I'm here trying to install an alarm system on my car, and we cant seem to figure out which of the instructions to follow regarding the power door locks: Which of the following does a 1996 240sx have??? I hope someone can help!!!!

1) equipped with central lock and lock motor on driver's side door

2) equipped with central lock but no motor on drivers side door

3) equipped with central lock and a control switch on the drivers side

I'm faiiiirly sure its number 3.....but I want to be sure. Help?

I think i'm gunna go over to nissan today and try to see what wiring diagrams they can give me if any?

going to the dealership will probably will not help much, but heres something that may help.
with the alarm you should have gotten a wireing diagram. on the diagram there should be 2 or three wires comming out for the door locks, one will be marked (-)lock, (+)unlock one of the others will be marked (-)unlock, (+)lock. on your 240 you would attach the

(-)lock wire to the lite green/white wire by the drivers kick pannel
(-)unlock wire to the brown wire by the drivers kick pannel

if the alarm has a negative trigger capability (most do) then thats it.

hope this helps
