I've read on this before and when I search I get 0 results, I don't know if it is because I am at work and things are restricted or not but anyway I want to hook up powerlocks in my 00 LS so I can use keyless entry, Could someone point me to a link where there is more info or let me know what I need besides the actuators themselves and the best spot to get a set. Any tips on the mounting of the actuators too
any help appreciated
thanx

Do you have an alarm now, if so, make and model?
If you do not have an aftermarket alarm you will need one or at least a key-less entry module.
Door lock actuators and SPDT relays, [that you will need if they are not built in to an alarm] can be found at any car audio shop or here... http://www.installer.com/cars/honda.html

As for mounting the actuators, it's not that hard if you keep a few things in mind.

1- Mount them solidly, and make sure you don't twist/bend the housing.

2- Obviously mount in location so nothing will interfere with the actuator or it's linkage rod or rod clamp.

3. Make sure actuator is as parallel to the lock linkage you are connecting to.

4- Keep connecting rod as short and straight as possible, however if you need the whole connecting rod use it.

5- Once actuator and linkage is connected test the manual door lock switch, it should not feel a lot diff., if it is hard to use, [binding, stiff or will not go all the way in one direction or the other] the actuator/linkage is misaligned or maladjusted. 94

Thanks for the help
I believe the model of alarm given to me was the hornet 564t. I don't know how good of an alarm it is but its brand new in box and it was free so im not complaining lol. i believe it has built in relays

fcm

The alarm is OK, it is a DEI alarm/remote start combo unit, but the door lock relays are not built in, the unit has 200mA pos./neg. door lock outputs, you will need a pr. of relays, wire like this...

Is your teg a 5 speed or an auto? 94

Hopefully this pic gives you a good idea, sorry but it's the best one I have

MeekalLS

Teg is a 5 speed and I dont even want the remote start anyway. Its not winter driven and I couldnt care less to have it in the summer lol

MeekalLS

Crap I thought the relays were in that until I read the box booourns! So whta kind of relay should I get and where from? I have absolutely no idea about this whole relay deal. And what about the actuators anyone know of a good spot to get these fairly quickly. I dont really have any stores in my area that sell these sort of things

8520

No best buys? The dei part number for the actuators are 524T. Should run you between $15-$25 for a set

MeekalLS

Nope no best buys around. Can I get the actuators from a website cheaper than the directed.com ones Im assuming this would be a proper actuator http://www.directedstore.com/c...DA_SE or would this be the one im looking for http://www.directedstore.com/c...DA_SEand would this be something like the relay im looking for http://www.directedstore.com/c...DA_SEand anyone know about the relays I have no idea how to wire those in or what type/size I would need or where I could buy them say a bit cheaper if possible because Id still need to get all that shipped to canada, im a dummy haha


ok So I think I've found a door lock motor/actuator thingy

And yes the DEI door lock relay pack will work, [there are 2 relays in the pack].

You can get SPDT automotive relays at any car audio shop or car parts store.

In Canada you say! Where in Canada? 94

MeekalLS

Over in the corner haha in Newfoundland

fcm

OK, I found it, even got a look west from Pynn's Brook from a highway cam.
Yea you are a ways from anyplace, St.John's being on the other side of the island.
Do you have a Princess Auto. Canadian Tire, Lordco or UAP/Napa in town or close? 94

MeekalLS

bwahaha this place is about this big |---| haha We've got a Canadian Tire and a Napa yep, What should I ask for seeing how the staff at Canadian Tire have a hard time telling rims from tires and rotors from blank cds

AUIDOVOX makes a pretty good one, relatively cheap, contact AUDIOVOX ... http://www.audiovox.com/webapp...x.jsp
to find a dealer closest to you, [may even be Can. Tire or Napa]. 94
