      @@mr.spittle136 my 2001 4.3 didnt come with a key fob, I used the hard to find base model optional elec door locks (not the style that have the elec windows, my windows are still crank) I used the OEM wires (its all plug and play) and just wired them up to 2 relays like in this video. I had to make my own end plugs for the relays of course - but used the OEM wires. As an option I decided to add in a remote fob but its not required (I just didn't like reaching over to unlock the door) the aftermarket remote fob came with its own wiring info and I combined them and it worked out well

    I'm glad I found this video. I'm pretty sure I'm gonna need this information. I'm about to install an aftermarket alarm system in my '96 Ford Ranger. I'm also going to be installing aftermarket door lock actuators that will be controlled by my alarm system. I haven't decided between two alarm systems on Amazon which both seem pretty good. The two alarm systems are the Avital 3100LX and the Viper 350 Plus 3105V.

    • @stereoking7778
      @stereoking7778  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Jeremy, thanks checking out our video. Both the alarms you are looking at are good alarms. The biggest difference between the two are the remote look and the led on the Viper 3105v is built into the antenna and is blue instead of red. You might want to pickup a DEI 451m door lock relay harness as well. It will make the installation a little easier.

    This is also helpful for replacing the slide controller on an RV. Lippert (formerly Power Gear) controller boards use a pathetic little DPDT relay that burns out easily when the slide gets old and the load gets bigger from the worn motor and dried grease on the gears. Instead of buying a $140 replacement from Lippert, this works fine, but you may have to change the 12V connection at 85/86 to a ground, as many older RV's used a positive trigger. Also, Lippert's replacement boards are ONLY negative trigger, and this method saves you the trouble of changing your slide switch from positive trigger to negative trigger. Be looking for a video about this on my channel in the coming weeks. I will also be using a similar method to manually open/close the choke on my generator from inside the camper.

It appears that maybe someone removed the radio triggered portion of the system. What should I buy to put in its place to restore the keyless entry? Is there a wireless reversing relay out there?

    2. I did this only for the passenger side but i noticed all the other 3 door locks are working with much greater force now. Is it possible that a stronger current is flowing in the door locks circuit?! (as they are connected in series)

    Good video. I am using the setup you show here with the relays. In the video you don't show any door switches. I am using a remote lock unlock and also want to use left and right door switches to control the locks. I have set this up and I can lock or unlock using each switch separately. Problem I am having is if I hook up both switches at the same time neither one work. Do you have a diagram to show me how to hook this up so both switches and remote will switch the lock unlock. I am currently using two 2 wire actuators but I do have 5 wire actuators if needed to make this work.

Remote will trigger lock unlock with white and white/black wire when I hook that up. But my problem is not the remote function but the switches both working properly. I have worked on this for hours and can't get it to work with both switches. Even duplicated a whole system outside the car on the bench with same results. Something is not wired right to use both switches at once but I can't figure out what to do to fix it.

      Neither is accessory. All are constant.
