This is my first RS installation so this is all new to me. My 2003 dodge ram has more than one ignition wire to hook-up to,and several accessory wires as well.The starter (compustar 1wam-s)has only one ignition,one accessory,and one programmable output.What is the standard procedure?Do you just hook up the ignition output on the starter to all the vehicle wires that need a ignition feed?Do you need relays,diodes or just a tap? As much help would be greatly appreciated.

What you want to do is use the BLUE wire off the main harness and attach that to the second ignition. Now you will need an additional relay for the 2nd ACC wire. Use this diagram to help you with that: Second Accessory relay

You need to power EVERY ignition wire, and EVERY acc. wire during remote start to prevent the check engine light from coming on.
