I installed an Avital 2200 series (with keyless entry) into my 1990 Honda Civic DX Hatchback. I also put in aftermarket actuators at the same time. The alarm is working okay, but has a few problems.
First, the accessories are no longer working (dome light, radio, cig lighter). Also, when I step on the brake pedal, the "no seatbelt" light flashes on the instrument panel.
Also, whenever I arm the alarm it goes into Bypass Notification for the door pin zone. I hooked up the alarm to the door pin wire (grn/red) underneath the back seat and ran it up to the alarm. Like i also said earlier, the dome light doesnt work when you open the doors, or even when you turn it into the "on" position.
Additionally, the alarm is supposed to lock the doors 3 seconds after you turn on the ignition and unlock them after it is turned off. It unlocks them fine, but does not do the locking.
Other than all that, everything is ok. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Please let me know what I have messed up on and the appropriate wires and/or locations. Thanks!
