how to install KEYLESS power DOOR LOCKS on ANY VEHICLE for $30

[@martingutsch6985]

This is the video where a project including door actuators started to seem feasible to me, thanks a lot!

[@chriscraft77022]

they still work perfect to this day

[@evolutionsfake]

"It did not come with instructions... but we'll figure this out!" This is going to be my new go to line whenever I get asked ANY how-to question ever again.

[@BuzzCutDude]

This video gave me the knowledge to install these locks on my 1997 Dodge Dakota solid tutorial! They work great

[@jaime20202]

The ending of the video with the train horn was lit. 🔥

[@cluek9780]

Just stumbled here from your Saginaw rebuild. Finding your vids practical and heads up... even if the vehicles are older than mine. Subbed

[@jamesconner489]

Can you program a different key fob to it?

[@RizwanMalik-nl6gm]

watching your vid on 30th jan 2024 now this whole setup costs me 12$ i have ordered them from china.Mine also came with indicators flashing on lock and unlock. lol

[@BattleBorg69]

Gonna spread the sauce friend?

[@SprayWayCustoms]

Great video Chris

[@美国加州注册公司莱美]

Hi, May I please know if you can help me with the power door installation on 2023 wrangler? Thank you very much.

[@chriscraft77022]

update: i was re watching this because im about to do this on a brand new 2022 tacoma (and make a video) ... they still work perfect to this day.BUT THIS KIT has a huge parasitic draw that will drain your battery after a few days.. so keep that in mind if you get this exact kit

[@isaacziebarth1386]

What do you recommend now is a kit?

[@angelo7095]

Nice, going to try mine today

[@Scott-NCC1701]

Great Video. Will help my installation go better. Thanks!

[@AndysDogHouse]

Hey Chris. Nice job. That was so easy. Well easy once I see you do it. Thanks for sharing Chris. 🍁👍

[@Kikeman9]

Hi friend, Do you can still use the lock button that is on the handle? Or you can only lock/unlock the car with the remote?

[@Mylotheblacknwhitecat]

Hey I wired the 5 wire lock color to colors matched the drivers side was 5 wires and the other side has green blue But mine has 2 orange wires where do they get wired thanks

[@JeepTJWheelin]

Definitely installing this in my '05 TJ Rocky Mtn, Great video!

[@chriscraft77022]

you cant go wrong, literally

[@bariscokmar]

Hello, I know you didn't like the remote. Can you change it? Like can you program an actual key fob or something to give a signal?

[@sawred32]

How do you run the wire from the driver's side all the way to the passenger door?

[@ambiguous3886]

Wonder how long before the hole in plastic solenoid plunger cracks open and the rod falls out. The cheap plastic used overseas nowadays is beyond junk. Hope it keeps working for you and you get more than one season out of it. That motor really slams the plastic plunger into the metal rod. Something has to give unfortunately. Hope you bought the 4 door kit so you have some spares. I put aftermarket power windows in my '96 Silverado and I ordered 2 kits when I made the purchase. Good thing because the driver's motor crapped out after ~2 years.

[@chriscraft77022]

I bought the cheap ones because I don’t daily that Jeep. They still work perfect but will drain the battery if you leave it for a few days

[@ambiguous3886]

@@chriscraft77022 Oh damn- thanks for telling me that. I was thinking of buying a 4-door set for my classic Corvette so I'd have two extra actuators. I could live with having to replace them but NOT a dead battery! Car only comes out for car shows and an occasional drive so I'll have to check for a more reputable setup. Thanks again for that input.

[@chriscraft77022]

@@ambiguous3886 I HAVE CLASSIC CARS..I WOULD NEVER PUT THIS ON ONE

[@ambiguous3886]

@@chriscraft77022 The reason this made sense to me is that my Corvette doesn't have power locks and when I take it to car shows things have gotten so out of hand with the lawlessness that I lock the doors whenever I walk away from it to look at the other cars and talk to friends. Each time I do that I risk of accidently scratching the paint with the door lock key. I figured everything would be out of sight so no one would be the wiser and it might mitigate an accident and/ or some malcontent just opening the door and getting in. Since you mentioned your battery gets drained and goes dead on a regular basis I realized that the electronic module that receives the signal from the key fob is always on and just waiting to respond to a key fob lock or unlock press. I started wondering why ALL cars with power accessories similar to locks don't have this problem and realized that factory units are designed for real cars by real engineers and the receiver circuitry used and designed for the unit has super low current requirements and are designed for this not to happen. These online Chinese units are probably some crude receiver that is normally used where external power is constantly supplied and they just stock that in a case and called it a day not caring if people get stuck. My heated seats failed 2 years ago and the repair was cost prohibitive so I bought a cheap pair that plug into the power outlets in the car. Turn them off and leave them plugged in and the battery is dead in the car in 2 days. Go figure.

