2000 Dodge Intrepid, alarm/remote startPrinted From: the12volt.comForum Name: Car Security and Convenience Forum Discription: Car Alarms, Keyless Entries, Remote Starters, Immobilizer Bypasses, Sensors, Door Locks, Window Modules, Heated Mirrors, Heated Seats, etc. URL: https://www.the12volt.com/installbay/forum_posts.asp?tid=58141 Printed Date: November 25, 2025 at 9:26 AM Topic: 2000 Dodge Intrepid, alarm/remote start Posted By: darock Subject: 2000 Dodge Intrepid, alarm/remote start Date Posted: June 21, 2005 at 2:07 PM I've been on this site for weeks looking for tips on how to install my remote start unit with window module to my car. So far I've gotten allot of great advice from the "Masters". I've done many indash installs before, I just completed one that had a huge brain with 30+ wires and the results were clean. No wires showing, all connections crimped and 3m taped(noob bragging rights:) ). I have a few other questions that I need answers for and I hope you guys can help. Here's what I have: Car: 2000 Dodge Intrepid w/ black key (no need for transponder or bypass) Alarm: Commando 5005 w/ window module and glass break rader Questions? 1) What and where is the "Glow Plug"? and do I need this connected. 2) Besides what the 2000 Intrepid wiring diagram suggests, what other relays, diodes and resistors will I need and where? 3) Is the Tach wire locted on the engine head? 4) The remotes wireing diagram says to connect 3 differnt connections to the battery constant 12v+ power, Can I put them together with seperat fuse holders? 5) Some connections the remote request are not on the 2000 Intrepid's diagram I got from the bulldog site i.e Glow plug and Passenger unlock. Do I need them? ( i know this is getting long) 6) The remote diagram asks for the oragnge wire to be connected to a"30 amp. Relay for Starter Disable Output(-)"? don't know aht this means. Thanks a million. any help/advice is extremly welcomed!!!!! ------------- Don't get tired, get get better.

Not require. Glow Plug is only use on Diesel engine only. "2) Besides what the 2000 Intrepid wiring diagram suggests, what other relays, diodes and resistors will I need and where?" You will need them only as suggested on the wiring diagram. "3) Is the Tach wire locted on the engine head?" Some time at the Injector. You will need to use a multimeter and set it on AC for meausurement. The signal will fluctuate between 1-8V AC when you press on the throttle. DODGE, INTREPID, 2000, Tachometer This vehicle has an ignition coil for each cylinder. For tach use a tan/stripe wire at any one of the coils. "4) The remotes wireing diagram says to connect 3 differnt connections to the battery constant 12v+ power, Can I put them together with seperat fuse holders?" Yes you can. "5) Some connections the remote request are not on the 2000 Intrepid's diagram I got from the bulldog site i.e Glow plug and Passenger unlock. Do I need them? ( i know this is getting long)" NO. Better long and clear, then ASS-U-ME. Power Lock WHITE/ green + back of fusebox DODGE, INTREPID, 2000, Power Lock Locks are positive trigger through resistors. Use 2.7K (2700) ohms for lock and 620 ohms for unlock. MUST use relays. "6) The remote diagram asks for the oragnge wire to be connected to a"30 amp. Relay for Starter Disable Output(-)"? don't know aht this means. " Don’t do the starter disable until you have some basic knowledge as to how it works. Connect the starter wire directly to the starter wire on the vehicle. Get everything working first. Starter Disable is basically cutting the starter wire into two so the car will not start unless it is disarm properly. Below is a wiring diagram the industry uses. It maybe of some use to you.

I'll relax on the starter disable input.i've got a good guide and thanks for the extra wiring diagram..you ROCK!!!!!! I'll let you know how the install turned out this week. thanks thepencil!!!! ------------- Don't get tired, get get better.

