Hi guys,
A while back I purchased the following aftermarket RCL kit for my 97 Punto.
http://www.in-car-stuff.com/shop/falcon-phaser-remote-central-locking-upgrade-p-32.html
It took me a while to find the central locking wires in my Punto but I eventually found them down by the driver's kick panel. I know I have the right wires because when I put them to ground, it locks and unlocks accordingly.
Now for the confusing bit...
I followed the "instructions" as best I could as per:
http://support.in-car-stuff.com/files/VMOD55 - Falcon Phaser Instruction Manual.pdf
But I cannot get the system to work, no matter the configuration I try.
Sometimes the unit doesn't respond at all, sometimes it "pulses" for 30 seconds locking and unlocking my car continously, or sometimes it'll keep my car locked, even when I unlock it by hand!
So... 2 things fellas.
Firstly, does anyone know how to get this to work? Or suggestions how to get it to work? Your help is very appreciated.
Secondly, failing the above, can anyone recommend a better kit, preferably about the same price or a bit more if it includes an alarm too?
This forum is a haven of knowledge and ideas and I look forward to hearing what you have to say!
P.S. Can somebody also help me locate my indicator wires in a better position than buried inside my steering column where I can just about see them now...?