[@michaeldefilippis2818]

Great videos. Nice work.

[@asj8907]

Who’s the manufacture on your side steps/rock rails? By the way great video info.

[@chriscraft77022]

I have a video on them I don’t remember the name

[@spencerwhite6741]

Can you give nay more tips on the wiring part? That's the hardest to understand for me.

[@djanebybarbie2267]

Anyone know for this specific kit with that remote; the brown and white wires what buttons they correspond to? Im trying to get the horn for panic and also the markers to flash at least for locking; I know this kit is cheap but I know im onto something

[@Kevin15673]

A jeep guy that actually does proper wiring? Didn't know those even existed. Honestly though, the only change I would make is at 8:05 I'd use uninsulated terminals and then use glue lined heatshrink on them so the crimps are 100% waterproof and wont corrode.

[@dysentinel2894]

can this increase likelihood of theft?

[@DeepSeaTadpole]

I'm ordering the parts. Could you possibly tell me what size the wires are?

[@maxchartier]

nice jeep and nice job!

[@photondebuger45]

INTERESTING...... kinda want to do that to my Sonoma there are versions that have that yes but this one doesn't have it and I like it for what it is I got it 👌cheap lol and running too needs stuff but what car/truck don't lol.

[@zacharymaciel9126]

Great video man 👌

[@nathandavids4442]

I installed the same kit on my car, but I found that it would unlock randomly. I could get it to lock but it unlocked sometimes right away or after a few minutes. I never hit the buttons after locking. Did you have this problem?

[@chriscraft77022]

no

[@jamesacker7343]

My 04 tj works like I expected. One thing I noticed is if I use the manual lock button on the inside drivers door unlocks both doors unlock but only locks the drivers door. Is that normal

[@chriscraft77022]

I honestly only use the key fob.. I have never manually locked or unlocked them.. I’ll check it out soon here

[@jamesacker7343]

@@chriscraft77022 I found out that now it works both ways. It just needed a little rod adjustment and now the drivers door locks and unlocks both doors. I hope the draw when it sits doesn't run my battery down.

[@chriscraft77022]

It WILL drain your battery completely dead in like a week.. happened to me 3 times.. I start mine up every 3 days and I’ve been good

[@jamesacker7343]

@@chriscraft77022 I let my 2004 to sit for 1 week and went out today and it started normally and the temp here in Southern Indiana was 20 degrees.

In 1 week mine cranks slow 2 weeks kills my battery 100%

[@angeloc3842]

Didn’t do the tale gate? I was wondering if it had a trunk popper in it too. ( for my classic car)

[@chriscraft77022]

the kit comes with 4 actuators.. i did not do the tailgate..

[@mobdice1361]

Hi Chris, does that brand comes with the parking light signals?

[@chriscraft77022]

I don’t know what that is.. everything that came in the kit is shown.. so I guess not

[@oumlowe8885]

Where can I buy one for my jeep?

[@AZTSER2]

Where you located?

[@KRoyfrmdaE]

Would you be able to program a different key fob to this

[@retrowave90s98]

Need help understanding is it supposed to like slow thief’s down or stop them from busting through the door handles just wondering because this happened to my 03 Tahoe last night and I need something that can protect it from being stolen

[@tmoe1153]

Bro this for people without automatic door locks 😂 but sorry tht yo stuff got broke into but I always advise a glock it’s always a good anti theft

Will they work on a wrangler 2020

[@eriklee7511]

Did you hook yours to the horn

[@chriscraft77022]

🤔

[@fredpesant]

Very good video !!! Thanks

[@joshehannalldayeverydaye]

Thank you !

[@arianamcgarrah9872]

Can you do this on cars that you have to lift the handle in order to lock?

[@chriscraft77022]

you should.. as long as the lock has a lever you can do it

[@shannonteal]

@@chriscraft77022 could you please elaborate? I have a 2017 Jeep Patriot and there are no buttons just locks that you push up or down. Is this still doable?

[@BobbyNazareth-xy6qc]

Thankyou so much

Well this work on a jk?

excellent!

think I'm going to bring my 76 gran Torino to the 21st century.

[@renlebeaumondenyc9327]

Only issue I see here is - it’s not plug and play so it would be an issue taking your doors off from the wrangler

[@edgarh252]

How are they doing now ?

[@chriscraft77022]

they work perfect but if you don’t drive the car it WILL drain your battery in a few days

[@mmb1487]

Ha ha hell yeah

[@MikeSmith-cc4wf]

Oh no you get a big fucking surprise there's no batteries in the remotes.... You mean you got lucky and you got batteries with your remotes?

Better Idea Remove The Lock And And Door Then Anyone Can Open It.
