Remote Closing Of Windows

[dave030445]

hi all

bit of a tricky one.

Just fitted aftermarket remote locking kit, and it can close the windows when locked. Does any one know the colour of the wire, that you have to use to close the windows.

cheers dave

seem to remember its not a singke wire on them unless you have global closing unit, check by locking door and keep it in lock position should put window up also puts on double locking, if it has global ill get you the wire code what year petrol diesel etc needed

[dave030445]

yes it has got global closing

its a 2.8v6 ghia x p reg 1997 petrol manual

ill check circuit diagrams for u itll be the wire coming off the switch that you need which will end up at comfort control under passenger seat, thats best place to mount unit as everything you want is there but make sure that its mounted high up or on top of unit incase it gets wet

[dave030445]

hi thanks the wire that comes out of the unit for the closeing of the windows, is a negitive swiched on for about 20 secs on locking, hope this is ok to use.

A quick look would suggest its positive switched on the earlier cars, so you'll need to use your negative switched output to drive a relay.

 

Route your supply through a 10amp fuse and put it onto either pin 8 or 9 of C230 (Central Locking / Theft Module - Below passenger seat RHD) - both are .5 (ie small) cables.

 

Pin 8 is Grey from the passenger door lock and tailgate switch.

Pin 9 is Green from the drivers lock.

 

Holding either of these high (ie 12v) should trigger global closing but it'll be easy to test that with a volt meter first :25:

Oh god thats sounds tricky, can you tell me how to connect it up the relay, i mean a idiots guide would be good.

hi thanks for that worked great, just one thing the unlocking signal is on for to long 4secs. Which is enoth to open the window about half way, any thing i can use to cut this down to about 1 to 2 seconds as its not good, having all 4 windows open when its pouring with rain.

I'm assuming you had that fault before you added the relay as you shouldn't have touched the unlocking wiring :)

 

95% of alarms have the option to change the locking between .5 and 3.5 seconds, look in the installers guide and it should say how to change it. What alarm is it?

NO that fault was not there before i disconted the realy and its still on for about 4 secs and so is the locking but again only 4 sec its not an alarm it just the remote locking unit there is nothing in the insructions about it and the bloke i bought it from doesnt care

cheers dave

hi does any one have any ideas. Im thinking of just ripping it out and throw it in the bin. And go back to using the key.

[dave030445]

Just had a thought is there a way of disconnecting the global opening, ie so windows don't open when unlocked.
