ScoobyDoo82 Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 Are those wires accessable through the C200 connector (on the firewall by the right side A-pillar) by any chance, or am I going to have to fish wires through the dash?

ManicMechanic Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 I think the only one at the C200 is the VSS wire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starflare5 Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 I think the only one at the C200 is the VSS wire. Um, the dark green VSS wire is going to be attached to your dash cluster harness. You can jumper a wire to the unit from that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManicMechanic Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 Um, it's coming from the ECM and goes through the C200 as I recall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mchill07 Posted March 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 Got the newer chime module this morning. It has the extra black,white wire for the PD Unlock Relay. Now just need to find the PD lock relay and tap into in. Any ideas where this is located in the 93? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mchill07 Posted March 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 Well, installed the newer chime spliced the blk/wht wire to the unlock relay and VOILA! The doors now automatically unlock when the ignition is turned off! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_mezz Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 Ok, does the logic work the other way? my 94 does the auto lock but doesn't do the auto unlock, so I'd be happy to be rid of it completely. Just get a chime module from a 93 or older and slap it in there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mchill07 Posted April 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 (edited) I'm not sure when the auto lock feature was introduced? but yes, get a compatible chime module that doesn't control the locks. I don't remember my 89' Intl CS having that feature. Edited April 3, 2012 by mchill07 typo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManicMechanic Posted April 3, 2012 Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 Yeah J, 1992 and older will be plug and play or you can just unplug the connector. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starflare5 Posted June 8, 2012 Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 Hey guys, I appear to be having an issue with this. I got ahold of one of these chime modules that was made in 1991 from a 1992 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme. Now, the auto-unlock when you turn off the ignition works fine, however, the auto-lock when you shift from park (attached to the neutral/park start switch wire), or when you speed up to 9mph does not seem to be working at all however, is getting a signal that I tested by making sure the turn signal left on alarm went off only while car was moving. Is this module too old? Is it faulty? Can someone please help? Thank you, Starflare5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1988PhantomFE3 Posted June 8, 2012 Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 Our '94 CS Vert locks when taken out of Park, and unlocks when the key is completely shut off. I did buy a Ford Taurus wagon once, took it accross the street from the dealership to get gas, left it running to warm up and got locked out! Advised the gas station attendent, then ran accross the street to the dealership to get another key to get back into it. Put a HIDE-A-KEY underneath the bumper as soon as we got home!

White92Cutlass Posted June 8, 2012 Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 I've got a chime module out of a '91 Cutlass Supreme Convertible-$8.00 plus shipping if anybody wants it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dummkompf Posted February 10, 2013 Report Share Posted February 10, 2013 so i've read this thread and seen several posts that say a 97 should have the auto lock AND the auto unlock, I'm not sure what models they were referring to but my 97 lumina definitely does NOT the auto-unlock, just the auto-lock. most annoying damn "feature" ever thought of.... had to be just some saddistic way of torturing gm drivers and forcing them to lock themselves out.... ANYWAYS, I'm a little confused now... is my 97 lumina supposed to do the unlock also? or did luminas get that feature in a later year? what year lumina would i need to pull a chime module from to make that work? and can anyone tell me if the luminas auto locks can be disabled by removing fuse #7 instead of disconnecting the chime module, which is what 1 person said in regards to a different model 97?

AL Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 Check your owners manual, things like that can be reprogrammed most of the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dummkompf Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 I checked, it doesn't mention anything about programming or disabling them. To correct myself, it DOES unlock automatically, but not until I turn off the car. which is incredibly stupid and pointless. Which years/models automatically unlock when you put it in park? that's what I need the chime from. Unless mins is, in fact, programmable. if so it's not in the owners manual. maybe the factory service manual? anyone have one of those they can check?

Crazy K Posted February 11, 2013 Report Share Posted February 11, 2013 the 94+ module, which i assume a 97 lumina should have should lock and unlock. could be you need to try a j/y module. facts: autolock engages with vehicle placed in drive autolock engages with vehicle reaches 9 mph autolock disengages with vehicle is turned off each of these signals comes though a separate wire, and any one of them could be disabled/faulty. I like the 94+ module and intend on getting it installed on all my cars. Every car that I have touched otherwise I do a "mild reprogram" on the module, which is I snip the wire for autolock when car placed in drive. Therefore, my doors lock when I hit 10 mph, and unlock when the key is turned off. The autolock has locked me out of my car once, which was once enough, when the vehicle was being rolled in gear to be jump started... Another glitch with the autolock feature, it's annoying to move your car so passengers can get in and you have to unlock the doors, which the car can and will fight if you are in drive.........

GnatGoSplat Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 He said it does unlock when he turns off the ignition, so his 97 module is working as designed. None of these unlock when the vehicle is shifted into Park, and as far as I know, there is no way to configure it to do so. Best thing to do if it bothers you is just to try unplugging that previously mentioned fuse or unplug the wire harness coming out of the end if that doesn't work. It'll disable autolocks altogether.

dummkompf Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 ok thanks gnat... i thought i read a post from someone saying their car does unlock in park, maybe im mistaken... or maybe im right but that poster was mistaken... oh well either way i'll just disable it completely. SOOO freakin dumb the way it works Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhatTheFehl Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 The second gens can be set to unlock when placed in park (97-2003 give-or-take) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psych0matt Posted February 14, 2013 Report Share Posted February 14, 2013 I would like to have lock at 10mph in the GTP. I don't as much mind the off on shutoff, but it would be nicer to have unlock on park. I need to clean/lube my locks first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VegasDude Posted July 9, 2021 Report Share Posted July 9, 2021 (edited) My '96 Regal autolocks when the car starts moving, and auto unlocks ALL DOORS when put in park.. Unlocking All the doors could be potentially dangerous, especially if parking in a bad part of town.. There is a fuse in the passenger side fuse box for the auto unlocking, so I pulled it.. So now the doors still autolock, but not unlock. The auto unlock freaked me out when I got the car, and I disabled that feature immediately that day..

Jim_rockford_007 Posted July 11, 2021 Report Share Posted July 11, 2021 that shit does nothing but wear out your lock solenoids. disable it and lock it yourself if you are scared of falling out of the vehicle or cruising through the hood.
