Alarm Wiring Advise Needed - Toyota Yaris Forums

Palmer, I went and tried the relay with no direct luck. I setup the relay with the blue/white on the coil, a 12V+ on the other coil terminal. Black/White (NSS) into the switch, chassis ground on the other. Nothing.

However, if I ground the black/white wire, the car THEN will provide a ground to the blue/white wire. Sort of backwards as to how I would set it up.

This just means I'll keep the black/white grounded, then use the blue/white to trigger a relay, turning on the optical circuit, which would then bypass the clutch switch. Not the way I wanted to do it, but I guess it will have to work.

Thanks again for your help.

And CTScott, as usual, your idea worked like a charm! Thanks again!
