It looks like the LOCK wires are: ORANGE NC contact to OEM LOCK signal WHITE   COM contact LOCK OUTPUT TO PDL MOTOR YELLOW NO contact for +12V feed UNLOCK wires are: ORANGE / BLACK NC contact to OEM UNLOCK signal WHITE/ BLACK   COM contact UNLOCK OUTPUT TO PDL MOTOR YELLOW/BLACK NO relay contact for +12V feed If you push the lock button, you should see momentary continuity between the white and yellow wires on the "Wire Set of Central door lock" Pushing the remote's unlock button, you should see momentary connection between between the WHITE/ black and yellow/black wires- If it works for unlock, I don't think programming would be the problem; should work for lock also, unless the module's out to lunch.

Hey, neat-o, when did posts become editable? Is that a recent thing? Like it-

thats the way i hooked it up but nomomentary connection between the WHITE/ black and yellow/black wires. i think the module is out, unless it has somthing to do with the dome light shut off switch some astros have, so if the doors are open you can hit the switch and shut them off to save battery. i herd sometimes you need a positive pulse door relay door lock circuit?

thanks for your help and info!   thegoose

Which figure in the Central Lock Installation Diagram are you using for the central lock wiring? Don't know the details of the Astro's lock control, but you may want to check to see if you need to use Fig 3, if the OEM setup holds both sides at ground. If it's like that, the lines from the OEM switch would have to be cut. If it uses a controller, then you should be able to to just apply a (+) pulse to the control lines, and the OEM controller does the rest. Should be able to check it by measuring the resistance of each of the lines to ground and see if it's high impedance or if it's grounded. Or let someone who's done an Astro tell you for sure-
