Let's sort this one out properly. If you ground either of the two blue , bluw/white wires at the door module, you will either control the door locks on both doors or just the passenger side. If only the passenger side you will need to fit a solenoid to control the locking. EITHER way you will have to bring 2 cables out to the driver's door; I know its a bitch on Civics.

Thankyou for taking the time to reply, but PLEASE JUST READ MY FIRST POST FULLY. It really does explain all this.
I do not need to add anything. I need to FIX/replace something
If you read my first post, it says that the functionality I am looking for was THERE FROM THE FACTORY, by Honda, before I touched anything and while the alarm was previously in the car.
That functionality is: pull drivers door latch & it activates its own(drivers) actuator which somehow activates passenger activator so both doors lock/unlock(&both actuators activate) when you lock the drivers door with its latch or via the key.
Something changed/broke when I gave 12V to the wires supposed to get ground. I'm trying to determine what broke/changed.

In the drivers door, there are 4 wires from inside the car to the relay:

Ground
Blue/Red
GREEN/ Red
WHITE/ Green (12V constant)

What signal do you get on these wires when you lock the pass actuator manually?  When you unlock?

Please don't yell at me, I'm only looking for more info.

I never checked if there was any change in those when locking the passenger door lock. I'm pretty passenger door latch never activated even its own actuator when you locked it - it just locked the bars with the latch pulling the bars. I'll check when I next look get at it.
Sorry, just getting a little frustrated at this stage - nothin in your post to make me yell anyway - you asked a clear, specific question which I had not provided an answer to, and which may help in resolving this.
And admittedly, its my own impatience/stupidity that has me in this predicament in the first place(rushing into giving 12V to the wires I should have been grounding).
