05 tahoe dome light problem

All,

I just replaced my crime stopper alarm with a new GALAXY 5000RS-2W-2FM.  Everything is working well with one exception, When the alarm arms and the doors lock, it triggers the dome light to come on and them dim out again.  This is causing the alarm to think a door is open and the alarm chirps.  Then a few seconds later, the alarm works just fine.

Any thoughts on what I missed or crossed during the installation?  The crimestopper worked fine.  I only replaced it so it matched the alarm in my other vehicle and I can use one remote to control both cars.

I am using the dome light as the door trigger the same way I did with the crimestopper.  Do I need to switch and use the 4 wires on the purple plug of the BCM and if so, can someone explain the diode isolation to me?  I think all I need to do is tap one end of each diode into the 4 wires and connect the other 4 ends to the alarm trigger wire correct?

Thanks,

Delorian

What bypass are you using? It doesn't have a door trigger output? The easiest thing to do would be to use the dome light delay setting on the Scytek. Catching each door trigger by itself isn't gonna be easy on that vehicle.

I have the 457GW.

I'll have to read over the manule again to see what it says about the dome light delay.

Thanks,

Are you talking about this option?

Yep, that's it.

It seems the server was down for a while this morning, maybe it was just me...

At any rate, changing that setting worked.  Weird thing is, it doesn't blip the dome light on when arming now either. 

Thanks for the help!
