Go to a scrap yard,
Go to a donor car in a scrap yard, look up under the dash and there should be a
white relay clipped to the bulkhead or around the area of the clocks, looking like the picture above:
Pull it down/ unclip and cut away the insulating tape from the loom as far back into the main loom as possible.
Cut the three(3) wires and remove the unit.
The three wires are:
One grey
One Brown with red strip
One Brown with red strip
DISCONNECT THE BATTERY PLEASE AS YOU ARE PLAYING WITH ELECTRICS!!
Just in case you may get a shock, you are playing with electricity aren't you.
Clip the relay into your car and pull down your loom done by cutting the tie-wraps
under the dash.
Cut the insulation tape away at the desired position.
Find the wire that is the illumination for the buttons this is the grey yellow cable,
or the grey black cable coming from fuse six(6)
Strip the insulation from this wire and solder the grey wire from the relay to it.
Insulate the join with tape or heat shrink.
Next find the brown with red strip wire from the drivers door pin switch,
(one that makes the light come on when the door is open)
Connect both of the brown with red strip wires from the relay and this wire.
Insulate the joins and re tape the loom and clip it back up.
Re connect the battery
Close your door and turn on the side lights. Open the door and the buzzer should go off.
With the door open turn off your lights and the buzzer should stop,
likewise if the door is closed.
Hope this guide is of some help.
