Ok, doing an install on a 93 Accord EX with a CS2002DC II.

The guy wants his RADIO to be controlled from remote, his dome light & headlights to come on with disarm, trunk release and a strobe light to flash when ALARM sounds.

My question, is this a current sensing unit and would i have to run a relay for the domelight circuit?

As for the headlights, that does not seem too safe in my opinion so I KNOW i would need a relay for that.

Last but not least, the strobe. If I assume correctly, it needs to be on you orange negative when armed output wire right? If so, is there a relay needed there?

Man, this guy sure asks for alot but dont worry, Im not going to cheat myself when it comes time for the BILL! (LOL!)

Any suggestions would be greatly appriciated.

Thanks

Use the output of the alarm siren to power the strobe via a relay . this will allow the strobe to com on when the alarm sounds. when you arm and disarm you will also get the strobe!!!! don't use the orange wire for this -use the siren out.

the dome light should come on as normal when disarm - use this wire via a relay to power the headlights. this may run down the battery ...!!!!

Radio can be on an auxillary channel.

OK..

I connected everything but the RADIO. I was told I need a TR-7 latching relay which costs about $30.00 to make the radio turn off and on with the remote AUX channel. IS that right?

I just bought a $6.00 one with pigtails that was 30amp. Im now confused.

HELP!
