First post, thanks for any support.

I have a '86 Porsche 944 with manual door locks. Installing a Viper 2400, and started to a door lock actuator install using two wire actuators. Got frustrated with adjusting them, so went to eBay and bought a pair of factory door lock actuators and mounts. I didn't get any factory relays.

I initially planned on doing a simple three wire Type-A install, but the factory actuators have five wires and I'd hate to not add additional functionality since I already have the interior torn out.

Two of the five wires (#1 & #5) operator the actuator (green/blue functionality).

Of the remaining three wires, one gets continuity from the other two depending on the lock position (#3 gets continuity through #2 when locked, and through #4 when unlocked).

QUESTION: How can I wire this up so that locking or unlocking one door does the same to the other (or at least the driver's door actuates the passenger side door?) Is there an existing diagram? I already looked at the five-wire diagram, but not sure its correct (or maybe I'm unsure of how to wire the actuators?)

Any help?

You'll need a door lock controller for a 5 wire actuator. Allows drivers door (master) to control passenger door (slave). SPAL and MES have them
