Re: Keyless Entry

["Thomas M. Vagi" <tombert@together.net>]

Benjamin,
    I just installed keyless entry in my car and it was indeed easy.  My
installation is a bit different in that I installed an Alpine alarm system
which includes automatic locking (keyless entry) as a feature.  In your
case, you might want to take a look at HARADA.  They make the solenoid's I
used in my doors to actuate the lock mechanism.  They also make keyless
entry equipment.
    According to the manual, the central lock on your car operates by a
switch connected to the drivers side door lock.  When the lock is turned, it
actuates the central locking motor.  You will likely need to tap into the
red/white wire going to the switch and connect it to the keyless entry
control unit.  The wiring diagram that comes with the keyless entry kit will
explain how to do it, but basically you will just be actuating the central
locking motor from the keyless entry control unit.  It is ridiculously
simple, believe me.  If there is anything I can help with, holler.

Tom.
