Subaru Impreza central locking

Hi All,

I'm new to this forum , it was the only one I could find with good info on wiring ETC.

I'm currently thinking of wiring my ageing Pirahna MS2 alarm to work my CL in my Impreza(2000), I do have a fair idea of what is involved,the instructions for the alarm are very poor and don't really give you any good clear advice. I have already found the cars CL control box, under the dash to the right hand side of the fuse box. The only problem I am having is identifying the correct coloured cables to connect to on the cl control box.

Will I need a relay for this system or not??

I do have a wiring diagram for a legacy and it would seem that the control is negative switched and just a single wire, is this correct??

Many thanks for any advice or help given

blue/green lock

yellow/red unlock both are NEG(-) in the drivers kick use relays to guarantee a good strong signal.

KarTuneMan,

It would seem that the CL is triggered by a single white wire from the CL control box.

Break the wire = lock

Whilst the wire is set to ground a neg pulse on it unlocks.

I have made up a relay circuit to do this action and as of yet have not been able to fit it to the car, bloody English summer, it's pouring down!!!

Its all and up now running chaps, fitted it tonight and its a great improvement to the OEM infra red fob jobbie

It was a single white wire with silver dots on that goes to the CL control box, cut that and the doors lock, reconnect and put a neg pulse on the cable and doors unlock, I made up a relay to the diagrams for the nissan CL. Also on the Subaru you can pick up a constant +12v for the relay from the WHITE/ black stripe cable that also goes to the CL box, remember to use a fuse link though, I used a 0.5amp fuse.

Thanks go out to all who helped me with this. Its a great addition.

Cheers
