Need To Route 2 Additional Wires From Door Into Cabin

[Torques]

Hi there,

I need to route 2 wires from the passenger door into the cabin (addition of central locking).

What's the best way/smartest way of doing this?

There seems to be just this one door connector and it doesn't look tweak friendly

Car is R33 GTSTS2

Thanks!

why add wiring? if it is already there use it.

Sorry,

I meant to write the driver side door, not passenger.

To my knowledge there is no 2nd pair which I could use.

Normally there is only that switch which is linked to the door latch.

Now the actuator (from an Almera) fits 100% and includes the switch (which triggers passenger side) but also needs 2 wires for the actuator functionality.

So I need to route 2 wires into the cabin in order to connect it to the alram system.

Sorry for the mixup

ah ok. forward of the door boot there is a small grommet. pop the side indicator light out and look back toward the door and it will be visible. bit of twin core jacketed cable throught that and a small cut through the door side of the door harness and you are in.

good to see you worked the actuator out. model changes across countries make things like that hard.

Hi Chris,

Thanks for the input, will get to it in a minute.

(Can't wait to have a proper central locking)

Yes, a Nissan Almera (1995) doorlatch was exactly what I needed.

The actuator fits right in .. works beautifully.

On the left the Skyline locking switch, right the Almera actuator (4 wire)

yep that is the same as the ones I use. mid 90s unit. did you get the plug with it?

[Torques]

Yes!!

I made sure to get the loom for it (makes it so much nicer)

[Chris Rogers]

good job. you will not have half the problem that the aftermarket actautors have doin it this way.

[Torques]

Thanks,

all done now, works very smoothly and without any noise.

It's been a bit of a job since I had to revisit my alarm system wiring which had not been finished until the actuator was installed.

This 'mod' really propelled my car into the 21th century

Gone are the days fumbling with that key ..

[Chris Rogers]

it will give zero trouble as well. good job!
