I got a Megatronix 3700, I got it all installed so I thought, it wont unlock or lock my doors when i arm and disarm. It wont roll up my windows, it did however once when i first installed it now it wont. The alarm goes off after about 4 minutes after i arm it and nothing happens to the truck so it just goes off for no reason, the remote start dont work either, i need some one on one help if anyone would be so kind to help me, if nothing else I will even pay you, I really need help im such an amature, the wiring looks godawful. Plz add me to msn to one on one or post what u think or ur msn or whatever IF anyone can help me it would be much appreciated.

I think i put the Dome SUpervision output directly into the dome light circuit, is the unit fried or could that just make somethings not work or cook the feature of window roll up and door locks or could i disconnect it and it solves the problem...?

that seems ok as long as u got the polarity correct the most it will do is pop dome fuse .

The domelight supervision wire is NOT meant to directly wire into the domelight circuit. It only provides a low current enough to power a relay. If it is no longer working you may have indeed fried it.

Ok i noticed the smelling of something cooked in my brain of my Megatronix 3700, 2 resisters look to have been over heated, you think they might possibly still work, or do i need to replace them, they seem like they would still work. thanks, final post also thank you for everything
