Yes,but do I need to hook it to BOTH red wires for the constant 12 volts? also Why would the Executive 3000 Keyless entry system have 2 wires to hook to the dome light?One wire has a fuse and one is a straight wire,how would these be hooked up? Thanks for the help

If the unit has 2 12 volt input wires like most systems do, then you will need to use both. If it only has 1 12 volt input wire, then use only one of the red wires. Are you sure the one with the fuse isn't for the PARKING LIGHTS ?

i think one is the input and the other is the output,tell us what colors you have in those wire's.

This is what the manual has: WHITE/ Black wire-(+-)Domelight supervision select WHITE/ Black wire-(+-)Domelight supervision output---"-this one has the fuse" Exactly how are these two wires to be hooked up?

WHITE/ Black wire-(+-)Domelight supervision select : This is your polarity selector. If your vehicle has a (-) or a (+) domelight trigger this polarity selector will out put whatever your domelight requires. ------------- Jeff

Do you want the domelight to come on automatically when you unlock the doors? If you don't care for this feature, just leave those two wires unconnected.
If you want illuminated entry, here's how you do it:
Go to the courtesty light under the driver's dash; it'll have two wires-- orange and white. With the door open, the white wire should test as a ground. With the door closed, the wire should test as positive.
Now that you have TESTED and confirmed that your car has negative-switched domelights, set your system up the following way:
"domelight supervision select" gets tied to chassis ground on the car.
"domelight supervision output" gets tied to the white wire at the courtesy light.

Success,well......almost Everything is working right except I cant get the other transmitters to work I am doing everything I did with the first one .Do I have to unhook the battery and start over with the other transmitters or something like that.I have three others and none of them will program Oh yeah,Where is the best place to mount the module?This is the only a keyless entry system,not an alarm Thanks,Allen

Since its only a keyless, you don't have to worry about making the module hard to access....just put it somewhere that's out of sight, and make sure it's secure so it won't fall down or rattle.
I'd imagine you've got it somewhere under the driver's dash. Try not to put it anywhere near the steering linkage or the pedals; it might get in the way and cause an accident. You can use screws to mount the module, but I think zip-tying it to an existing heavy wire harness is much easier. I've seen installers use Velcro or double-stick tape too.
I've never heard of the "Executive" brand, so I wouldn't know how to program remotes. And you shouldn't have to unhook the battery.
Usually, the programming sequence involves turning the ignition on and off...do you have the ignition wire from the keyless unit hooked up to the car? This is why it has to be hooked up.
You might try going right to the unit's module, and without unplugging anything, touch your test lead to where the wires go into the plug....make sure each connections is correct-----is constant power really constant? Is ignition really ignition? Is the programming switch plugged into the right place?
