Power locks

[stefan]

Hey,

I got a power lock kit, it came with a 5 wire actuator, a 2 wire actuator and a control module. The control module has a two wire input for unlock/ lock- close the circuit they unlock, close it again they lock. The thing is, i got a two position unlock/lock switch that i want to mount on the door. Is there any way i can wire this thing up so can use the unlock/lock switch? if thats not clear, i want it wired so there is separate buttons for lock/unlock (useing the two position switch i got)

never mind.. i just returned the kit and got 2 2-wire actuators and 2 5-pin relays. Im gonna do it the old fashioned way. ill report back when its installed.

I got all my power lock parts from a two door ford tempo.

just outta curiosity, why would you even need power locks on a festy? I can reach both locks with either hand even while driving because of the width of the car... just wondering... I'll probably put power locks in my silver one sometime anyway, even though they aren't necessary

i would put power locks on my car for an alarm that i intend on putting on it, it control the locks, remote start etc. all from the remote

I agree i already have the alarm installed, but still have to use the key to unlock doors
All of my cars have power locks but my Festivas

Plus do we really need all of the things we do to these cars
probably not but we have fun doing it.

lol yeah, I was just making a joke... power locks and a power hatch latch are on the list of mods for the silver car anyway, I was just noting that its really easy to reach the door locks ... unlike on my old taurus wagons... those NEEDED power windows and locks :!:
