My car is a 95 mazda protege dx.

I am going to install a keyless entry and my car is a one wire lock system.

I know that I have to use 2 relays with 2 resistors but I don't know

what resistors I have to use?

Please tell me the value of each resistor for lock and unlock that I have to use?

thank you

Looks like conflicting information for the 1995 Mazda Protege.

Here is info from Bulldog Security :
POWER LOCK GREEN / WHITE (TYPE B) IN PASSENGER KICK PANEL
POWER UNLOCK GREEN/ RED (TYPE B) IN PASSENGER KICK PANEL

Here is info from AudioVox:
Power Unlock WHITE/ BLUE (-) ONE WIRE SYSTEM Straight (-)
PowerLock WHITE/ BLUE (-) IN PLUG ON FUSE PANEL (-) thru 4.7k ohm resistor

meter would be your best bet honestly. resistances can vary from car to car. although lock ones are often common, i have had them be completely different from what diagrams say.

*Is there a lock switch? NOT door push, if so measure the resistance or resistances at the switch, that's my trick on the Voyager.
