thats the car. what would u pay of it i was thinking like $1000 for it because it dose not have power anything in it
dose any one know if the plugs for the locks and windows are in the door or do i have to wire them in.
What do you mean by "plugs"? The harness connectors?
ya srry harness connectors
that car i going to be geting has no power windows and locks or seats. so i just wanted to switch it to power windows and locks
The book I'm looking at, shows wiring in the doors as standard. It doesn't say anything about non power doors though
also says, keyless entry was optional wiring.
did you look at it?
If you look in the door jamb, you should see the rubber tube that the wires are going through. if you squeeze it, you should feel the wires.
If not, you could rewire that car with everything from your car including the motors and lock poppers and mirrors.
It wouldn't be a quick project, but anything can be done
the seats, the same thing.
You'll have to pull the seats and carpet to do both, unless the switch connectors are in the console already. you won't know until you investigate the wiring.
i have not see the other car yet when i go to see it i will look and see if i can find any wires fort the doors. i was just hooping the someone on her has done it and know if it dose or not. i gess i could wire it up if i had to i have the wireing book of it.
I would say it would be easy to swap everything. just a little time consuming.
i was looking at my books and seen that the keyless pad has most of its own wiring. is their anyway to wire the key pad in?
I swapped all the wiring for the 5.0 into my TC and made adapters to hook it up, but it'd be a cold day in Hell B4 I'd try to swap in keyless entry... It's a whole different operation... The current lock/unlock relays would not be used, plus wiring runs the length of the car and the module is in the trunk... I wired up a remote control Taurus module and use that...
i have one for it too. the unlocks it and opens the trunk
Yea, it could be done, but you'll be wiring from one end of the car, to the other. and swapping the keyless entry module.
I think I have a full wiring diagram of everything for the doors somewhere. If your going that route I'll find it for you.
i have the electrical and vacuum manual, shop manual vol.2 1 and 2.
