Ok so Im try to get this squared away I just bought a 2005 ram over head computer and I'm trying to figure out what the colors mean or if I can even use it. Is this this a PCI BUS or CAN BUS
This is what it looks like




three wires for the lights
wire 1. black
wire 2. yellow with green tracer
wire 3. yellow with tan tracer

four wires for the computer
wire 1. pink with a green tracer
wire 2. red
wire 3. white with a violet tracer
wire 4. black with white tracer

 

Okay, you have an OTIS unit w/Homelink. I am assuming you don't have an overhead console at all right now?

Pink/Green: Key on power
Red: Constant power
White/Violet: Data Link Connection (PCI bus I'm assuming)
Black/White: Ground

As for the lights, one wire will go to the switches for the reading lights and that will be constant power, the other is the dome light function. Black will be your ground.

 

Sweet, I hope this is right! But no I do knot have a console right now and I plan to install this in my dakota, I am assuming that the PCI BUS wire on this will hook up to a dakotas BUS which is violet w/ a yellow tracer

 

There is no dimmer? Also where would you suggest that I run the constant/key on?

 

See if this helps, I put one in my wife's Liberty with it.
