Looked through postings, but couldn't find this. It is a 2.7L 2002 Chrystler Sebring Convertible. Thanks in advance. P.S. 5-wire reverse polarity, right? Should I use the Alarmtek archives diagram, or the one on this site? Bill rollingthunderaudio@hotmail.com

Connector C4 is a 26 pin plug on the bottom edge of the BCM. *3 All the door triggers are in connector C4 at the BCM. The drivers door trigger is tan in pin 5, and the front passenger door is tan/red in pin 6. Use both and diode isolate each. *4 Arm is positive trigger thru a 1800 ohm resistor, disarm is positive thru a 750 ohm resistor. Must use relays. *5 For tach go to either a coil or an injector and use the wire that is NOT GREEN/ lt. green. *6 The PCM is between the air filter box and the power distribution box on the driver side of the engine compartment. ------------- Jeff

lock are positive pulse with rsistors inline . it is a single wire system.look above at jeffs post fot resistor values

CAn someone please explain a bit more on how to wire the locks, diagram if at all possible on resistors and relay. Thx again.

Much like this diagram: Ford Probe but use the above listed resistor values. ------------- Jeff

Ok. Just to make completely sure, I DO NOT cut the lock wire, rather tap into it through the two resistors, unlock 750, lock 1800... they go between the relay and the lock wire, form the C4 plug, not from the switch, right? Thanks again.....
Also, what do I need to do to disable the factory keyless entry on this same vehicle? Do I even need to, or do I just tap the lock, unlock and trunk release wires? And the panic function? LAst, will the info from this factory keyless entry override be the same for a 2000 Ram 1500?

Last, do I need to change the negative alarm lock outputs to postive, or will this relay setup work as shown for the probe, using the above mentioned resistors?
Posted By: wlg83

I answered my own question, the ram and sebring wont be the same. Ok... how do I use relays to disarm the factory keyless, or again is this necessary?

does the car have a factory alarm??? you will have a led in the guages when the doors are locked if you do??
Posted By: securinu
Date Posted: November 23, 2002 at 3:30 PM
if you do have the alarm you will need to tap the GREEN/ orange wire in same connector as locks and use a 1780 ohm resistor for lock/arm and 730 ohm resistor for disarm and unlock and requires a double pulse for disarm/unlock

I feel like I keep asking the same questions... I just want to be sure this is done right. You guys have dozens under your belt, I am sure. Not sure if it has factory alarm, it does have keyless entry. If it is only keyless, do I still tap the GREEN/ orange wire in connector C4.
Also: The arm/disarm functions... do these control the door locks too, or is this a separate function? Does this apply to factory keyless entry only, without the alarm?

no white / green in same connector if no alarm.

Ok, last question(I hope for myself and all who take the time to help me out).
What do I do with the two accessory wires? Are they both necessary for a remote start? I think I have everything else down. Thanks, as always, for any help, 12volt members.

Try installing just the primary accessory wire and see if the system starts and the heater/AC engages and if it does, then you won't need the second accessory. The second accessory may be a required connection only if the system does not work properly. I think the second accessory is required but try it out first with only one. You can't damage anything by trying. ------------- Jeff

Just an idea... my remote start kit has an optional output for a third ignition wire. If the car fails to function with only one acc wire, using the optional output will work, right?
Posted By: Velocity Motors
Date Posted: December 01, 2002 at 10:14 AM
Yes, it will but you will still need a relay to activate the 2nd ACC wire because the 3rd ignition wire is only a (-) current wire to engage a relay .

Ok... when I am outting the resistors into the install for the door locks(similar to the Ford Probe lock setup), does the direction of the resistors matter. I have purchased 1/2 watt, 2%, flameproof resistors in 1.8k ohm and 750 ohm. Just need to know which way to put the resistors. The "fattest" color band is at the farthest side on both and red in color. Also, for the 5 wire reverse polarity trunk release, please tell how to wire this. Thanks a lot guys.,

The resistor direction does not matter as long as you wire them in series ( if you have more than one resistor that you are adding to get a certain value ). As far as the 5 wire for the trunk wire it like this: https://www.the12volt.com/doorlocks/page3.asp#5w but only use the one side of the two relays. ------------- Jeff

Sorry, I don't quite follow. Use only use the one side of the two relays? So I simply follow the diagram, but use one relay or the other, right. Want to be completely sure, as I am starting this install and hope not to run into any troubles. You know, out of all the people on this site, you have probably helped me out the most, Jeff, so I say a big Thanks.

No problemo !! Yes, you only need to use one of the two relays in the diagram because it's only one wire that you need to actuate , not two like most door lock/unlock circuits.

Ok. Things didn't go as planned. I wired everything up as directed. BTW, the alarm is a DesignTech First Defense Deluxe(29646), with the remote that can control 4 separate vehicles. The remote start is an Audiovox add on, not sure of the model #.
As for the alarm, I programmed the remotes and started checking everything out. I have no trouble with entry points triggering the alarm(pass/driver doors, trunk and hood) and the built in shock sensor is working just fine. The parking lights work fine, as well. However, the remote start is not being activated, though I tested it and the aux output that triggers it is fine. The Power locks aren't doing anything at all, and neither is the trunk pop. I have narrowed my troubles with all of these things to be the relays, but I haven't a clue what went wrong.
One idea I came up with for the trunk... The dash button for popping the trunk is a simple push-on switch with tow wires going to it. Couldn't I just tap into one of these wires for the trunk pop? I wired it as the left relay in the diagram linked above with no luck.
The locks... Once again I wired this as the diagrams showed. Since the alarm has built-in lock relays, could I just set the polarity to + and put the resistors inline to the locks?
I still don't know what I did wrong with the relay that goes between the AUX output and the remote start module. The output from alarm is - and so is the input. Link to relay? I will look for it as soon as I post this.
It seems I just don't have a good grasp on relays yet. Thanks in advance
Beginner.
