Remote Central Locking Question

[heapy]

Hey All. Started fitting the remote central locking kit, which I think I've now figured out, however...

Wired up the unit as far as power, unlock, lock and common. Thought I'd try it out before I went any further, (alarm, light flashing, immobiliser etc included in kit) and there's definitely power, but when I hit the lock button, the doors lock and then unlock straight away. Can hear the relay working in the unit for both lock and unlock.

Anyone come up against a similar thing, or spot an obvious problem? Just scotch-locked the wiring in, so haven't cut anything yet.

Help much appreciated as always.

Cheers for the link mate. Looking at it, I think the wiring for the surf and 4-runner differ, in colour if nothing else. I've got red/white - lock, red/yellow - unlock, and red/white common so far. Seems like the unlock circuit is powered all the time, I just can't figure out why.

yeah just thought theres alot of us out there that can't afford £150-£200 notes so if it helps me with some beer tokens and helps the site with some extra funs what the hell

i use that site to help me fit my alarm/immbolizer some wires differ slightly but in genral it's good

Ahh, the never ending search for beer tokens! I feel your pain! It's a good plan. I object to paying £200 too, so my maps tend to come from work.

Reckon I've found the right wiring, I must just be missing something...!

Have you got all the necessary wires earthed? With my kit I had to earth the black, yellow and yellow/black wires.

A lot of alarms have six wires for the locking system in 2x3, each set of 3 have a common, N/O and N/C.
On the surf it needs negative trigger, so wire the N/O on each set of 3 to earth point on body of vehicle, and the 2 common wires of each set of 3 to the unlock/lock wires on the central locking relay in the car, the other 2 wires can be cut and taped up.

This prob occurred on my initial "I'll just bodge it quickly and check" check, so am kind of hoping its just that, that I've not earthed something because I haven't got that far, or something similar.

Do you remember which wires your black, yellow and yellow/black wires were?
Further play time after work today!!

Cheers mate.

Where did your get your remote kit from? Ebay?
Here's a copy of the wiring diagram that I got with mine.
White/red - lock
red/yellow - unlock
Thick white/red - Live
Yellow - earth
Yellow/black - earth
Black - earth
Orange and orange/something - leave disconnected and insulate
