I am having trouble locating the correct wires for the door lock and unlock in my 2003 Maxima SE. Everything I find says that the wires are as follows:

Lock: Orange and Black (-)

Unlock: Orange and Blue ( -)

Trunk Release: Pin #16 Blue wire in SECU.

I have diode isolated each output from the alarm system and nothing will work on the locks. The blue wire does nothing for the trunk release either. I actually cut the ORANGE / black wire in half and the locks still worked???

Can anyone assist?

Where are you getting the wires? The door lock wires are in the door module. The trunk wire is High Current = Need a realy to provide High current ground - the alarm (-) output is no enough. Let me know what you find.

I also show a tan/blk for lock. And a tan/blue for unlock (double pulse) inside drivers door, on the bottom of the switch.
