  1. I really hope I'm not misleading you, it's just a thought. I'd do a search for "false triggers, alarms" and see what you can find. There's allot of wires and the instructions aren't user friendly on purpose, but I think clifford, viper , excaliber and others are all the same manufacture. Good Luck! If you don't know the installer I'd ask him to show me the diodes when you go back to him and see what he say. Check out "the12volt" for sure, allot of good info. on alarms over there and I've seen some good help given.
  2. Try going to bulldog security and do a search for your vehicle. They may have a note as to what I'm referring to on the door/dome light trigger wires. They should have schematics and such for free.
  3. I believe the trunk release is built in to the alarm wiring harness, one of them anyway. However, that's not at all what I was referring to.
  4. I'm no expert by any means, I'd also look int "the 12volt" forum. I recently installed a 5002 on my ranger and one of the things I ran across is that you have to diode isolate the door trigger wires/dome light depending on which wire is used, maybe the trunk as well. It had something to do with the eec "throwing" everything to ground after a period of inactivity. I believe this will false trigger the alarm. I read that it usually happens ~two hours of inactivity, but who knows. I don't know for sure this is your problem, just a guess, but I'd ask the installer if he used diodes to isolate the doors/dome light depending on which wire he used and if he installed them in the correct direction. A diode blocks + in one direction and - in the other, it depends on what you need it to do. I hope you get this sorted out, soon. Good luck!
