As Howard mentioned, there should be no need to "disable" the airbags while opening up the

steering column to access the Parking Light wire. As a matter of fact, if you are looking

for the (-) GREEN/ Black Parking Light wire at the Headlight switch connector, there is a

pictorial on a 2005 Sienna ( 2004 thru 2007 should be the same ) in the Pictorials Section.

The pictorial shows the required disassembly, the Headlight Switch Connector and a close-up

of the actual (-) GREEN/ Black Parking Light wire in the connector. Here is a link to the

pictorial : https://www.the12volt.com/installbay/forum_posts.asp~TID~131011~PN~1

The easiest way to "disable" the airbags is to pull the vehicles battery leads and wait 20

minutes ( probably 20 is overkill but airbags aren't cheap door trigger? - Page 3 -- posted image.

). Of course, with the battery

disconnected you have lost the ability to use a DMM ( set to V DC ) or a test light to locate,

test, and verify wires...

Soldering is fun!

Not that it matters in the end, but in the post referencing the dash lights not working, I believe this is a reference to dash lights that can specify exactly which door is open versus a light indicating that a [unknown] door is open. Without diode isolation and with all door triggers connected to the alarm/rs, the dash lights would always indicate that all doors were open at the same time instead of, say, just the driver's door for instance.

I connected the 12v, lock and unlock wires but the vehicle did not unlock. It locked and armed. I tested the unlock wire to 2 other wires to check if it would unlock but it did not. Today, I will test the wire if it is cut somewhere on the line. If it is good, then I'll look for that unlock wire again. If I'll find it, I'm done. Thanx

The Carbine needs to be set to double unlock for the unlock to work as Howie II said "double pulse for unlock"

Why is this site very slow in responding? Progres report. It was working fine last week until yesterday when the parking lights did not blink when armed/disarmed when the fuse from the white wire blew. When i replaced it, parking lights did not work again. In my '85 toyota pickup truck, this wire was connected to the parking light relay input but in the van, it was connected to the +12v suggested by the instruction. I was looking for the wire to the parking light relay input but I could not find it. Does anybody know what color it is? For now, this wire is just connected to ground suggested by the instruction, +12v or ground. The alarm is working only the parking lights do not blink when armed/disarmed. I'll try looking for pl relay input again when I have time/next week. I hope I'll find that "PL RELAY INPUT WIRE".
