INFO: Central locking ECU/wiring for remote
Posted: Thu Mar 13, 2014 6:29 pm
I got myself an after market alarm system for my wee corsa, which also operated the central locking via remote. The problem I came across was finding the central locking ECU and finding which wires I needed to tap into to lock/unlock the car.
Some forums suggested that the central locking control unit was "beneath" the cars main ecu and perhaps I took it too literally as I looked beneath/below(as in lower down) and couldn't find it. IMO it is "behind" the main ecu:
Once I removed it and it's bracket I was able to access the central locking brain:
Also to help any other folk installing an alarm or remote central locking, the wires you need from the central locking control unit are
Brown/red - lock
Brown/white - unlock
I hope this is useful for others
