I have a small problem with the install in the integra. Everything went in fine apart fromt eh central locking. but later that night the guy said he had a couple of problems
1st his left headlight wan't working (replaced Bulb Everythings OK)
2nd when in car his internal clock and Trunk open Light in the cluster seem to be flashing when you open the door they come on permanently. I checked my door trigger and boot trigger connections again they are fine. I temperarily remedied the problem Via the Boot light switch. when i turned it off all together. the clock and light on the dash went out. also when i turned it on or the dome light on they flashed with the other lights.
I'm pretty sure my connections are all good. the lights are flasking with the same interval as a turn signal but i can't hear any relays clicking
any Idea's (also i checked all the fuses in the Cab)
Also i don't think the alarm is at fault because problem persists with harness plugged out of brain.
ANy suggestions would greatly be appreciated

for some reason can be a back feed form the trunk or door trigger.

so i basically put a diode on the door trigger wire silver stripe facing the switch. and same with the trunk just to block negative current from going back to the switch

this has been doing my nut in the last couple of days then something hit me today i took the drivers door switch out to check the colour of the wire. the car is old and when i put the screw back in it could have been a bad earth then. what do you reckon guys could this be it. if not i will go with the above suggestion

OK i solved the problem it was so stupid of me i'm embarressed to post it. but i'm going to in the hope that people reading it will learn from my mistake.
All my wiring was right i knew that.
My first instincts the other night was a fuse was blown so i got the test light out(cos it was getting dark and its easy to see). i tested all fuses and they where ok. today i tried the door pin for continuity and it has0.9 so that was ok. I checked the fuses again with multimeter. one of the fuses read 12V on one side and 1.3V obviously enough to light the test light the other night.
moral of the story Always, Always use a DMM
would have saved me time. I hope somebody lears from this and my embarrassment is worth while
