Scosche Troubles
Alright, for those who read my post a few days ago, my car door locks wouldn't work. Solution? I took it to the dealer.
Today they called me and told me all the codes were coming from my aftermarke radio kit AKA the scosche kit. I checked all the wires and everything is connected fine, but it still won't work. I contacted them and they told me they could replace the buttons for me but I highly doubt a piece of plastic will remove all these codes. Should I try and get a whole new unit to replace this faulty one, or just give up and plop in the factory radio :( Please HELP! |

From the looks of the readout, there is a wiring problem in the door lock circuit. I dont have that kit (i have metra, which has its issues too) but im sure it controls the door locks. There is a short to ground in the door lock circuit. This means that the door lock circuit is "grounding" out somewhere to the chassis of the car. Perhaps a pinched or nicked wire somewhere touching a metal part of the chassis directly somewhere. Or there really could be a problem in the actual kit somewhere. Id look for pinched, nicked, loose wiring somewhere. If you could find out which wire is to the lock circuit, maybe you could test/isolate where it is with a continuity tester.

Update.. I put the factory radio in and everything and It still doesn't work. I am going to take it back to the dealer tomorrow for them to look at it. Window is not going up (passanger window) and the lock/unlock button is broken.
When car has been sitting for awhile then the window will work but after 10-20 seconds will automatically go back down. Help. |
