So I bought this ebay remote door lock system a while ago, I have trouble wiring the lock and unlock function. The unit powers up and could hear the module clicked when i press the remote. I just got confused of where to wire the lock and unlock. I could locate where the wires are in my car, but this "instruction" that it came with didn't specify which wires are lock and which are unlock.
It is a 1996 Honda Civic LX, which already has power door lock. I just want the remote to work.

thanks in advance

Here is the manual that it came with, notice the last 6 wires where it says "Central control locks assorted wires", but it doesn't specify which are locks or unlocks.

Orange and ORANGE / black not used.
Yellow and yellow/black to a good ground point.
White lock trigger.
WHITE/ black unlock trigger.
Test.

Amateurs assume, don't test and have problems; pros test first. I am not a free install service.
Read the installation manual, do a search here or online for your vehicle wiring before posting.

Hi there, I got the same kit a few days ago, and this has been really helpful to figure out some stuff, but I still have a few questions. Mostly, what do the green and the two brown wires connect to, if anything?

The Green wire would probably be used to control a window roll-up module ( additional relays & wiring ). This would happen with a Lock command.

The two Brown wires are for command confirmation via the Parking Lights. There is no polarity marking, so use a Digital Multi Meter to see the output. Typically the Parking Lights get one flash for Lock and two flashes for Unlock. If they are +12V and your vehicle needs a +12V signal, you're all set.
