locking switch is found, the installation may require a door lock actuator.
N
NO
OTTEE:: Always retest the wires in the kick panel to be sure they function the same way as the
wires on the switch.
There are eight common types of door lock circuits (some vehicles use more unusual systems):
■
TTyyp
pee A
A:: Three-wire (+) pulse controlling factory lock relays. Most GM, some Ford and Chrysler, 1995 Saturn,
some new VW, newer BMW.
■
TTyyp
pee B
B:: Three-wire (-) pulse controlling factory lock relays. Most Asian vehicles, early Saturn, some BMW and
Porsche.
■
TTyyp
pee CC:: Direct-wired reversing-polarity switches. The switches are wired directly to the motors. This type of
system has no factory relays. Most Fords, many GM two-doors cars and trucks, many Chryslers.
■
TTyyp
pee D
D:: Adding one or more aftermarket actuators. These include slave systems without an actuator in the
driver’s door, but with factory actuators in all the other doors. Type D also includes cars without power locks,
which will have actuators added. All Saabs before 1994, all Volvo except 850i, all Subaru, most Isuzu, and
many Mazdas. Some mid-eighties Nissans, pre-1985 Mercedes-Benz and Audi.
■
TTyyp
pee EE:: Electrically-activated vacuum systems. The vehicle must have a vacuum actuator in each door. Make
sure that locking the doors from the driver's or passenger side using the key activates all the actuators in
the vehicle. This requires a slight modification to the door lock harness. Mercedes-Benz and Audi 1985 and
newer.
■
TTyyp
pee FF:: One-wire system - cut to lock, ground to unlock. This system is found in late-model Nissan Sentras,
some Nissan 240SX, and Nissan 300ZX 1992 and later. It is also found in older Mitsubishis, and some early
Mazda MPV’s.
■
TTyyp
pee G
G:: Positive (+) multiplex. This system is most commonly found in Ford, Mazda, Chrysler and GM vehi-
cles. The door lock switch or door key cylinder may contain either one or two resistors.
■
TTyyp
pee H
H:: Negative (-) multiplex. The system is most commonly found in Ford, Mazda, Chrysler and GM vehi-
cles. The door lock switch or door key cylinder may contain either one or two resistors.
■
Three-wire switches will have either a constant ground input or a constant (+)12V input, along with the
pulsed lock and unlock outputs to the factory relays.
■
Many BMW’s and VW’s have no external switch. The switches are inside the actuator, and instead of pulsing,
the proper wires will flip-flop from (+)12V to (-) ground as the door locks are operated.
■
Direct-wired switches will have a (+)12V constant input and one or two (-) ground inputs, along with two
output leads going directly to the lock motors.
