Alarm installation, power door lock help!
Alarm installation, power door lock help!
Hey guys, I need some help. I picked up a basic alarm a couple months ago (arm/disarm, keyless entry, panic, etc) and was totally stumped when installing it. I set up the speaker, the light that flashes, and the shock sensor, so I can arm and disarm it and the car goes off when it shakes, but thats about it, pretty much worthless. I saw the guide available online when I bought it, thinking I could just follow step by step, but didn't realise that it was for the cars with a BCM only. so my question is, where do I need to hook up the wires from the alarm? what color are they, where are they at, etc?
When I installed my alarm, (Ungo MS2007), I tried hooking up the lock/unlock wires to the OEM keyless entry, but that just messed things up, so I broke down and ran wires into the passenger side door, to the lock/unlock wires there. My alarm brain is behind the glove box, hence it was easier to run them to the passenger side door. I'm not sure which exact wires I hooked them up too.
Here is Brent's site on installing car alarms. It is mainly for OBD II cars, but I found much of it really close. Also, you can download the zip file with OBD I wireing and stuff, and that will tell you the color, the location, and all that stuff about all the wires.

thanks for the help guys, but I lost the wiring diagram so I'm not gonna be able to do it anyways. lol. How much does it cost to get an alarm at a car audio place, and have them install it?
actually, out of curiousity, are most of the systems out there the same? could I just find a diagram from another alarm and use it? because w/ JJ's95B4C's info i'm sure I could do it fairly easily. the door lock wires are on a seperate harness, there are 6 of them ( grey, brown, light blue, green, yellow, yellow/black) anyone know if this is a standard format? thanks
All alarms are pretty much standard in how they handle things. For example, the alarm will either pulse a negative or positive to operate the locks (unless you have some switches set to make it last a little longer but this is rare). Usually the alarm has on its case what wires are what. Does your alarm? If so, you can use that info along with the wiring info specific to the Camaro which you've already been given and you should be good to go!

I popped off the kick pannel and trim piece, and found the light blue and dark blue wire running through the door and cut both of them (I know the blue and green wires on my alarm harness are for lock/unlock so there are only two possibilities) but first tried to use the power locks, and they still worked fine both ways. these obviously weren't the lock wires, so now I have no Idea where they are at

no, the box doesn't have the wiring info on it, and I lost the sheet it came with
but also, I don't know if this info is correct:

I haven't opened the above posted zip file to compare that info with what is in the zip file but I can tell you for sure the zip file is correct... that's what I used to wire mine up.
