I think I need to relay my H1/12 RED / WHITE channel 2, 200mA (-) output wire into a high current ground to release my trunk switch in my 2001 maxima, i had a relay earlier when i tried installing it but it would pop open the trunk before i even connected +12v to #86. i want to push the AUX button on my 791xv remote to pop the trunk open

RED / white from alarm to pin# 85

12V to pin# 86

Ground pin# 87

Output to trunk switch wire pin# 30

If this is how you connected it try another relay.

i will definately try your method right now, i also found a picture of a positive relay and moved the wires around in photoshop and came up with this, will this work?
