need to know which wire is the ignition switched supply on the back of the ignition housing ?

ie = live when ignition not on & not when ignition on.....

Escort turbo series 2

BEN FRST

Didyou mean live when ignition on on and not when ignition is off. If so then its the thick black one mate. The red one is battery positive, the black with blue is the starter and the yellow one is the accessory feed for the radio and so on

rst_cabby

No mate that's not it ....... trying to fit alarm but i have to connect to a power supply that is live when ignition is off ....... but is not live when ignition is on.......



doin me head in now .........

BEN FRST

sorry mate been fitting alarms for 10 years and never heard of it and this sort of feed does not exist. the only way that you would achive this is to wire it through a 5 pin change over relay. can tell you how to do this if you have no joy, but can you tell me exactly what the instructions say.....

rst_cabby

I'll dig the fitting instructions out - you may be able to help with central locking also


Not very good with alarms -

The alarm is A TOAD PRO CL ever fitted one ??

BEN FRST

sorry i hav'nt got back to you sooner mate been away, i hav'nt fitted many toad alarms its mainly clifford i fit but are all basically the same. If you put what ever the instructions say then i will point you in the right direction. Is your car a s2 turbo if so then the locking is easy



yellow is lock
white is unlock


These are negitive trigger behind the drivers side front speaker in the loom going into the door

Smart dude needed that bit of info - have rung around a few places but found ppl very off with me - 2 just put the phone down couldn't believe it !!!

Any how have instructions now .......

Rite i've got a .....

Orange - Connect to ignition = black - CONNECTED
Black - to earth - CONNECTED
Red - to live ? or permanent - CONNECTED
Green/brown - this is the flasher polarity & should be connected to either a permanent feed or an earth - the polarity of this connection will be determined by the polarity of the signal required to turn on the indicators ( NOT GOT A CLUE ON THIS ) ????
Grey - bonnet switch/boot switch - CONNECTED
Green - negative polarity door circuit ???
Yellow - positive polarity door circuit ???
Blue/Black - not used (output for aux)
Brown - to postive on siren - CONNECTED
Black/White - to indicators (diode slit if fed separately) ???
Brown/White - this is the alarm system armed output & provides an earth signal when the alarm is armed. ????


Then central locking left are ......... I Think this rite ???

Negative pulse system .......

blue/yellow - unlock normally closed - NOT USED
blue/red - unlock common - TO UNLOCK
red/black - unlock normally open - TO EARTH
grey/yellow - lock normally closed - NOT USED
grey/red - lock common - TO LOCK
red/yellow - lock normally open - TO EARTH

BEN FRST

hi mate all the wires that you have connected are all correct but the ones that you are stuck on are as follows

green/brown the flasher polarity is positive so connect to battery pos


green this one is the door circuit which you will pick up on the door switch drivers side which is brown/red


yellow this one is not needed


black/white inicators connect these to the black/green and black/white at the steering column, is this one wire or two if two you will need to use the diodes supplied with the alarm to make this output into two wires


If the diodes that come with your alarm are not labled then you will have a side with a stripe on this side must be connected to the the car side of the wiring and facing away from the alarm wiring

central locking



both of the common wires go to earth and you use the normally open outputs to the lock and unlock on the car which are the wires i tolc you about previously




Hope this helps mate

Ok will try the diode thing as the rest are now connected but still not working correctly ............
