When the vehicle it remotely started and you hit the unlock button on the remote, the factory alarm will go off,until you put the key in the ignition and turn it on to shut it off. I know that there is a disarm wire in this vehicle but I am having problems finding it. I know it is a dark GREEN/ purple wire but there are several and I dont have the right one. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks again Brian

You need to test this connection. The target wire will rest at nothing until you disarm the system with the remote FOB or with the key, then it is (-). Test this connection with a DMM where you will have the RED lead to 12 + and the BLACK lead to the target wire. If the DMM register's voltage when you disarm the truck you have the right wire. The wire should rest at nothing and if this is the right wire, jumper this wire to ground and RS the truck. This will bypass the OEM alarm until you release the jumper wire from ground

LOL ...... Yes I have asked questions before but usually I post statements about things rather than questions because I find that all my questions about vehicles get answered by other member's who ask the questions before I do.
