Installing a keyless entry in a 2002 Dodge Ram

Hi, I am new to this board and I know very little about cars and trucks. I was wondering if anyone could help with installing a keyless entry in my 2002 Dodge Ram 3500 Diesel dually. I have electric looks now and have purchased a keyless entry system off of ebay, but the directions are very vaugh at best. It does list what each color wire goes to, but does anyone know where I could get a wiring diagram for my truck that would show where the correct wires are and there colors? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Heres a breakdown on the colors and locations.

12V|pnk/blk & red/wht |+ |ignition harness |
| STARTER|yellow |+ |ignition harness |
| IGNITION|blue (16 awg) |+ |ignition harness |
| SECOND IGNITION|red or red/wht |+ |ignition harness |
| ACCESSORY|green & orange |+ |ignition harness |
| SECOND ACCESSORY|blue & blk/wht *7 |+ |ignition harness |
| POWER LOCK|white/green *1 |- |driver kick panel |
| POWER UNLOCK|same wire | | |
| LOCK MOTOR|tan/pnk or tan/blk | |driver kick panel |
| UNLOCK MOTOR|blue | |driver kick panel |
| DISARM DEFEAT|tan/white | |passenger kick panel |
| PARKING LIGHTS +|black/yellow | |relay under hood at pwr ctr |
| PARKING LIGHTS -|purple/yellow *2 | |headlight switch |
| HEADLIGHTS|purple/yellow *2 |- |headlight switch |
| DOOR TRIGGER|*3 |- |*3 |
| DOME SUPERVISION|use door trigger | | |
| FCTRY ALARM ARM|lt green/orange *4 |- |driver kick panel |
|FCTRY ALRM DISARM|same wire | | |
| DISARM NO UNLOCK|same wire | | |
| TACHOMETER|NOT green/orange | |ign coil, coil pac, injector|
| SPEED SENSE|white/orange | |wht conn. 2, pin 27 @ PCM *5|
| BRAKE WIRE|white/tan |+ |brake pedal switch |
| HORN TRIGGER|black/red |- |steering column |
| WIPERS|brn/wht(L),rd/yel(H)|+ |wiper motor |
| LF WINDOW UP/DN|lt blue - white |A |driver window switch |
| RF WINDOW UP/DN|brn/wht - pur/wht |A |driver kick panel |
| LR WINDOW UP/DN|red/blk - blu/wht |A |driver kick panel |
| RR WINDOW UP/DN|grn/wht - gry/blk |A |driver kick panel |
| RADIO 12V|pink |+ |radio |
| RADIO GROUND|black/green |- |radio |
| RADIO SWITCH|brown/red |+ |radio |
| RADIO ILLUMINATE|orange/blue (dimmer)|+ |radio |
| LF SPEAKER|lt grn/rd-lt grn/grn| |radio or amplifier *6 |
| RF SPEAKER|lt blu/pu-lt blu/blk| |radio or amplifier *6 |
| LR SPEAKER|wht/red - wht/blk | |radio or amplifier *6 |
| RR SPEAKER|tan/pur - tan/blk | |radio or amplifier *6 |


Notes:
NOTE: For the 2002 Ram 2500/3500, refer to the 2001 techsoft sheet. NOTE: Chrysler vehicles that use a gray ignition key have an immobilizer system that needs to be bypassed when remote starting. Use DEI part number 555C or 555U. *1 Lock requires a negative trigger thru a 820 ohm resistor. Unlock requires a negative trigger thru a 330 ohm resistor. MUST use relays. *2 Parking lights require a negative trigger thru a 330 or 1.4K ohm resistor. Headlights require a negative trigger thru a 1.8K ohm resistor. There is a rest resistance on the wire, so MUST use a relay to isolate away from the switch. *3 The LF door trigger is tan, and the LR door is tan/orange or purple/orange. These wires are in the driver kick panel. The RF door trigger is tan/red, and the RR door is tan/yellow. These wires are in the passenger kick panel. Use all wires and diode isolate each. See directfax document #1076 for wiring information. *4 This will also do door locks. Arm/lock is negative trigger thru a 2K ohm resistor. Disarm/unlock is negative trigger thru a 480 ohm resistor. Single pulse will do disarm without unlocking the doors. Unlock requires a double pulse. MUST use relays. *5 The PCM (Powertrain Control Module) is on the passenger side firewall. *6 The amplifier is located behind the glove box. *7 These wires may not be necessary for remote start.

hope it helps....

Be very carefull on the BCM when you go to do the doorlocks and domelight supervision. They are very finicky! :sly:

I don't see why anyone would want to do this.

You're ready enough to take the time and spend the money to install this into your truck, but you're too lazy to use a key to get into your truck instead? This doesn't make sense to me.

I put it on my 01 1500. It was something that I had always wanted.

It's all in convenience. Besides, it gives a little better resale.

I bet the money you'd get on resale, wouldn't even cover the amount of money and time you spent putting that in.

Whatever though, I probably do some stupid things too.

Yeah maybe. Resale depends on so many things. If the vehicle is trashed, you never get high $$ no matter what.

You know, I do basic keyless entries a lot for dealerships. Mostly on the used cars. I have some huge dealers that want to have keyless entry on just about every good, clean car they bring in. Some even go as far as to have remote starts/keyless entries to bring more money on a car. It gives them more barganing power even though the products are aftermarket. So to answer your question, I would say that keyless entry can help resale. Trust me, dealers do not spend money on things they do not think they will make some $$ on.
