I have aftermarket actuators and I am trying to install a keyless entry system,but I am having problems doing so.I have wired the relays exactly as the diagram shows.I have completely tested all connections with a meter and they all test fine.The outputs from the system go to ground after being activated but the relays do not click therfore not locking or unlocking the doors.I have tested the relays and they are both good.Does anyone have any ideas as to what is going on?Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Exactly as shown meaning what? did the actualtors have just 2 wires each or 5 each?
Did you wire LIKE THIS?
Probe the wires coming from the keyless entry unit, are they pulsing ground or positive? Some have to be programmed to pulse negative.
what model keyless?

So the relays are not flipping.....
If your not hearing the relays and you have retested the unit wires to be pulsing negative at the relay posts then it has to be the positive side. Do they have positive at all times?

yes they have positive at all times.it is unusual what is going on.I have tested and retested all of the connections and terminals on relays and everything checks ok.

Last thing I can think is to pull the relays and bench test them. Maybe their bad.

you are using the omega line, do you have a DLS with relays?? if not you should get them. the DLS just plugs right into the unit and your done.
wire the motors to the other end and you can start using the keyless feature.
let me know if you can get the DLS part. or e-mail me and i will help you finish all of this. it is really a cake job with the right parts.

yes i do have a DLS,however when i got it ,it was wired for factory door locks on my ford ranger,but i don't have that,i have actuators.So i rewired the DLS to work in my situation.Is the DLS wiring unable to be changed like that?
