How do you hook up the locks on a 1993 Ford Thunderbird? Which wires do you hook up to? Also how do you get the trunk to work? If anyone can help, please do. Thanks in advance.

I wired it up like the five wire alternating pulse and all it does is pop fuses. Why? Any ideas? Please help. Thanks in advance.

Well if it came equipped with factory keyless then it's not 5-wire reverse, it's negative (type B), for nega tive, u would have to reconnect the car's lock and unlock wires, and then just tap into them using ur alarm's lock and unlock wires...
Are your sure you installed the 5-wire reverse right?
look at this:

Tried wiring like the diagram but no luck. What could my problem be. Please help. Thanks in advance! Jeff do you have a clearer picture? When I tried to click on the 5 wire link it comes out too small to read. Thanks.

Thanks for the picture Jeff. I have not tried that wiring yet. If one of the switch's is broke will this make the whole lock/unlock not work? Thanks in advance!
