Hi,

i have an problem, i pluged in today an remote door lock module, and i tested it befor i finished, and all worked fine, after i make all hard and finished with screw and other things, nothing worked...

I controlled all wires but its all ok, the passenger side dont work too, what is wrong?
Did i shoot someting?

Is the passanger side not working when the driver side is not working?

Thx for answer...

We will need the year here, please and you mean you installed a remote door opener. 2d 4d? Please get used to providing all the info for any comprehensive responses, forum rules and common sense.

Did it all work before, sounds like a bad module or door switch.

Befor this all it works perfectly, i pluged in the module but not i have tested it befor i finished, and all work fine, the switch the remote control, after this, i make it finished, an then nothing works...

No click by pressing the Switch and no reaction by using the remote control, and it comes no power to the switch in driver side, the module have no power too...

OK, did you check the fuse?

Unplug your new device and check the wiring.

The next step will be to remove the small cover on the driver's door
and check +12v on the wires that go to the switch - they should be always live.

Actually, this is exactly the place where I mounted my remote lock module - it's very convenient and all the wires are here.

Yes i have check my fuse, and change it, and nothing happened, and there is no 12V on the Orange Wire, there was +12V befor i did anything...

OK, I see, you already checked the driver's door switch. And what about the fuse?
If nothing is powered, it's a very likely reason.

since the orange wire doesn't have +12v now that means that another fuse should be checked and replaced. I guess, there's no protection against simultaneous pressing of the buttons in your two parallel systems and something has caused short-circuiting.
Check the fuses, restore the operability of the primary system and draw a diagram of current connections.

From where come the Orange cable? And what is the reason that the passenger side dont work?
Have the both doors not a own doorengine?

The other doors are dependent on power to the master switch, a wiring diagram will be required here. The LTZ comes from the factory with remote door lock features, still don't understand what you were putting in the car?

Of course, there's a diagram for the door locks and controller.
AFAIR, the switch in the door is not a power switch - it's a signal switch that sends the on/off command to the controller. And it is the the controller that really moves the locks.

If there's no voltage on the signal switch, the controller will never know about our efforts and _none_ of the locks will work.

If you wired your device to the signal wires of the controller, it's very likely that either
these wires or the outputs of your device (or both) are "normally-grounded" that makes no trouble when you use them as standalone units but needs a diode-protection in the case of parallel switching.

Hi,

the Lumi worked... It was a Fuse that nobody come to...

It was the general electrical fuse.
