Default Remote Start Install Assistance

Is there anyone on here who might be able to help me finish installing a remote start? I will make a more detailed post if anyone can help.

So here's what I'm working with:


These are the directions that go along with the Xpresskit PKALL:




These are the directions that go along with the Avital 4103:




I also found these instructions online for a similar BullDog system:

I don't care about any of the anti-theft stuff so if I can ignore any of those wires that'll be a plus. The door locks I can finish myself (haven't had any time). I would like to know what remaining wires are necessary for the remote start.

1)My first question involves D2D. I believe that allows me to connect to an external computer and read information from the ranger. I don't want/need to do that so I'm assuming I can install without D2D. The directions say to cut the connector but then connect to a +12V source. Is that a constant source or ignition ON source?

2) I have no idea what any of the satellite harness connections mean or where those wires would be located.

3) I don't plan on using any of the anti-theft stuff so the only wire I would need on the 5-pin remote start harness would be the tachometer input, right?

4) I also have no idea where to start with the 9-pin Main Harness.

Since your truck has pats system you are going to have to program the module and you need 2 keys to do it.

The PKALL directions list the 2000 ranger as only needing one key. I have two keys but I guess we'll have to see what works.

So I managed to get everything working with the help of a wise forum member. I will be posting some general instructions later on.

Jswifto, I only had to use one key to program the PKALL. Rangers made after July 2000 need 2 keys for the PKALL. I'm sure it's different for each type of bypass.

The BARE-BONES wiring for the Avital 4103 One-way remote start and PKALL bypass requires only a few wires. The ones highlighted are needed at a bare minimum:
