Wiring Instructions:
Refer to the provided wiring diagram and your vehicle's specific wiring schematic for accurate connections. The general connections are as follows:
- Red Wire: Connect to a constant 12V positive power source (e.g., ignition 12V constant positive).
- Black Wire: Connect to a reliable vehicle ground point.
- White Wire: Connect to the vehicle's door unlock signal wire.
- White/Black Wire: Connect to the vehicle's door lock signal wire.
- Brown Wires (2): Connect to the vehicle's parking light signal wire. These wires provide the flashing alert function.
- Yellow and Yellow/Black Wires: These wires typically need to be grounded for negative trigger systems. Use appropriate splicers for connection.
- Green Wire: This wire is for trunk release. If your vehicle does not have a trunk release function or you do not wish to use it, this wire can be cut off.
- Orange and Orange/Black Wires: These wires are typically for pneumatic lock systems. If your vehicle uses a standard electric lock system, these wires should be cut off.
Important Note: Some vehicles may require interchanging the lock and unlock wires (White and White/Black) depending on the vehicle's specific wiring configuration. Always test functionality before finalizing connections.
