Hey everyone,

Im installing an alarm system for a 2003 dodge stratus sxt and need to find a wire diagram for the car. I have the remote start aspect of the alarm already connected just need to find out where to find the other wires and colors. I already checked the diagrams on this site and only found a 2001 stratus and it is very different compared to the 2003. Please help and Thankyou ahead of time.

Door unlock/lock wire

Be able to disarm it. Also the key has a chip in it so how do i bypass having the key in the ing. to auto-start vehicle? (without installing a key by the steering column)

First, there isn't a factory alarm, it is the factory computer. Second read, this type of situation has been discussed for who knows how long. Chances are that you will still loose a key, whether you put it in the steering column, ghetto way, or in a key in the box type immobilizer is up to you.
