How to add remote start to 2017 Ram

[HarryS]

Ok, I'm confused. The wiring diagram shows two different pinouts for the hood switch, one with wires going to the PCM (remote start) and one with the wires going to the BCM (anti-theft). Anti-theft uses wires at 5 and 6 at the front module connector, and the 'remote start' has wires at 25 and 30, on the same connector. This is for the 2014

The wiring necessary goes to the BCM. I would disregard anything you currently have diagram wise and go off the info in this thread. I have a 2014 and used the info here to get mine working.

Fyi:
the wiring from the hood latch to the inline front-end connector under the PDC goes through either pins 5 & 6 on 1500 ( or 1 & 2 for 2500/3500) on the way to the PDC. (Ignore the start/ stop stuff)

Could be missing from the latch to the PDC and/or from PDC to BCM.

Thanks. My front end connector is wired for 5 and 6.
