terryk2003 Posted June 4, 2005 Author Report Posted June 4, 2005 ok...well, i decided to use the SEARCH function and from what i understood its supposed to be located in the rear deck!?...well, i tore my back seat out and the carpet off the rear deck and i don't even see where its supposed to mount...let alone any wires...i mean, i was hoping it'd have some wires for it, but it might not...but, i would @ least like to know where the reciever goes so i can mount mine in the factory location...i'm uploading some pics now...if someone could point me in the right direction that'd be great...

herb427sc Posted June 4, 2005 Report Posted June 4, 2005 It is in the trunk, on the right side. Quote
terryk2003 Posted June 4, 2005 Author Report Posted June 4, 2005 what?...i'm not looking for the programming wire...i wanna know where the reciever itself is... Quote
Guest TurboSedan Posted June 4, 2005 Report Posted June 4, 2005 yup....that's where it is in my Cutlass. right on the passenger side rear deck next to the 6x9 speaker. looks like you car probably isn't prewired for it Quote
terryk2003 Posted June 4, 2005 Author Report Posted June 4, 2005 no...i see no wires for it...but, i don't even see two holes where its supposed to be mounted...but, anywayz, i guess i'll mess with it some more tomarrow...and i got some SERIOUS wiring to do too... Quote
terryk2003 Posted June 5, 2005 Author Report Posted June 5, 2005 on 2nd thought...now that i look @ that pic again...i think i might see where it goes... Quote
terryk2003 Posted June 5, 2005 Author Report Posted June 5, 2005 well, i went outside and looked...sure enough there are 2 holes right next to the speaker that my reciever lines right up too!!! soooo...tomarrow i get to go buy some wire and have funn...hopefully i'll have her finished up by the end of the day... thanx for your help josh ...

5speedz34 Posted June 5, 2005 Report Posted June 5, 2005 Are you adding a stock RKE to you're car? Quote

terryk2003 Posted June 5, 2005 Author Report Posted June 5, 2005 ok...well, i got the box installed today and i have it where the doors will unlock and lock...but thats about it...i had the uluminated entry wire hooked up to the door jamb switch, but i guess it wasnt right cause that didnt work...and i can't figure out which wires i need to hook into for the trunk release to work...so if someone can tell me where these wires go, that'd be appriciated: *CONNECTOR C2 - Grey wire!? * C2 - TAN!? *C2 - Dark Blue? *C2 - Black (white tracer)? *C2 - Light Green? also, are both doors supposed to unlock with one push of the unlock button!?...cause the back of the fob says just the drivers door will unlock with one push, and all will unlock if you push it twice...well, mine all unlock with one push!?...

GP1138 Posted June 6, 2005 Report Posted June 6, 2005 also, are both doors supposed to unlock with one push of the unlock button!?...cause the back of the fob says just the drivers door will unlock with one push, and all will unlock if you push it twice...well, mine all unlock with one push!?... IIRC, that's a feature that, if your car didn't come with it, is fairly hard to wire in. It requires some extra wiring or something. Quote
terryk2003 Posted June 6, 2005 Author Report Posted June 6, 2005 ok...well, i don't need it to do that...i was just not sure if thats what it was supposed to do.... so, does anyone have the info for those wires!?... :? Quote
GnatGoSplat Posted June 7, 2005 Report Posted June 7, 2005 BLK/WHT and LT-GRN are for the trunk release. TAN is for the driver side unlocking I think. Progressive unlocking requires you to cut the larger gauge TAN-WHT wire from your driver side lock and run it to the RKE module. DK-BLU I think is for the door jamb switches. Not sure on the GRY wire. I had sent IntlCutlass the pinouts awhile back. I have them at home, but not here at work. Maybe he can shed some light on it. Quote
terryk2003 Posted June 7, 2005 Author Report Posted June 7, 2005 i hooked the dark blue to the door jamb switch on the drivers side...and it didnt do anything...i thought that was for the illuminated entry!?...do i have to hook it to BOTH door jambs!?... Quote
GnatGoSplat Posted June 7, 2005 Report Posted June 7, 2005 No, I don't think you need to hook it to both jambs. What color was the wire that originally went to your jamb switches? Quote
terryk2003 Posted June 7, 2005 Author Report Posted June 7, 2005 No, I don't think you need to hook it to both jambs. What color was the wire that originally went to your jamb switches? i hooked it up to a blue wire on the drivers door jamb switch... Quote
