Hello! What a great forum. OK, I have the KE-30 and its all installed, followed the directions 3 things I need to know how to fix or if anybody else has had these issues:

1. If the car is locked, and you come back say 10 or more mins later, the unlock doesn't work, I can hear the lock mechinism moving, but the doors don't unlock. Now, if you unlock the door with the key and stand there and press lock, then unlock it will work every time. It only seems to happen if some time has passed.

2. When I lock/unlock the car the parking lights/dome light will flash at first then stay on for a period of time. Does anyone know how to shorten the amount of time the lights stay on?

3. I have the starter wire that I can disconnect and the car won't crank over, but when I connect the orange wire to it from the KE-30 module, it doesn't ground out and the car will still start. Now do I have to have a seperate relay? Or can I just hook up the orange wire to the starter wire that is under the dash by the steering column?

# 1.... Are you Locking the Door at the Door Panel or Locking with the Remote "Always" ??  If you are Locking at the Door Panel, your unit may need to see a Lock, then Unlock with Remote.  It may have a "Flip-Flop" Circuit.

# 2...... Your unit probably has a built in Timer for approx 30 seconds to 1 Minute or Until you turn Ignition ON

# 3..... Starter Kill requires a Relay.  I hope you DID NOT hook Orange wire directly to your Starter wire.  You could cause damage to your Unit.

for your first question; did you test the wires you used for the lock/unlock from the switch on the driver door, or from the passenger door key cylinder? If you used the wires that test as a negative trigger from the driver lock switch, you will also have to hook up the child safety wire.
Did you use the blue wire on the bottom of the fuse box for your (-)unlock?

First let me say thanks! for the replys.

Ok, this is how I determined which color wires to hook up to my blue and green wire from my unit.  I pulled the door lock switch out of the drivers door, saw the wires were dkgreen and lightgreen. tested them to figure out which was lock and which was unlock and at the orange plug at the bottom of the fuse block, that's what I hooked up the blue and green wire from my unit to. Child safety wire? OK, I read somewhere about that, but I'm not sure as to where that goes or how its hooked up. Should I have pulled the passgener doors lock/unlock switch out and look at the wire color coding there? and hooked up the blue/green wire from my unit to those? The funny thing is, the auto lock/unlock works great, the unti will lock ok, and if I hit the lock button, then do unlock, it works, if I use the key to unlock then lock the car with the remote and then unlock it works, but if I have the car closed up, use the lock, then come back and try to unlock it a lttle time later. I doesn't even send a pulse. Just the lights flash and the dome light comes on. Thats it, but If I use the key and unlock it, then it will lock/unlock fine. I will do a search about this child safety wire that you are talking about, Maybe this is my problem. Becuase I did use the wires from the master switch, but didn't install another wire.

That sounds like the child safety thing kicking in. I'm not sure what it's intended purpose is, but it will disable the unlock is certain situations. The wire you'll need to hook up to is a plain blue wire in an orange plug on the bottom of the front of the fuse box. The wire will show a negative pulse when you turn the key in the passenger door lock, not the switch on the inside.
