Been trying to install my kit for hours, the power is good, the earth is good. The unit clicks & my indicators flash with the lock & unlock button. All ok there but ive tried every combo with the wires for locking & unlocking and nothing whatsoever. The guide i read on here said the white & yellow wires/black & yellow wires are the triggers. Is that correct? If so the problem is with the wires on my kit. The guide is very very basic and ive followed the wiring diagram as best as possible but with no luck. Heres the pictures from the guide

I believe the car is negative trigger and so have wired it that way... I think.

Bloody cheap kit

I can get the to lock now, with the unlock button on the fob but thats about all

Switch the wires around? See if it locks with the lock button then?

Sounds like the wire coloring is wrong

Sent from my Galaxy S2 not a Crapple!

If i swap the wires round it does nothing. I can live with the buttons working backwards but i cant find the unlock trigger wire on the car anywhere

If you are connecting to the wires at the CCU, then you need negative trigger (as in second pic).

Yellow and yellow/black wires to ground.

Lock: White wire goes to black/blue wire at pin 7 of CCU.

Unlock: White/black wire goes to white/blue wire at pin 13 of CCU.

This doesn't work with some early cars.

Do all the doors lock/unlock using the key in the boot lock?

What year is the car?

2 or 4 power windows?

Ok from your first post i can see no mention of a multi meter, how are you checking the wires??

Car is 2000, 4 electric windows and doors unlock from the boot but do not lock from the boot.

The wiring scheme in post #5 is correct.

Thanks im going to try that shortly will report back

I dont have a blue/black wire for lock. I have a grey & blue and grey & black

Are you attempting to connect to the CCU under the dash?

Or are you trying to connect to the wiring in the door?

Wiring in the door

Connecting to the wiring in the door can be problematic and may require the addition of resistors. It is much easier to connect to the CCU under the dash. It is screwed to a metal bracket.

See below

If connecting into ccu is the wiring you mentioned above the correct way?

Yes. If you check the pin numbers against the wire colours, they should match

Thanks. Ive pulled the whole thing out of the door now just need to get into the ccu. Thanks for your help, im sure i will need more yet lol

Just undo the two screws you can see at the top of the picture and you can take the CCU off the shelf.

Got to the ccu there was no black/blue wire in pin 7 but in pin 4 next to it. Still no joy. I connected to the white/blue wire next to pin four, still no activity on the locks. The unit is clicking so power & earth are fine

When you try to lock the car, are all the doors closed?

There are lots of variants. Does your car have white/blue at pin 2 and black/blue at pin 4?

Arn't the prefacelift and facelifted versions different CCUs?? and/or wiring??

A 2000 is a prefacelift isn't it?? Wasn't the facelift in 2001??

There are lots of versions. I suspect that OP's car is going to be the same as my 1999slx. White/blue at pin 2 and black/blue at pin 4 of the CCU. The wiring is even different for the hatchback vs Estate (the hatch needs a 180ohm resistor)

It has a black/blue at pin four but pin 7 was empty. Im not sure where pin two was couldnt see it but there was a blue/white just next to pin 4 so used that. With them connected if i pressed the lock button the locking jumped but never locked it just jumped. Nothing on the unlock button. Ive given up for the day now lol. Cant thank you enough for the help so far car is prefacelift its a GLXi spec

i bought a remote locking kit from ebay a while ago, the wiring diagram is poo. if you remove the door card from the drivers door, and follow the wires back from the door lock motor to roughly where the interior door handle would be, that is where i spliced mine in. i cant remember what colour the wires were, but i pinned various wires to earth, until the doors either locked or unlocked. it all works fine now, except the boot release, which i never wired up. it is a very basic kit, and i could not make it operate the windows whilst holding the buttons on the remote. persevere and you will get there. good luck. BTW mine is also a 2000 model

Hi i tried the wires in the door with no success i wired them with every combo available. The best i got was the car to lock using the unlock button. At present its wired into the ccu under the dash, if i press lock button theres some activity on the locking bug it doesnt actually lock

Very frustrating, theres plenty of threads about for these kits but with no conclusions as to whether they worked or not.

The kits do work, I've fitted quite a few but there many variants to the wiring.

If you lock the doors, can you use the remote to unlock them?
