These door locks are controlled by an electrically activated vacuum pump. Some Mercedes and Audis use a Type

D system. Test by locking doors from the passenger key cylinder. If all the doors lock, the vehicle's door lock

system can be controlled with just two relays (optional). The control wire can be found in either kick panel and

will show (+)12V when doors are unlocked and (-) ground when doors are locked. 

To interface, see the diagram below. The system must be programmed for 3.5 second door lock pulses. (See 

Operation Settings Learn Routine

section of this guide.)

type E: mercedes-benz and audi (1985 and newer)
