Hey I was just wondering when I get my alarm can I hook up the Aux outputs to my air suspension? So say i push the Trunk open button it raises or drops the whole truck. And when I arm it the truck drops and when i dis-arm it the truck rises??

1. For the truck to drop/raise with the aux outputs i can just put a relay and hook it up to all the valves. But the problem is do you think they pulse sent by the alarm will be long enough?

2. Do u guys have ne ideas to make the truck drop when the alarm is armed and to raise when the truck is dis-armed?

Lemme hear some ideas. Thanks.

BTW it takes a little less than a second to raise/drop my truck.

It should be possible. Most alarms will pulse for at least a second, and I know with a lot of DEI models the trunk/aux channels will pulse as long as the transmitter button is held down.

what type of alarm are you going with? On some models you can program the latching time of the aux outputs.

Figure out what you need, a one second pulse, the validity pulse (the alarm pulse, pulses as long as you hold the button) or timed (it pulses for x amount of time). Then find an alarm that offers those features. I heard Predator and Command Start have 9 aux outputs (all programmable pulsed latched or timed) on some models.
