I am trying to install a remote start and keyless entry system in my f150 4x4 1998. I bought a rattler from cicuit city and got the remote start to work but not the door locks or the head lights to flash so i took it to the installers at circuite city and they also failed. I took it back and got my money back and bought a vallet 552t I was told it would work and was a good system. Any way i would like to get all the info i can before i try this again. So if anyone can help with info i would greatly appr it. I would like to get some wiring info and diagrams for my truck.

Notes:
NOTE: Some models of this vehicle are equipped with PATS (Passive Anti Theft System). Use DEI module 555F to over-ride during remote start. *1 Power this wire if vehicle is equiped with only rear anti-lock brakes. Vehicles with all wheel anti-lock brakes do not have this wire. *2 Negative pulse, type 'B', on keyless entry models. Five wire, type 'C', on non-keyless models, mastered from the driver switch. *3 May also be found at trailer connector next to diagnostic connector under dash. *4 If equipped with autolamps. *5 The BLACK / YELLOW catches the drivers door and the BLACK/ pink catches the passengers door. Use both wires and diode isolate each. See direct fax document #1076 for wiring information. The wires are found in there respective door harnesses. Both wires may also be found at the GEM module located above the fuse box. On models without a dome light delay use ORANGE / lt. green (-) at the light switch. *6 Arms when locked with the door open. To simulate, send a negative trigger to the lt. blue/white wire at the RAP module, located behind the light switch, while locking. *7 The powertrain control module (PCM) is located on passenger side of engine compartment, to the passenger side of the battery, below the hood stay. It has a single 104 pin connector on it. Locate the WHITE/ pink at pin number 48 of the connector.

Is up to the installer to test all wires with a DMM whenever possible.
the 552t is a good unit, and will hook up very easy to your truck, the programing is a little tricky but not really that bad, use tach and remember to set the jumper pin for light flash to the polarity that you will use, good luck.
