I installed the power door lock modules in a 1994 GMC 3500 dump truck.The truck had no power locks and no power windows.Adding the power lock motors into the doors does take an average amount of mechanical skill.This is not a job for a complete novice.
After pulling the interior door skins and peeling back the moisture barrier I had to choose a location for the lock motors.I found a location that didn't interfere with the window crank mechanism and was inline with the exsisting door lock linkage.After mounting the motors with the included hardware I had to bend and trim the included push/pull rod that links the motors to the existing lock, which was pretty easy.I attached the bent rod to the motors and the existing lock linkage with the included clamp.
I then drilled a 3/4" hole into both door jams (driver/passenger) and ran the included wire harness to the included lock control module.I used tie wraps to attach the module securely under the driver side dash.I connected the red wire to a spare + lug on the fuse block and the black to a chassis ground.
After testing the system, I put the doors back together.The whole process took about 4 hours (with lots of breaks).It should be able to be completed in about 3 hours, even less if you have a helper.
The nice thing about a "central locking" system is if you unlock/lock one door by the existing door lock button or by the key, the other door unlocks/locks by power.
After installing the lock system I installed a remote start into this vehicle.The lock module has 2 spare wires to connect to a keyless entry system, which I used.It works flawlessly.I've been using this for about 2 months now with no problems.For the money...you can't beat it.
