Tach= tachometer (engine speed)
I was trying to think of a way to turn off the motion sensor while the jeep is running. The optimal way would be to use the power and ground that the stock alarm uses, but I'm having a hard time finding that info. I know you just installed the remote, but this is my wife's jeep and she is lazy. If she has to set multiple things it just won't get done. So I am trying to think of ways to deactivate the sensor while the car is running.

My info center had been displaying open gate for a bit now on my used jku. I bought a latch today that didn't fix the problem. Searched the forum and came up with this thread. The detailed info on the gate trigger wire & it's symptoms when it was spliced into led me to a cut in that wire between the doors on the passenger side right underneath the seat belt retract mechanism. A quick splice job and now all my interior lights work correctly. Just wanted to say thanks for a detailed write up.

Camera?
I'm having a lot of trouble with vandalism and would like to wire a DVR camera into the alarm system. Would be possible to connect a DEI 528T Pulsetimer Relay to the second stage trigger of the DEI 508D Motion Sensor to turn on a camera for 60 seconds? I've found some cameras that will immediately start recording when they have power.

Remote Start
I really like your write-up and I think installing a 5 prong auto relay could resolve your issue with the false alarm while driving. You could wire the relay so that when ignition current (any switched source that is on only when the ignition is on) is present, the circuit is open and the signal to the oem gate wire doesn't get there. Then when the ignition current is gone, the circuit closes and your the proximity module is allowed to send a signal to the oem gate wire. That would ultimately make this setup a perfect addition to the factory alarm.
BTW, if you have remote start, you have to be careful to find a switched source that's active with remote start and ignition start. After trial and error, I Eventually I found an unused spot in the fuse block that worked.

2014 JKU Rubicon X wiring. Does anyone have the wiring diagram (pinouts write colors) and location of the factory alarm? Where is the trigger wire located in the front? Any pictures would be great as well. Thank you.

Blown 3 Fuses
I installed a switch and the relay. I keep on blowing the constant 12v cigarette lighter fuse. Has this happened to anyone. Also I used 16 gauge wire because I had it lying around. Should I go for a bigger fuse or maybe install an inline fuse?
