". can i connect these to the same wire? as the dome light is driven off the grounding door switch..

TIA

My info says to add an actuator to the drivers door.

that means 2 relays AND another actuator.

cant it be done with just the relays?

It says add an actuator - that is all it says.
Yes, you need relays - you should be able to find a diagram in the "diagrams" section under door locks.
Never done one - sorry.
