I just installed 4 door lock actuators and a starter/alarm system in a 2002 Dodge Neon, my only problem is figureing out how to wire up the relays to make them work. I have all the actuator wires leading together in the end and tested them by touching one to ground and one to 12v and they work properly. Just how would i do a relay set up so it will switch one wire to ground while the other is positive, then the complete opposite to make the actuator work the other way too. The alarm signal output is (-) ------------- 2003 Chevy Avalanche,Eclipse CD7000,Morel Elate 5,Adire Extremis,Alpine PDX-4.150, 15" TC-3000, 2 Alpine PDX-1.1000, 470Amp HO Alt.
