DUDE, thank you so much for this video! I have had all the parts to install power door locks in my 2004 Rubicon, I just hadn't gotten around to it because I had no idea how to do it. Your video was very helpful and I actually installed them a couple days ago. I still have to do the tailgate thought, but thanks again!

so, have the solenoids held up to this day? i see the kit comes with 4 so thats cool.. great video.. why did you mount the controller in the engine bay? does it recommend that?
@ianmburke5 жыл бұрын
I just recently sold the Jeep and have a new Jeep now but they were working they were a little cheaper so the wires needed to be repaired at the door a few time and yes them coming with 4 is a failsafe to have a replacement. Engine bay for the controls was just because it was easier.

@ianmburke7 жыл бұрын
Glad it helped! I purchased a cheaper model that I assume will be in production (size and style wise for awhile) I also purchased the set of 4 so I could do the trunk and have a spare if one ever went bad: a.co/1tHvi4T $30 on amazon. So if there is a problem they handle defects and returns nicely.

Thanks so much for the video. If you don’t mind can you answer a question. Does this kit have a trunk button? Was wondering if I could put one on the tailgate and have it work separate. Thank you
@ianmburke6 жыл бұрын
Fi Metal the set I purchased had 4 actuators so with a two door vehicle one could be used for the trunk however the fob did not have a separate button to control it. I am sure with a quick search on Amazon you could find one that has a separate button for a trunk lock though.

Does this drain your battery at all? Or does it only use power from the battery when you press the remote?
@ianmburke3 жыл бұрын
It only really uses battery when the remote is activated I'm sure there is a small standby consumption so if left without cycling the ignition for more than a few weeks if pop the fuse out but otherwise you should be fine

i’m back. So mine is acting funny, the car is currently locked and when i press the unlock button one second later it locks by itself without pressing anything and it stays like that. At first when i first installed it, it was working fine with both buttons, unlock and lock. Then the fuse blew out, i replaced it and everything went from there . Also when i unplug the driver side trailer pin the passenger works normal with the button ( unlock when pressing unlock button and locks when i press lock button) I must’ve wired something wrong but i don’t know what. i already tried switching from green wire to green wire to blue and green and instead it kept locking and unlocking non stop.

Jesse Ramos not sure if this you mean the remote battery or not but I haven't replaced them yet and it's now over a year - I assume a two year battery life roughly.
