ok,i put a remote start on a f150 with pats system,all works well...........almost.it has a factory keyless,not sure if it has a factory alarm,it just has a flahing security light.everything works great,keyless and remote start and all.
problem is,when it sits for about 30 minutes,it just goes off ,i disarm it and it beeps 3 times telling me that a pinswitch was triggered.i know that fords are positive usually but the information i had told me they were negative.ive had this problem before when the wrong polarity was used.so is this the problem you think?
on a 2003 f 150,what wire do i need to hook to the pinswitchs,purple for positive or green for negative.im using diodes to isolate the pinswitchs from one another also.
The BLACK / YELLOW catches the driver door and the BLACK/ pink catches the passenger door. The wires are found in their respective door harness. On the Super Crew the rear door trigger is BLACK/ lt. blue low in the driver kick panel. Use all wires and diode isolate each from the GEM module. All wires may also be found at the GEM module located above the fuse box. On models without a dome light delay use ORANGE / lt. green (-) at the light switch.

should they be hoked up to the green (neg) wire of the alarm?or purple (pos).i found the wires on the gem,i used one for the driver door and found anoher wire that had all the other 3 doors on it.BLACK/ blue for driver and BLACK/ pink i think for the rest??
You could grab the (+) BLACK/ lt. blue and this will catch all doors without worrying about the GEM. If you use the (-) trigger wires, then you will need to diode siolate and relay isolate the wires.

you can get a negative trigger at the keyless module to the left of the brake pedal. It is a light blue white in the second plug from the right.If you use this it will also wake up the "sleep mode" for the vehicle. There are two of these wires it is the one thatt is second or third pin from the end
