#115636, "How Do The Power Locks Work In A 2G?"


          

Hey!

I swapped my door insides for power accessories. The windows worked great, and I just got the relay for the locks in today.

The way they work seems kinda weird to me.

If the door in open and you hit lock, they unlock immediately.

If all the doors are unlocked, and I lock it from the outside with a key, they both lock. When I unlock, only the drivers unlocks.

If im inside with the doors shut, they lock and unlock when I tell them to.

This sound right?

The only things I did not hook up are mirrors (useless accessory BANME! and the little pronged circular things that clip to the key cylinder on each side. One because the guy I bought the stuff from said I didnt need them, and two because one pronged piece had the clips busted off and I didnt realize it when I left his house, which isnt a biggy, I dont need them.

Thanks!

Sounds to me like they are working fine. The reason they unlock themselves when the doors are open is to prevent you from locking yourself out. If you want both the drivers side and passenger side to unlock when you unlock it from the outside with a key, just unlock the drivers door twice, turn it to unlock it like normal then unlock it again if that makes sense, it will open the passenger side the second time.

*Edit*
You need those pronged circular sensors on the lock cylinders to open both doors from the outside like I said above.

Thanks!

They started working alot better once I had everything moving for a while. I think they had been sitting for a while.

But if I put keyless entry on the car (aftermarket) then it should work fine without the circular things?

Thanks!

I was wondering if anyone knew if the circular things would cause keyless entry to not work right?

I was about to order a keyless system emoji

Thanks!

Sounds like they're working just fine without them now, why would adding keyless entry change that?

Oh, I did not know if the circular things would allow both doors to be unlocked from the key fob emoji

Thanks!
