I'm installing a Prestige Keyless Entry and Remote starter Aps685.   Well I got the remote start hooked up and running fine.  My problem is that my dodge uses a (+) single wire for the power locks.  It says to install two resistors on the unlock side use a 750 ohm and lock side a 1800 ohm.   So, I popped in to the nearest Radio Shack and they start whipping numbers at me.      Does anyone know what the tolerance % i need to use and the watts I need for the resistors?

1/4 watt will be fine.  Any tolerance will be ok.

Chrysler uses a (+) trigger and most units have a (-) trigger. Relay used to reverse polarity.
