Hey guys,

I took out a laserline alarm/immobiliser system from my 99/00 WRX a while back, and made my car start just by turning the key (without immobiliser or anything hooked up). However, the previous installer had taken out the central locking control unit, and when I locked the drivers door, the other doors didnt lock.
I sourced a unit from a wreckers and put it in, but still the central locking did not work. I cannot for the life of me find an accurate wiring diagram for the locking system of my model. Every one I have found seems to be of some Canadian/LHD version and all the wires on the diagram are completely different to what I look at.
Anyways, long story short, there are 4 wires that run from the control unit -
black
white
Light green
Red
When I put any of the wires in contact with the white wire, all doors lock, and when I take it out of contact, they unlock.
I am guessing there is some switch etc in the system around the drivers door lock that isnt working/not connected

Anyone done any playing around/installing of the central locking wires or connecting central locking to an alarm unit?

O.k.......

If the original installer had replaced the factory drivers door lock actuator with an after market one, you may be stuck.

Fobz has done a rework in his V6 sti using the factory module and relays, Pm him for some info or look at the DIY section of his website

Thanks Rossco, I was actually starting to think about aftermarket central locking kits... if it is a different actuator, this would explain the wires being different to the wiring diagrams yeh?

Will look thru Fobz' site now

Possibly, but different markets had different systems (i.e uk is different to aus) so if your looking at a uk wiring diagram it will be a little different.

looking at the thing on Fobz' website started me thinking... after a bit of a play around & some part swaps (good having a brother who is doing a rebuild lol) i have determined that my lock actuator is faulty, it was as simple as replacing that!
Will be trying to repair the old one, my brother will probably need his after he's got his car running haha

Great result mate!

Was the one in your door a factory one or not?

yeh it was factory, but something in it must be busted. Was good to find the solution, and an easy/cheap one too!

turns out the RHS door lock actuator that was busted is worth a whopping $265 or thereabouts new from Subaru parts.... I dont suppose anyone has one to spare? even if i have to buy the whole door off you, i cant really spend THAT much on a simple part!

Item [7] in the pic below is the part i'm after...
