7109, Alarm install with pics
Posted by mikelrry, Sep-07-03 09:03 AM
I'm trying to find an alarm install with the pics of the wires that i need to use. I try the search and i have found where the wires are located but none with pic. I dont know if it is out there but i have found it for my other car so there is a chance. But any help would be great. thanks:thumbsup ;(

i dont think there is one, ive search many-a-times.

luckily, our alarm install is pretty staight forward. 90% of the work is under the drivers side part of the dash. i would recommend removing the panel under the steering wheel for easier access. also, remember to hide the alarm brain somewhere (under the center consol is a good idea), and wrap al the wiring in electrical tape/black loom to keep it stock looking.

if you need any advice on installing it, there are MANY knowledgabe people on this board who can help you out, XtremeRS being the best. ;)

its really not as bad as you think. for a basic install you only have to make 5 basic connections...maybe more if you have power windows and wanna use the alarm as keyless entry also. for the basic all you have to do is hook up a switched 12v+ (when the car is in the "on" position) a constant 12v from the battery, ground, your headlights (if you want them to flash) a ground, door trigger, and ground. i just installed another alarm last week and lots of people came by and were blown away that i could install my own alarm. its just all the wires that scares people. its as easy as installing a head unit (if you have to cut/splice wires) only diff is you have to hunt for the wires. as long as you got a sheet of where they are and the colors its cake. i have the one from crutchfield if you need it. its dead on.

sure, NP bro.

constant 12v white runs under steering shaft

switched 12v black/white runs under steering shaft

starter black/red runs under steering shaft

parking lights white/green (+) fuse junction box

door pin switch red/green/silver dots (-) below door sills

this is your basic hookup for a basic alarm setup. let me know if you need anything else

parking light output goes to the green/white wire under the dash on the left. same one you tap into when you hook up indiglo gauges. you must verify that your alarm is set for + parking light output. if you do a search for a writeup indiglo gauge installation you'll find pics of the wire and where it's located.

the door locks is prolly the most confusing part of an install. this is b/c there's a whole shitload of different wiring methods for different cars. ours are a negative trigger i believe... (i didn't have stock power locks, mine are aftermarket so it's a little different). you usually hafta connect different wires on the alarm itself depending what type of locking system you have.
