both tracks sit at GND and when power is applied one switches 2 12v whilst the other stays at GND
Alternating between LOck and unlock
the only possibly reason i can think is that the connections from the alarm are wrong
if you reconnect the factory system back up so effectivly you have replaced the track with a wire that comes out of the box, this should allow the factory door lock via remote to work again
if it does what you need to check is the relay on the aftermarket alarm module
ahh no wait i think i may have made a mistake i edited the post where i put the wire details in from my original plan and i think i could have got it wrong it looks like i have put the common on the wrong side of the wiring
The common on the relay needs to be the bit that goes to the door locks the normally closed goes to factory wiring the normally open goes to the new 12v feed
ok lets try it this way round
Green/Black to lower side of lock track (common)
white/black to upper side of lock track (normally closed
violet/black constand 12v (normally open)
Unlock side of track
blue/Black to lower side of unlock (common)
brown/black to uper side of unlock track (normally closed)
violet constand 12v (normally Open)
if memory serves on the fcatory system

05-01-2018, 08:06 AM #77Alrite Rabs got the central locking working now mate! both of the fobs work aswell. all i got to do now is wire up the lil extras horn,indicators ect so all gd. thx for your help! if i use the key fob and start car then alarm goes off so i have to use the aftermarket fob so all gd. when i had the alarm installed on my pug i would unlock the car then when i would go to start id have to press the unlock button again on the fob but at the min if i unlock with aftermarket then i can start straight away this is still fine though aint it just thinking security?? still waiting for my start button kit to come **** it lol cant wait to have this all setup!!! ill have a crack at the windows on the weekend any advice much appreciated as u are defin the electrics man lol
YOu shouldn't be able to start the car if you unlock the doors with the OEM fob though as the viper has its own immobiliser....
i take it the second set of wiring details i put up were correct for wiring in the Central locking (in post #75)
with the windows have you purchased a unit to control them to make them role up or are you making your own relay system to do it ?
Indicators and horn can all be done in the steering cowl
i take it you are soldering all connections ?
the idea will eventually be mate that you can ditch the OEM fob

05-01-2018, 10:33 AM #79At the min im just crimping and getting all connected then ill solder them all so i know all in right place and can cable tidy all mate. When i unhooked the alarm there was a module in my pug in the door so gotta take it out and have a look see what it was and that?? not too clued up on all this as u can tell lol! Na i cant start car with the oem fob alarm just goes off like mad so all gd! Yeah the second set was spot on mate thx!
the other thing that may help other members is a walk through on fitting the alarm as you have crimped all the connections would be a great opportunity to take photos as you change them to solder and heatshrunk ones.
i can help you put the guide together if you want ?
Sounds good mate let us know what the module looks like and i can give some advice...
