our civics are 4 door isolated???
 
i was wondering why my alarm doesn't warn me that my doors are open when i arm it the installers are telling me that the 2 and 4 door civics are diodes isolated which mean each door has it's own pin or something and the alarms only have 1 insert so how am i gonna get this alarm to give me warning when one of my doors are open.....it gives warning when a door is opened with the alarm activates but it's supposed to give me another warning when one of the zones are faulty( doors) .....any body know how to get around this ?????????

No,the installer got the wrong wire for the doors,you need diode isolation only to make you alarm arm automatic or by itself thats what they call passive arming.
so tell him that alarm is not working right.because if he got the right wire you alarm gonna let you know if any door still open after you armed like another beep or hork thats mean a zone is not protect it by your alarm.:):shake:

hmmm that is what i'm sayin fool anybody know which wire and were it is for the door trigger

i wonder which one it is that he caught.......

because the alarm goes off if a door is opened and the alarm is activated but doesn't give a warning if it's left open and i arm the alarm......where is the trigger for the doors?

why is it that those things happen what wire did he tap into?

the door triger is green and you can find it on the side kick panel is a green plug(the plug for the factory alarm[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG]wrap it on tape:eek:
I have a viper 550 with remote start and I did it my self so if you need any help let me know:tup:

Depending on what alarm you have it may have a progressive door trigger option.

i dont have a factory alarm on my ride that plug should be there tho still for the addon right???

i wonder what wire these guys hooked the wire up to then to make it not notice the door open??? is there other wires that will detect a door open when it's armed and set the alarm off but wont give a signal to tell the alarm that zone is defective when it's activated?

:eek: look man I gonna tell you what you need,this is what you have to do to make work,check the plug for the courtesy light is a small gray plug with white/blue on one side and green/black to the other (this plug is near from the green plug of the factory alarm) so just take the wire from you alarm that it said Door trigger(-)and wire to the green/black wire and thats it,and then test the alarm,try to leave a door open and you gonna hear an extra beep or hork whe you arm you alarm so let me know what happen after tried this.:tup:

HeRbaLuS 08-16-2002 03:18 PM

hmmm even if i dont have a factory alarm it's going to have that plug ?? where is the plug located?? i didn't install my alarm nor do i know how to do it but i'm gonna go and inspect the installation as soon as i find this plug. where it at???


digicam pics or something hook it up gotta get this thing working.

sador 08-16-2002 07:07 PM

HeRbaLuS 08-16-2002 08:38 PM
