Hi,
I noticed that my alarm has 7 wires for the ignition and my car (dodge caravan 98) has 5 wires: 12v+,starter,ignition1,2,3......looking at the alarm diag. looks that I have to install 4 wires (3 relays) when the ignition is on OFF position (STR,ON,ACC) and then, 3 more from the control module (alarm) witch one of them is connected to the starter (bridge), ON and ACC. What I don't understand is why on position OFF, my alarm has 2 wires going to "ON" of the ignition. Is one negative and the other positive.
Thanks,
David
