Got a factory base alarm and keyless entry kit for my daily Lancer.
Hooked it all up today and appeared to be working fine for a bit.
There seems to be a problem unlocking the thing remotely.
It has a dual stage unlock, so press the remote once, it unlocks the drivers door and then press it again and unlocks the passenger side.
When I press it once, I can hear the actuator although it doesnt unlock the drivers door (there is slight movement in the inside lock knob though)
When I press it again, it seems to sometimes unlock the drivers side and also the passenger one as well. Other times, it unlocks then locks on the second press.
I have no problems using the key to unlock on the drivers side or passenger side, and locking with the remote has no issues as well.
So I am guessing that either, something is catching making it difficult to unlock the drivers door, actuator needs lubing? or the actuator is stuff and not providing enough to unlock.
Any ideas? Thanks