Remote start -CHECK Alarm Sensor-CHECK Siren-CHECK Arm/Disarm-CHECK Parking/Brake Lights-CHECK LED light-CHECK Door Lock/Unlock-No joy Trunk-No Joy Window roll down- havent started Window Radar- havent started Still workin. Tomorrows a new day!!! ------------- Don't get tired, get get better. Posted By: darock Date Posted: June 22, 2005 at 12:52 PM Hello,
This is my second post for the same issue. I'm almost complete with my install but I have a few more questions for the "Masters" like "thepencil"! So far the car starts and lights flash when I arm/disarm it. Even the brake disable works fine. I just can't get the trunk to pop or the doors to lock/unlock. I think I may need a relay for the trunk because when I hit the remote for the trunk I don't hear a relay click in the module. However, I do hear the clicks for the lock/unlock in the module. PLEASE HELP, MY WIFE IS GOING TO KILL ME IF I SPEND ANOTHER DAY OUT THERE!!!! Below are the cars specs and damage I've done so far. Here is my cars diagram given to me by "thepencil": and below is the FM-5005's alarm wiring diagram w/ notes of what i've connected and haven't connected so far. No relays connected as of yet. I have a about four I just bought. DIRECTWIRE™ WIRING INFORMATION - DODGE / INTREPID / 2000 / Remote Start FM-5005 REMOTE ALARM & STARTER WIRING 1-GREEN / WHITE: Connect to the Brake light switch (+) when Brake is pressed.

Thanks guys!!! -darock ------------- Don't get tired, get get better. Posted By: thepencil Date Posted: June 22, 2005 at 2:00 PM Door lock wiring diagram. You may need to add relays for more current. Also, you may have to play around with different value resistor to get it just right for the door locks to work.
Your trunk release is POSITIVE. You will need to connect "RED / WHITE:Aux 2 Output (-) (Trunk)" to the trunk output of module as indicated on the wiring diagram. ------------- Be careful whose advice you buy, but be patient with those who supply it. ![]() Posted By: darock Date Posted: June 22, 2005 at 2:09 PM thanks ...i'm back out under the dash!!! darock ------------- Don't get tired, get get better. Posted By: darock Date Posted: June 22, 2005 at 10:46 PM Everything is AG (all good)...I even went at the window mdule and got it to work! Thanks for all your help "thepencil". Without your help I wouldn't know what I'd done..The wife is happy and I got allot of clean up and putting back together to do in the morn. Onc again thanks..I'll be sure to spread the knowledge... darock ------------- Don't get tired, get get better.

You are quite welcome. Please do, it makes the world a better place. ![]() ------------- Be careful whose advice you buy, but be patient with those who supply it. ![]() Posted By: darock Date Posted: June 23, 2005 at 10:59 PM back again...seems that the headlights have taken the place of the door lock and unlock features. alo t his has taken my use of my windows up and down manually. i worked fine a yesterday. the only changes since then were I noticed that the AC was not coming on when i remote started. after i swicthed the wire the AC comes on when i start but the radio stoppe coimng on. also the (-) lead from my alarm to my window module won't sedn the signal...i'm useing 2.2Kohms for lock and 680kohms for unlock..would that throw things out of wack?..any ideas?
------------- Don't get tired, get get better. Posted By: thepencil Date Posted: June 24, 2005 at 8:38 AM There are two accessory wire. If you need the radio on during remote start. Power both the accessory wire up. Don't jump the wire add a relay instead.
Try using a different value resistor for the door locks again. Try higher value. It's a very common issue with you vehicle. Which is why I only buy HONDA and TOYOTA vehicle. No relay and resistor require to get the keyless to work. Just a ground pulse will do. ------------- Be careful whose advice you buy, but be patient with those who supply it. ![]() Posted By: darock Date Posted: June 24, 2005 at 11:28 AM any ideas on why the doors and windows don't work manually? are the linked to the acc wire?
------------- Don't get tired, get get better. Posted By: thepencil Date Posted: June 24, 2005 at 1:03 PM Do you mean the switches on the doors? Double check to see if everything is plug in and secure.
------------- Be careful whose advice you buy, but be patient with those who supply it. ![]() Posted By: darock Date Posted: June 24, 2005 at 1:59 PM both..i will go check the connections. ------------- Don't get tired, get get better. Posted By: darock Date Posted: June 24, 2005 at 10:20 PM Well after five days,four hours and 45mins 30sec. It's done!! really, tistime. I decided to strip it down and like you said thepencil"Welcome to work" I was welcomed with open arms. I washed her, kicked off my shoes, grabbed a steak burrio my wife bought and a beer..I'm takin the weekend off. Thanks thepencil for all your help.. darock ------------- Don't get tired, get get better. |
