hi all,

i need a wiring diagram for a 1996 dodge ram 1500.  i just bought a new code alarm and to say the least its got alot of wires. i would like to try this myself.  ive installed my own stereo so im no stranger to this stuff. if anyone can post a list of what wires go to what (in the truck) as in what each wire is for, then i might be able to do this.

thanks

jim
