ok so i have had a 3002 viper alarm system installed on my car for sometime now and i just purchased power lock actuators for my crx, mounted them both today and now the question becuase i suck at wiring lol.

which actuator wires go to which viper wires?

this is what i have in my hand, three things that need to be hooked up.

1: Door Lock Harness (7 wires)
2: Passenger Actuator (Already Mounted)
3: Driver Actuator (Already Mounted)

The Door Lock Harness has an install Manual but i dont understand what these things mean.
Wire 1: Black/White (Dome Light Supervision Relay Input #87)
Wire 2: White/Black (Lock #87a Normally Closed)
Wire 3: Green/Black (Lock #30 Common {Output})
Wire 4: Violet/Black (Lock #87 Normally Open {Input})
Wire 5: Brown/Black (Unlock #87a Normally Closed)
Wire 6: Blue/Black (Unlock #30 Common {Output})
Wire 7: Violet (Unlock #87 Normally Open {Input})
**What do each of these wires mean? In idiot english?**

Each Actuator has two wires coming from it (Im guessing a positive and a negative)
Wire 1: Blue
Wire 2: Green

Sorry for being such and idiot, I would just really love to learn how to do this on my own.

My main question is, "Where do these 7 wires go?"

I have only 2 from each actuator giving me a total of 4 wires.

So this is my reasoning and thought:
4 go two the actuators
2 are used as grounds
1 is that ((Wire 1: Black/White (Dome Light Supervision Relay Input #87))) **which is just a interior light?**

Your alarm, [Viper 3002] has the door lock relays built in, so you can wire the actuators without off board relays.

You will need to wire them as polarity reversing ground at rest, this may help...

So you will ground the brown/black, [87a] and white/black, [87a] leads to a good chassis ground point.

You will connect the violet/black, [probably two leads connected together and fused] to a good 12V+ constant power, constant power "free pin" on under dash fuse box will work.

That will leave you with two leads, the blue/black, [#30] and green/black, [#30], take the two sets of actuator leads and connect them together, two blues and two greens, temporarily connect the two blue leads to the blue/black and the two green leads to the green/black, arm the alarm, if the doors lock make the connections permanent, if the doors do not lock and they lock when you disarm the alarm, reverse the green and blue leads, connect the blue leads to the green/black and the green leads to the blue/black.

BTW, the green and blue leads comming off the actuators are both pos.(+) and neg.(-), reversing polarity means that when one of the leads has power and the other has a ground the motor runs in one direction, [EG; unlock] when you reverse the polarity, [switch the power and ground to the two leads the motor runs in the other direction, [EG; lock], neither the green or blue lead is the lock or unlock wire, [that depends on how the actuator is connected to the door lock linkage, it can work in either direction for lock and unlock.

"Polarity reversing ground at rest" means that when connected to the relays both the green and blue leads going to the actuators are grounds, when you arm the alarm it will energize, [turn on] one of the relays, that relay will "lift", [disconnect] the ground on the lead to the actuator that is connected to it and supply it with 12V+, and as the other relay, [not energized] is still supplying the other lead with a ground the actuators motor runs in one direction, in turn when you disarm the alarm the other relay is energized supplying the other lead to the actuator with 12V+ and driving the motor in the other direction.

This can just as easily be done as a "polarity reversing 12V+ at rest" by switching #87 and #87a on the relays although a ground at rest system is by far the most commonly used one. 94

You are a sexy amazing man! Haha thank you for answering everything. Ill try to wire up everything tonight if I get some time, thank you again!

what does this mean? sorry im such an idiot. motor is my strength not electrical &gt;&lt;

*NOTE: VIOLET and VIOLET/BLACK are common at fuse holder.

Both the violet, [H3/G] and the violet/black, [H3/D] #30 on the relays, share a common fuse and just the one lead, violet/black to connect to 12V+. 94

scottmog

oh so the violet duo need to connect to the battery?

what i meant with my last question is what is a free pin? is it a space on my main board under that dash? and what do they look like?

You have an IM 94
