Hello  there,

I'm trying to hook up a falcon easy fit predator alarm to my 1997 VW polo. I'm trying to estabish the door lock/unlock wires. I've looked at the Vaccum pump in the boot, and found Grey/red (lock) & Grey/Black (Unlock). Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe these are positive trigger, and the wires i'm looking for.

Any help appreciated

Many thanks

regards

AP

Also when you interface with the vacuum locks you have to be able to set longer lock and unlock pulses, generally around 2 seconds is sufficient for each.

Thank you guys.

I am using  2 relays to power the locks. I've got the unlock output working, but the lock doesn't work.

Ive got lock input from alarm to 86- relay 1

30 (relay 1) to lock wire (Grey/Red)

87 on both relays to fused +12V

85  (relay) 1 to 86 (relay2) both to +12v fused

85 (relay2) to unlock output

30 (relay 2) to door unlock wire (Grey/black)

Is this correct?

Thanks

Your colours are correct but pick them up at the front, pos going on that model and you won't need a delay.

Thanks for that Howie.

All working fine now, it was a faulty relay on the door lock circuit. Repalced it, and all is working fine.

Much appreciated
