Your "new" unit has built in relays. Take the ones with the fuses and ground them. Use the wires marked "commen" these will represent pin 30 on a standard relay. These will go to your lock and unlock wires on your car.

ok thanks for clearing some of the question, but yeah i dont recall seeing any of the wires labeled "commen"? also im assuming the ones with the fuses that i need to ground can be grounded at the same place?that may be a stupid question just had to make sure, thanks for the fast response!

Look in the manual, the wires are either labelled NO, NC, and common. OR 87, 87a, and 30.

Thats wild....the astro units I have been using for years, has built in relays. Common is pin 30 of the built in relay this would NOT be fused. The wire that is fused would be pin 87 of the built in relay, or Normally open. The remaining wire is pin 87a, normally closed. Pins 85, and 86 are controlled internally. You need to do some testing. Never mind how they are labeled.

Ground the wires with the fuses, and use your DMM to test the output of the remaining wires. Your looking for a NEG(-) pulse when you hit the lock/arm button. Same on unlock/disarm!
