Hows abouts this: You post the alarm diagram and then tell us what part about it you dont understand.

The list of wires you posted is almost all you need. The diagram you have should refer to most of those wires then you just need to get into some dirty ass clothes get a old sofa cushion and kneel down and start looking for wires with a volt meter. If you dont know how to test to make sure you have found the right wire just ask. 12v+ constant means just what it says. 12v+ Ignition is 12v+ in ON and Crank position. Acc drops out during cranking just like you blower and radio do when you start the car with a key. And so on and so forth.

Have you ever held a wire stripper or a soldering iron before ? I ask because if you have not and so not know how to operate a DMM, I suggest that you spend the money to have it installed properly instead of running the risk of damaging expensive components on the vehicle.

O,,,I don't know why yahoo took off the alarm diagrams.  Here, I post them again.

I have wire stripper and screwdriver.  I will go to buy some vinyl electrical tape, crimps, and a digital Multi-meter.  Is that all I need?  (1) I don't know where should I connect wires (orange to yellow/black) to?  (2) where can I find battery ground?  (3) for the black wire, I should connect to ground then to (-) terminal? (4) where is direction light? (5) how to connect fuel pump killer relay and starter killer relay? (6) where is blue door negative trigger and white ACC?  Thank you very much.

My first piece of advice to you is not to crimp anything, all connections should be soldered.

Second, I'm all for learning by doing, but if you don't even know where to get ground, I would seriously consider having someone who knows what they are doing help you out on this one.

The questions you're asking are extremely basic and makes this a little scary.

***Disclaimer*** If you've never used a soldering iron or installed an alarm you might be biting off a little more than you can chew with this one. If you have a friend who has done it, ask them for help or to lend a hand.

Before you start, please spend at least a week (several hours a day) reading the information available on this site...
Starting Here

1. Orange, white, yellow, ORANGE / black, WHITE/ black, yellow/black are for door locks.
     Click here for info about determining your type of locks.
2. Battery/Chassis ground can be obtained any where on the car.
3. Just connect to the chassis somewhere (unpainted area).
4. Direction lights are your parking lights.
    Connect this to #6, PARKING LIGHTS (+), GREEN / WHITE, Harness In Driver’s Kick Panel
5. Starter Kill/Interrupt
The Fuel Interrupt would look alot like the starter interrupt but would cut the power to the fuel pump.
6. Connect "Blue door negative trigger" to #7, DOOR TRIGGER/ DOMELIGHT SUPERVISION (-), BLACK/ RED, At Any Door Pin
    connect "white acc" to #4, 12V ACCESSORY WIRE, BLUE/BLACK, Ignition harness

I highly recommend you read the following...
Resistors
Relays
Ohm's Law
Diodes
Converting Polarity with Relays

Educate yourself first, then have fun but be careful.

BTW, If you have airbags, don't touch any big yellow wires! They could be for the Airbags and cause the to deploy.

I love the part where it says, "Please do not harass this part during installation."posted_image

Hi I have almost same alarm starter combo the model is al838s the manual it's almost useless my problem is everytime press the foot brek it tries to lock my doors so the doors lock when I start the car then I'm driving I try to slowdown and click, try to stop and click any time I press the brek click it's a pain to hear the doors clicking all the time I use the foot brek. My other problem is the remote starter I remote start the car and a couple seconds later I hear the noise the starter trywing to crank again, I used the purple wire from the alrm/starter  unit and connected to a white wire inside the car on passenger side on harness that comes from the front of the car assuming that is the tach wire I start the car and test with a meter and the signal is 0V to 1.3V on idle when I press the gas pedal the signal goes up any help would be great.

My car is 1996 Firebird convertable 3.8L V6 I made a module to bypass the antithef, starer killer, I used streat connection to door locks using 2 diodes one for door triger to waikup the RAP module and one door lock I connected the trunk release without relay on the positive wire after the factory relay
