Did you install the actuators? I only saw two wires on your photos. Can you get a photo of your relay compartment. I still can't see how they work without the relays on an OEM door lock unit.Originally Posted by FLYBOY

For all those following this thread. Yes the relays are installed for the actuators which is why they were working (almost).

Ok Got the lock unit back updated (thx Dave) and new wiper arm plus a new actuator from Toby installed on the driver door but even with the rods disconnected on the driver door lock doesn’t get thrown to the lock position (just half way)
There’s not much room to move the new solenoid. Either way.
Now By hand it’s ok but from opposite passenger door it doesn’t get thrown nor by remote.
Any suggestions obviously I’m not doing something right?
Appreciate it

Does it work any better with the engine running? Just a thought maybe your getting low voltage on the door locks.

+1 ...That was my first thought, but it bugs me that it was always able to move with all of the links connected (even if it did jamb up).
If you are up for a ~2 hour drive, I'll help you cuss it for free!

So Progress, I started it up and it was working with all rear rods disconnected. Put those back on one by one an it works, except the rear lock latch rod.
I’ve tried adjusting that one but nothing seems to work?
Once I install it, it just binds everything up and causes problems.
Ron I don’t mind the drive at all what’s your schedule like next week?
I’ve been messing with this for far too long...lol
