It's a negative trigger.

if you go to this link it will give you wire colour and location for everything you need to install a remote start or alarm on your car.

Good luck!

Gahh...

When referring to door locks- they aren't called triggers... You must be confusing lock wires with the actual door trigger wire(s).

If your cavalier has factory keyless entry, then your door locks are positive. If you do not have factory keyless, then they are 5-wire.

The door lock wires are located @ the BCM or in the passenger or drivers kick- I don't remember.

Power Lock -----------lt. blue
Power Unlock --------white

Generally- a half decent alarm will have outputs for both negative & positive locks on the same harness... 1 wire will have a dual purpose- Usually Neg. unlock & Pos. lock... Pay attention to the wires... You would use the one that says Negative Unlock & Positive Lock as your lock wire. Follow?

BTW- Bulldog sucks.

WIRE COLOR POLARITY LOCATION
Power Unlock WHITE (REV) IN HARNESS IN PASSENGER KICKPANEL
LOCK WIRES WILL BE (+) IF THE VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED WITH OEM KEYLESS ENTRY.
PowerLock LIGHT BLUE (REV) IN HARNESS IN PASSENGER KICKPANEL
LOCK WIRES WILL BE (+) IF THE VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED WITH OEM KEYLESS ENTRY.

see all this is true and good and fine, but you always wanna test the wires b4 connecting anything. trigger wire is an ok way to say it, but better to say lock/etc with negative trigger. as these wires are "trigger wires" for the relays in the car. you should check out the multiplexed wires on some of the newer cars......wires like in our cars i call "the easy ones".
