Just finished the install, programmed the db all and NOTHING works (no locks, door trigger, etc) but it responds to the keypad(one blink for lock,two for unlock,etc). The dball programs for d2d and w2w. I have all the wires from the dball connected to the alarm...guess I didn't really understand the d2d process. I haven't had a chance to run through some basic troubleshooting but I did notice the car wouldn't start with the key in the ignition while RS. Any help would be appreciated especially since this is a pretty straight forward install.

Ok. So if I understand if you use the keypad on the car it arms and disarms the system but not locking and unlocking via the remote. It SOUNDS like since your doing ut w2w you didn't use the door lock and unlock outputs from the alarm to the input on the dball. The doorlock and unlick out puts from the alarm should go to the inputs on the dball and then the outputs from the dball to the vehicle.

I connected all the wires to the alarm per the instructions. But the dball isn't doing anything. How do I use the D2D function if that will work. It's frustrating because the dball is supposed to cover all these finctions and it just blinks but that's it

I apologize. I just looked up the diagram. As long as the doorlock and unlock inputs are correct and connected to the outputs from the alarm SOMETIMES switching the tan and tan/black wires works. Those are the can hi/lo wires. If that doesn't work switching to w2w wouldn't help unless there was no signal to the dball from the alarms lock wires OR it wasn't wired properly. The only wires to the vehicle from the db all it looks like are splitting the security led and the can hi/lo wires. Plus power ground and ignition.

Have you used the plug from the DB-All and connected it to the socket marked"D2D port"?

I have all the plugs used(w2w and d2d) and the d2d wire is connected to the alarm d2d port. All the wires connect to the brain and it programs and responds to the keypad it just doesn't go anything

You must use one or the other not both. it just won't work because you're confusing the poor thing.
If you leave it D2D fine but if you decide on W2W don't connect the plug, just join the red and black wires to POS and NEG.

Use W2W, hardwire as much as you can, i.e. locks lights, door triggers and tach directly all pretty easy on that vehicle, just use the DB-All as your by-pass,

Have to ask, you DID follow the programming instructions to program the db all to your car and did it program successfully? It IS flashed for your vehicle??

The valet override is derived from the R/S NOT the DB-ALL.

So if I use the D2D then I only use the d2d plug and the tan and tan/black wires??

You have to use the tan and tan black wires either way. W2w or d2d

Did you not download the instructions that come with the DB-ALL software for that vehicle, it gives you complete diagrams for either W2W or D2D.
Try following them.

I think it's time to concede that you just might have made one or 10 wiring errors here apart from an inability to grasp the basics, read the instructions etc. Hard to say but you are obviously a pro. who should know better.

Which alarm are you using? Are you getting your CAN wires at the bcm?
