Hello,
Im trying to connect an external relay module for locking and unlocking the car doors using aftermarket actuators, the problem is that I don't have the manual for the alarm, but I can see that all Black Widows have a 3 pin output for the door, what is the configuration of these pins?, I understand that 2 are use to lock and unlock what about the third?....Any help will be appreciated.

The 3rd will be your polarity selector. I'm not familiar with BW alarm systems but most other systems that require you to fuse a 12 volt for add on actuators and use this diagram for the actuators. ------------- Jeff

What is the model number of the unit? And you're saying it's three wires on there, not five, right?
If it has five wires, that would mean it has onboard relays that can control the actuators.
If it has a three-pin plug, the two outer ones are for lock and unlock. The middle pin is a low-powered constant positive.....it can be used to supply power to terminal 85 of the relays but will NOT be strong enough to supply the high-current demand of terminal 30 of the relays.
So you should be able to safely assume that the two outer ones are the negative lock outputs. Connect each of them to terminal 85 on your relays, and if the locks work backwards, just swap them around.

I'm employed by a Black Widow dealer. You need the relay pack that comes with the Black Widow alarms. I have many. Let me know if you need me to send you one.
