Ever since I got my alarm installed my 10 minute key out of ignition delay doesnt work. Its supposed to leave the radio on for 10 minutes but it doesnt shut off ! Not until I open the door or hit the foglight button which is weird :(! Just wondering if anyone knows what wire controls this? Thanks!

From my knowledge, your Silverado's radio is NOT supposed to stay on for 10 mins after you take out your key?! I work at a Chevy dealership, and I can guarantee you that NONE of there cars or trucks' radios stay on for 10 mins after you remove the key. The only way to make the radio stay on is if you had the car running, or left the key in the "ACC" position, and if you remove your key while the doors are closed, then the radio should stay on. Im not sure for how long, but as soon as you open any door (While the key is out after you removed it when the doors are closed) your radio turns off.

Right, thats what I said my radio stays on for longer than 10 minutes or until I open a door or hit the foglight button for some weird reason. Trying to figure out what wire controls the 10 minute key outta ignition delay, cause I really like the feature and it stopped workin' after my alarm was installed! Thanx!

Slammed01 I would first check ALL the features of your alarm. If everything was hooked up correctly it shouldn't have interfered with any factory features. If something is not working correctly then that's usually whats causing the problem with the car. If that dosen't get you anywhere check where the door trigger wire is connected. If they used a different wire for each door and didn't diode isolate them this will cuase a problem. If I remember correctly there is a light under the dash that comes on when the doors are open it has a white wire and a orange wire, orange is constant pwr +, white is neg - when doors are open if thats there hook your neg trigger from the alarm to the white wire and you should be ok.

As always check your wire with a meter before you connect them to the alarm.

Thanks, so possibly the door trigger controls the 10 minute delay or is there a special wire? How do u dioide isolate the wires? Yea I think my door wires were connected wrong.....since my fogs come on when I open the f'n door! I just made a printout of the wiring diagram for my truck........and alarm so I have it for future reference ;)

Yeh that would be a good indication that something is wrong.

If they used individual door triggers and didn't isolate them it could be feeding back a signal to your BCM or at best confusing it. If thats happening it will cause all sorts of problems. I wouldn't go thru the trouble of isolating the different door triggers there is one wire that does all doors somewhere in the car. Find that and you should be ok.

"All my wire are hooked up correctly. All my connections are good. I put 3 new modules in it. It must be the car."

OK just tell the customer they need to get a different car.

For door trigger use the purple wire at the light switch.....not affected by the dome delay...NEG(-)

Parking lights...brown at the keyless module under dash in the blue connector

Thanx appreciated wasnt gettin' E-mail notifications for some reason! So does the purple at the light switch control both doors or just driver? From the diagram I printed from here is Tan/negative=Drivers and Gray/black is is passengers and diode isolation is needed. Then another says Orange is door 2 also a negative????? My parking light flashes work fine :) just dont get why my 10 minute delay wouldnt work.......maybe cause the door trigger is hooked up to possibly foglights, thats why when I take the keys out and hit the foglight button it will kill my delay as if I opened the door. I liked havin' the 10 minute timer tho, cause if I R/S now I have to go and open my door if Im not ready to leave so the radio will turn off. Any new info on the 10 minute delay wire?

Purple wirem (-) behind headlight switch will control both doors. No need to diode isolate or anything like that. Tan wire at the bcm, far right plug. Hook up to you automatic rearm off your alarm and it will kill the radio, no need to wait for the 10 minute delay. That wire can also be found in the driver's door at the horseshoe (the thing that latched the door shut.

If installed at a shop, I would take it back with this information. That truck is one of the easiest on the market. Almost everything can be found at the BCM and Ign harness. I you installed it, I would go thru my connections and follow the instructions on all these posts that have responded to you. Good luck.

Appreciated, for the domelight what wire is that just to double check? Reason why i liked the 10 minute delay is cause on a break I would sit n my truck and not have to kill my battery :) but I guess that wire is a mystery! A friend who owned a shop installed it. Everything is soldered n such.....wrapped in electrical tape.

The purple is behind the headlight switch, connected to the headlight switch. The tan wire in the far left plug of the BCM shuts off the radio when you kill the remote start with the remote. I would unhook all the wires that control the dome lights and/or door trigger. It sounds like something is feeding back. Get the manual to the alarm/RS and see where your "negative door trigger input" wire is and connect it to the purple wire that is connected to the headlight switch. If you like the radio to stay on even after you kill the truck with the remote start or the key, nothing else needs to be done. Just find where the installer wired into the door trigger and disconnect it. SHould be your problem.

It sounds like when the alarm sees the ignition wire go from 12v to ground, it is activating the dome light supervision, thereby killing the RAP. Dome supervision wire would be my guess.
