Default No Start with OEM Vehicle Theft Alarm

I found this TSB 08-24-00 when searching for other diagnosis procedures. http://dodgeram.info/tsb/group_08.htm


Anyway it diagnoses a "No Start" with a vehicle theft alarm (VTSS) and I though I would share for future diagnosis. I found it strange that most CTMs are supplied voltage through the power door lock fuse. Anyway, if you start looking at wiring schematics you find all sorts of strange things like hot ground lines when a switch is not engaged. This could be the main issue with aftermarket alarms and "No Start".

Just passin along the info!

Do you if the factory one can be a problem with mine. I have replaced the batt, the cam shaft postion sensor, and the crankshaft postion sensor. It is firing but it doesn't want to start.

I think you should check it out. I would also try to put some ether in the throttle body and try to start it. Your issue could be related to a fuel pump. But this conversation should be continued over in your thread: https://dodgeforum.com/forum/1st-gen...e-durango.html
