[allbluedave]

very simply to fit. took forty minutes to do including putting the dash back together.works brilliantly and easy to wire in due to not having to add relays to lock/unlock wires. well worth considering if your central locking was knackard like mine was lol ;)

Thanks

hiya. i used this link on here to install mine :) .the wiring you need to tap into on the car is grey {lock} and green & red {unlock}

 

the ford galaxy has a positive triggered system so the wiring for the above locking kit is as follows. orange {dont connect} i cut the wire short and taped it up.white is the lock wire which is connected the the grey wire in the cars fuse box loom.yellow is 12v permo live. orange and black{don't connect}again cut short and taped up.white and black is the unlock wire which is connected to the green and red unlock wire in the fuse box.see piccys in link for location :)yellow and black is 12v permo live.the yellow wire and yellow/blackwire and the 12v live to the locking unit was spliced together. soldered and taped up and connected to the thick red wire in the fuse box.{ see pictures in link for wire location.the earth wire was connected to the earthing point as shown in the piccys.the good thing about this kit is that the control box is so small it fits in the plastic frame  the fuse box is made of and held in place by a sticky pad that comes with the kit. gud luck with the install and let us now how you get on

any problems and I will try and help in any way I can I posted the original central locking link

[andyn666]

well it turned up today so if i have time I will have a go at fitting it tomorrow, The kit i bought is like the VW remotes with the flick out key attached, I have already fitted the transponder from my spare key and i'm going to get the blank cut. The remote control system is the same as in your instructions so hopefully it should go without a hitch.

Fitted it using the instructions mentioned and it only took 40 mins tops, all working nicely with no problems fitting. Went and had the key on the remote cut for £12.50 and all work beautifully :)

Hi there. Very interested in finally sorting out the central locking issue. Can't seem to get the link to the instructions to work. It just keeps bringing me back to the forum index.  Maybe I'm having a brain fart... :) little help please. 

[sparky Paul]

Yes, the link appears to be broken.

 

Try this one...
