|
|
ok guys my pajero unlocks and locks on the key via the drivers door. am wanting to fit a basic remote door locking so i can just open and lock the doors via a remote fob.
ive bought a kit which includes the solonoid switches but just wondering if this can be attached to the original solonid to move the metal bar up and down or do i have to replace my solonoid with the new remote. has anyone done this before and can you give me a heads up on what wires i need to cut or join. was hoping this could be a simple job but these things never are. it does look like i have room at the bottom of the door to lay my original door solonoid down and somehow attach the new one too it almost like piggy backing onto it but was hoping for a little guidence.. cheers

ah its an M reg 2.8, looks like i might have worked it out now, just need to piggy back the actuator rod onto the original one then take the wires to the main control box that came with the kit and then put a 12v source to it, well thats what im hoping anyways.. lol |

It's much easier than that.
You don't need to fit the new actuators.
There is a control box behind the speaker in the driver's side dash - there are two wires
One is Black/Red - connecting that momentarily to earth locks the doors
the other is Black/Blue - earthing this wire momentarily unlocks the doors.
This is known as a negative trigger.
Most central locking modules allow you to choose either a positive or negative trigger and have two wires coming out of them. One is a "lock" wire and the other is an "unlock wire". There should be instructions in the manual for the central locking unit should say how to choose a negative trigger. |

All the doors have an actuator in them so you only need to connect your remote locking box - it has to provide a negative trigger, which most do.
I fitted one of THESE five years ago and just had to replace it because it stopped flashing the rear indicators (everything else worked though.
Can't complain for the price though - and the replacement one just plugged in to the existing wiring I did when I first fitted it.
The fitting instructions are HERE if you want to look at them. |

There's quite a few wires but not too difficult to fit.
There is a wiring diagram in the fitting instructions in the link above. |

Hi,
Will the same work for 2006 3.2 DiD Automatic Shogun?
Edit: I can now confirm that the £10 system from ebay works with my car. I connected the locking wire to bright green/red wire and unlocking to the brown/white wire where the original cobra system was soldered and the yellow cables to the ground. Hopefully it helps someone.
