Doors not unlocking?

[Josho]

Our central locking takes a while to unlock.

Think you should take it back to where you got the new alarm system fitted and make them sort it!

He aint stupid. lol

Who? Me or Ken?

Ken said its something to do with the car

[Len]

But surely if it was working before new instal and now you have problems then, simple logic says take it back! Maybe they f*cked something during instal?

[Dec]

Yer suppose so, it did have a few dodgy moments before though.

Nothing was touched during the install really, just plugged into existing wires and I watched him wire it all in

Think he's gonna have a look at it for me tomorrow

[VR6-Joe]

Ken is a decent chap and I'm sure he'll sort it for you..

I honestly can't see it being something he's done cus he's good at his job, or so I've heard.


I need to speak to you on msn later btw.

[Dec]

Oh do ya ill be on there from about 5 till 11 tonight, not going out so will just be a case of whenever I check my comp

dec run it round to me tomorrow at around 4pm and i will plug it into my cliffnet
as explained by dec the alarm gives out a long enough pulse first time but the pump does not always activate first time even when pulsing the unlock wire directly at the pump it with a 12v positive supply it still does not work first time so it is NOT the alarm output causing the problem
we also swapped the lock and unlock wires round and it gave out the correct double unlock pulse from the alarm and the doors unlocked first time everytime so definitely not the alarm
and dec saw this me do this and proved beyond all possible doubt that it is the alarm causing the issue
but as i said i will have another look tomorrow for him

cheers

ken

[Dec]

Yer sorry man I wasnt blaming you but bryn said about something to do with the central locking in the drivers door so wondered if anyone knew anything about that

Will be back from work about half 4 tomorrow mate

Cheers!

i know you were not blaming me but as i said remember when i swapped the lock and unlock wires round the unlock side of the alarm worked perfectly remember when disarming it it locked and arming unlocked
as this proved the alarm was working correctly
as for the drivers door yes if it was a mk2 then i could understand but mk3's have multipoint central locking meaning the lock and unlock wires can be found in more than one place without having to go directly to the drivers door
