Pin 85 - to Ground
Pin 86 - from + parking lights output from device (alarm, etc)
Pin 87 - Fused 12v constant rated at 25 amps or more
Pin 30 - to Parking Lights wire in vehicle

25 amps for the parking lights?
4 x 10 watts =40, divide by 12 more like 5 amps, relay not needed.
All vehicles outside of North America use the amber lights as direction indicators, we wire to them, 4 X 21 x 2 x 10 watts (these are on the front wheel arch or door mirror.
Again total 9 amps and again I've never had any problems wiring the direction indicators through a pair of 1N5404 diodes, again using the 10 amp fused output.

Amateurs assume, don't test and have problems; pros test first. I am not a free install service.
Read the installation manual, do a search here or online for your vehicle wiring before posting.

the 03 park avenue has a 25 amp fuse in the fuse box (factory) to power the parking lights, and whatever
other lights that are on this circuit. the remote start is only good for 10 amps, thats why I
need it.

x2 with Howie.
For most installs, the + parking light wire doesn't use more than 10 amps to power the parking lights. The 25 amp fuse most likely protects other things as well. In all the installs I've done with the positive parking light wire, I've never had to use a separate relay to activate them.
If you want to reduce the load on the remote starter, you can also use the negative trigger for the parking lights.
Unrelated question, how did everything work out with the bypass module?

+2 with Howie and short. There are most likely multiple circuits off that one fuse. I've never seen a parking light wire draw more than the parking light output could handle.

A few tid-bits of info...
Bulldog Security calls a standard automotive Bosch style 30/40 Amp SPDT relay a "775 Relay".
Your Deluxe 500 system can be set to output either a (+) or a (-) Parking Light signal, all depends on
what the H2/1 RED / White wire is connected to.
Plus 4 with Howard, Frank and Kenny. The Parking Light (+) listed as Brown (+) @ LCM, Black plug, Pin A will
work fine with the 10A output from the Bulldog Deluxe 500, no extra relay needed.
Even better ( as Frank mentioned ), set the Bulldog Deluxe 500 to (-) Parking Lights and connect to this wire :
Gray/Black (-) @ LCM, Gray plug, Pin B11 Less current draw thru the Deluxe 500. ------------- Soldering is fun!

Hey thanks guys, I'll hook it in to the negative side.
shortcircuit161: I won't be able to try the bypass module until tomorrow. I will
try to program it like you said,hope it works. I'll let you know tomorrow night.
Just want to say thank you to all that helped me out on here!! much appreciated.
