I can't find any info anywhere on this and there has to be something small that I am missing here, but this is not working at all. Okay, here is the deal:

I have a blue and green wire which the Alarm states is for unlocking (blue -) and locking (green -) and I have a negative door locking system (as do most honda's I beleive). Right now, the stock deck that was used for keyless entry has been removed and from what I understand it is not needed as I am putting in an aftermarket alarm which will take over these roles.

When I connect the blue wire to the unlock wire it unlocks and holds it locked as if I grounded the alarm wire. When I connect the green wire then nothing happens at all. When I press my Arm and Disarm button on the remote it does not do anything to the door locks (very frustrating). I have the correct unlock and lock wires because I have tested them grounding them both to ground and they lock the doors so I am lost and confused (the green/orange is unlock and the green/white is lock). Please, any ideas? I am going to try connecting the stock radio tommorow and tapping into those wires to see if the deck is actually needed for some reason. If this does not work, then I will be out of ideas.

My alarm install is 50% complete so it could be two things:

1) Something the way the Honda uses the stock deck that I don't know about

2) My alarm isn't getting power for this function and needs another of the 20 or so wires grounded or powered some how.



Thanks for looking

Nevermind,

I'm a retard : D

I re-read the manual and I was putting the Door Lock harness in the BitWriter port (ha, ha, but let's just hope I didn't fry the brain)

Thank you guys anyway, I'm sure we would have gotten it.

Thanks
