EDIT: Figured it out and it was all me. I was trying to lock the doors with the door open. It had nothing to do w/ the keyless door module and everything to do w/ Toyota not wanting their buyers to lock their keys in their car w/ the keys in the ignition. (Leaving my original commend below in case anyone else has a brain fart and does the same thing...) I have a similar Amazon aftermarket keyless door lock system and have a weird issue. I have it wires as such from the harness that came w/ the alarm... 1998 Toyota Tacoma SR5 (Electric locks, just no remote capability from the factory) Red (12V+) Black (Ground) White (Pin 13) (12V+ Accessory/Ignition) - With this connected, it seems to lock and unlock the doors when I turn the key to Accessory White (Lock) Yellow (Ground) White/Black (Unlock) Yellow/Black (Ground) The remotes work just fine. It's when the truck is running (or in accessory) that things aren't right. The truck will not lock. I have disconnected the White (Pin13) Ignition wire and I get the same results. So with this white connected. I unlock the truck, get it, start the truck, the locks cycle to locked and quickly unlocked. I cannot manually lock the truck. They quickly unlock again. With this White (Pin 13) disconnected, I unlock the truck, get it, start the truck, the locks no longer try to lock (so this wire is to lock on start) I still cannot manually lock the truck. They quickly unlock when I try. Any suggestions?
@@DeanoKelley hmm difficult to say for certain but. I will experiment on my truck when I'm not working. It sounds like a "feature" to prevent you from locking your keys in your truck when it's running is interfering.
@@DeanoKelley I can say for certain that if my truck is running, and I get in and close all the doors and hit the lock button, the doors do infact lock and stay locked
I've got a 98 base Taco (California) none of the junction box plugs look like yours and the wiring diagram from toyota's page of plug styles don't have my configuration either. I suspect there's a California-only addendum that is top secret.
Interesting. If you get a cheap test light you can mostly figure it out I bet. This truck in the video was purchased in California although now it resides on the East Coast. If you're probing around and end up needing to cut a wire to test it, just cut it in a spot that gives you enough space to solder it back together on either side and you should be good.
Maybe you could use a test light? Hook the clamp to ground, hit the unlock button on your fob and probe the wire out of the control box....see if it flashes the test light
@@blakeevans-np2ib haven't wired it up to anything yet. You could potentially buy a cheap flasher relay, and wire it to the horn for a panic button? Still waiting to come up with something more useful.
