Hi folks,

I bought a remote door lock for my wife's Caravan. I am very adept at auto wiring but never seen a wiring system like this one. The technician that sold me the system gave me all the resistors and relays I need but IO cant get the door locks to fire.

Just to test the system, I tapped into the PURPLE / dGreen wire and rand a 2K and then tried a 5.3K ohm resistor to ground.

It should have locked with one and unlocked with the other but nothing at all happens .

Can anyone give me some suggestions on how to apply the negative trigger ?

Thanks

Are you sure you have the right PURPLE / green wire? There is more than one in that plug and I believe it is more of a light green than a dark green on the 05's.

Thx for reply Mike. You are correct. After posting this, I went back out to the garage and saw thdre were several wires with the same code and I was using the wrong connector. I got all the wiring figured out and even dry tested the negative ground triggers. Now, I just have to do the final assembly :)

Thx again !
