Car Alarms: Galaxy 5000RS Install ?, dodge caravan, starter wire


Question
The last thing I need to do is connect the starter to my alarm. I
am installing a Galaxy 5000RS to a 96 dodge caravan. I need
some clarification on the wires coming from the alarm.  There
are two yellow wires. One that is Ignition Input and the other is
Ignition Output. Which one of these wires do I need to connect
to my starter relay? I am going by the relay diagram in the
manual. #87 not used. #86 is the Orange wire from alarm. #85
is witch Yellow wire from alarm? #87a ignition/starter wire from
key. #30 Violet wire from alarm and ignition wire to starter,
(cut). Do I need to put a Diode in this configuration? Also you
have ignition #2 as Blk/White, but the guy yesterday told me it
was Black/Orange? Can you clarify this? Thanks For all your
Help.
Ps. I think I just figured out the yellow wires. The Lager Ignition
“output” goes to DK Blue ignition wire on column. The thinner
Yellow Ignition “input” goes to the relay #85. Is this right?


Answer
Ok on starter kill-anti grind, set it up like so:
cut the starter wire in half.

pins 85 and 87a go to the key side of the cut wire.
Pin 30 goes to the starter side of the cut wire
Pin 87 is not used here. and the orange (small wire) from the 20 pin harness on the alarm goes to pin 86 to trigger.

You can put a 1 amp 1/4 watt n4001 diode across pins
86 and 85 to prevent feedback (suggested).

Done.
