Alarm help...how to connect door wiring?
OK, heres the Q. I need to connect the alarm wire to the "negative door trigger wire". The instructions say it's the wire is probably in the kick panel or under the dash. Great, big help!! The instructions also mentioned hooking up to the dome light as another method.
Anyhow, the alarm is an Audiovox Prestige APS-20A. There is one wire that is to cover the opening of both doors and the trunk to trigger the alarm. So....... which wire do I hook this up to? What color is it? Where is it? If nothing else, a website for a really good wiring schematic would be great. Thanks in advance.
Oh yeah, same prob with locating the right place to connect the parking lights so they "flash" when the alarm is armed.

if its for the camaro in your signature then the door trigger wire is in a blue plug at the BCM, trunk/hatch wire is "orange/black" at the BCM. You will have to tie the trunk/hatch wire in with the trigger wire where you connect it to the alarm if you want the alarm to go off if the rear hatch is opened. here is the wiring code if you need it, you will probably have to cut and paste it into wordpad or notepad to get it to align properly.

Notes:
NOTE: This vehicle is equipped with VATS. Refer to directfax document #1049 for interface information when installing remote start. *1 The PCM is located under the hood on the passenger side inner fender at the firewall. On the V6 the wire is located in pin 54, and on the V8 the wire is located in pin 10. *2 The BCM is located in the passenger kick, just in front of the blower motor. *3 The tan will unlock the drivers door and the gray/black will unlock the passenger door. Wire each as a 5-wire system with separate relays. See direct fax document #1052. *4 Not all models include this circuit. *5 Use gray/black for the drivers door and black/white for the passengers door. Both triggers must be diode isolated. *6 Some models are equipped with a factory alarm. The only way to disarm these alarms is with the factory remote or turning on the ignition. To turn off the factory alarm, 'see direct fax document #1051'.
