05 Kia Optima, Omega Mars 22

lnbrgr78 wrote: Alright, installed the mars 22 on the 05 optima tonight.  Went off without a hitch except for the locks.  All the diagrams I've found show white & blue at the etacs.  The problem I've run into is that I've found about 52 blue wires & 24 white wires (maybe I exagerate a bit).  Can anyone tell me more specific directions to these wires or tell me how to test for them?  Thanks in advance.  Mo, Pass4 worked great, thanks for all your help.

This stuff is unbelievable to me.....  how can ppl install alarms and RS without testing OR EVEN KNOWING HOW to test wires.  You are lucky you didn't FRY something.

Alright mike, for your information, I am perfectly aware of how to test wires, and also for your information I test every wire I connect, before I connect it, just not very familiar with door lock systems and am not sure if I need to be checking for voltage, 12v+, ground, or resistance.  This board is a great asset to many many newbies to the world of audio & electronics and I'm pretty sure that's what it's here for, to get help when you find something that you don't know, therefore I see no obvious reason for you to be here since you obviously know it all.  If you're not part of the solution then you're part of the problem, but thanks for the support!  Have a merry christmas!

Should be a BLACK Plug on side of Fuse Box / ETACSDon't know exactly which.....I usually Meter & 99 % of the time I forget to write it down.........MO
