Hello again folks,
I am installing (installed) a remote car starter/alarm into my car - the only feature I don't have working at the moment is the keyless entry.
how/where do I wire my unit in?
I found
this diagram and I am pretty sure it pertains to the wiring of the door locks in our cars, however when I cut the wires (this car had a unit in it before, a previous owner removed it, so I can see where wires were cut before) then try giving each wire a +ve pulse I keep blowing the fuse on my test wire (20 amp fuse wired directly to battery simply to test which was lock and which was unlock)
Now in reading some more I see that the switch is "mastered" from the passengers side... whatever this means? I do know the switch on the passengers side doesn't work, however I have yet to tear the kick pannel apart to see what is wrong (all connections in/on the door are fine)
The more I think about it - the more I think that the previous unit was removed and wires were just never re-connected to the switch... but I thought I'd give a shout out for some advice anyways.
I was just out at the car again - nothing on the passengers side is touched - however I can see/feel the wiring harness from that side going over towards the drivers side.. guess I'll wait for someone to respond here
I haven't 5 wired yet... but my sheet tells me:
Power Lock lt. blue either kick panel
Notes: Non keyless cars, locks are 5wi (type C) and they are mastered from the passenger side switch. Keyless cars, locks are positive trigger (type A).
Power Unlock white either kick panel
Notes: Non keyless cars, locks are 5wi (type C) and they are mastered from the passenger side switch. Keyless cars, locks are positive trigger (type A)."
sorry I can't help more man.
Well first off we need to know what year car it is
also i see you say acuple times it had keyless entry before,now unless he remove the hole factorty unit whitch is 100% stupid.
You have (+) type locks
you will need two 5 pin bosch style 30/40 amp relays in either root you go
now i don't know who told you to test your locks like that but damn thats funny and thats why your poping your 20 amp fuses.
if you think these are type c locks and it says the master side,take of the door panel locate witch wire you think is lock and unlock(i'll give you the colours if your still have problems and cut the unlock wire.
now take your DMM with the volt scale and see if you get a reading and if the doors lock(press the button) if it doesn't work conect it and see if they lock if so then theres your lock wire same with unlock.
this tells you a little but i like my way better
To determine what type of door lock switch you are working with, follow these three steps:
Locate the harness plugged directly into the back of the door lock switch. If there are no external door lock switches, you will most likely have a vacuum type system or an *aftermarket door lock system with relays, or have an added actuator that needs relays.
Next, with your multi meter, probe each of the wires in this harness and write down the readings during lock, unlock, and at rest positions of the switch. Be sure to measure for continuity to ground as well as positive DC voltage and pay close attention to any changes in voltage, resistance, and the duration of pulses. If the switch is illuminated when the lights are turned on, find this wire(s) first and ignore it.
Now compare your readings to those listed below.

Heres a diagram if it is a 5 wire type
