I have put in r/s, but never a alarm r/s combo. On the relay satellite box, it has 4 wires that im not sure where they go, blue (-)status output <-- goes to the bypass, the other three im not sure of, orange (-)200mA 2nd accessory output, purple (-) 200mA starter output, and pink (-) 200mA 3rd ignition, im pretty sure i don't use the orange or pink, but what about the starter output? The reason i ask, is everything else is hooked up, when i hit r/s it just clicks, starter never turns over.

Those wires are extra outputs to control relays, but only if needed. For example, if a vehicle had 3 accessories and 2 ignitions, your remote start only provides 2 ignitions and one accessory output positive. You would use those outputs to control relays for any additional required vehicle circuits.

What make/model/year is the vehicle? Make sure that you have not reversed the starter kill circuit. I find this is the biggest mistake most people make. Pay attention to which wire is meant to go to the key side and which is to go to the starter side.

I triple checked that, to make sure i went to the right wire. The vehicle is a 2006 Dodge Ram, so it requires two relays.

Also, on the second start resisotr, pin 85, the purple negative start wire, is this the wire coming from the r/s unit? I thought that wire went to the starter wire in the vehicle.

the purple wire is positive output to the starter.....also, dont forget to ground the neutral safety swtich..

So just hook it up directly to the starter wire in the vehicle?

I have never done a security system, so i am unsure of this, the BLACK/ white domelight output goes to dome supervision yellow/lt.blue on the truck right? Which when the door is opened and the alarm still set will trip the alarm correct?

I wanna make sure on the starter wire, because on pin85, there is power coming from it, not sure if i can hook that directly to the starter wire on the truck

You should have a starter out(purple) and a starter in(green) on the satolite relay. You need to cut the starter wire and hook the green to key side, purple to starter side.

If you want dome light supervision, you will need to wire a relay. DO NOT hook the BLACK/ white to the yellow/blue in the truck or you will damage something. The alarms DLS wire is a ma negative output and the DLS wire in the truck is a high current positive...

Right, i got that, but on the second start resistor, pin 85, the purple negative start wire, where does this hook up to. The starter wire in the vehicle? key side, or motor side?

The second starter wire is PURPLE / brown. you must send a negative thru a 180ohm resistor during crank...

ok, not sure if i wrote this right. I have the acc relay hooked up, on the second starter relay, i have pin 87 grounded with a 180ohm resistor, 86 is +12volt, 30 is going to the 2nd start wire, motor side. Pin 87a is nothing, pin 85 is purple negative start wire, according to directfax 1084. What is the purple negative start wire is what im asking, is it the starter wire in the vehicle, or is there a wire coming off of the unit that this goes to? Thanks for any help.

The truck ahs two starter wires, one positive, one negative. One gets a positive from the RS thru the fat green, the other gets a resisted value negative supplied thru the separate relay. The purple wire they mention on the 1084 is the wire on the small 4 pin plug next to the ribbon cable on the relay pack on the 3.5....

Ok, thanks.
I got that hooked up, as of right now, when you hit r/s, the acc powers up, but the truck just makes about 5 quick ticking sounds, repeats for 3 times, then quits. Any ideas?
