I've got a 1998 Durango that I have installed a Crimestopper RS900VI. Everything works, except the door locks. I hooked up a set of relays, as shown here:
What am I doing wrong here? -------------

The 1998 Durango use a type B (+) trigger system: POWER LOCK ORANGE / purple |+ | blue plug in drivers kick panel
POWER UNLOCK pink/purple |+ | blue plug in drivers kick panel ------------- Jeff

Those are the two wires that I am using, but according to my Omega Software, it has a Reversal Rest at Ground System. That is not the case?
So, I would need to use this:

Does it have factory keyless entry?

Did you test those wires to see if they are (+) trigger ?

When the wires were cut I tested for the + so that I knew which was the switch side. I do get a + coming from the switch, but that is what I am supposed to get for the 5 wire, right?

abright I asked if it had factory keyless for a reason. The diagram says its a positive system as Jeff stated with factory keyless. Without factory keyless it is a reverse polarity. I suspect it has factory keyless since the reversal isnt working for you.

Sorry, I completely missed that question. Yes, it did have keyless entry from the factory.

Ok thats why they arent working. Wire them up like Jeff showed you above and you should be good to go.

I had tried it like that at one time, but couldn't get it to work, I will try it again, I may not have connected something properly. What if that doesn't work? I have moved on to another project and probably won't get back to that one for a few days. Just want to get the "What ifs" out of the way.
Thanks guys. I never would have thought that the factory keyless entry would have an effect on it.

Make sure you use relays for this door lock system. Using just the alternate polarity of the remote starter will not always work on these Dodge vehicles.

Well, hooked it up as positive pulse with relays and it still will not lock and unlock the doors.
This vehicle does have the OEM Security System if that makes any difference.
Any other ideas?

It is a 1998 model. Those are the wire colors that I am tapping into. What are you refering to as "type C"? My software shows that it "reversal rest at ground", but that didn't work. Neither did "Positive Pulse". Any other ideas?

What does the old DMM say on those two wires ? What does it rest at and what does it register when toggling the switch ?

Unfortunately I was on site and forgot to bring my DMM, I will have to go back and test and let you know what I get.

Type C is Reversal rest or Reverse Polarity https://www.bulldogsecurity.com/pdf/typec.htm ------------- "Big" Mike

That is the same thing that I had tried in the first post:
Didn't work. Then I was told that if it has factory keyless entry (which it does) that it is positive pulse locks. That didn't work either. -------------
