2rta-1 valiant keyless entry installation


Recommended Posts

Hey fellas, well my driver door key will not work anymore as I read very common, so I decided the best approach is to install keyless.

2rta-1 from valiant, icdynamics. I e-mailed them my problem and their response was I need door actuators, thing is They're all ready installed. My Haynes manual shows 1 in each door. The door uses negative ground and so what I have is three wires coming from door switch,.. 2 which read 0 on meter and 1,.. which reads 5ish volts? Now from what I assume is the actuator, 5 wires which are reading 12 volts on lock and 12 on unlock , this is where it gets confusing. I first used the positive wiring and could hear the locks start to move but blew fuse, discovered I needed to do negative wiring so I rewired and thought I was doing things right, the modules click like I assume they would but no movement in locks. Am I missing something simple? Any insight from the experts or experienced?

The 2rta-1 by valiant is a cost effective way to access your doors. Key less is what its all about, the reason I installed was so I didn't have to unlock the passenger side door to access the drivers door, a real pain after awhile. I used an actuator :Flame: the actuator 524N High Power Door Lock Motor

10 lbs of pull in both directions. First the 2rta-1, comes with a 10 pin harness I believe, if I remember correctly, that really does not matter for what I used it for, just door lock, unlock capabilities.From the module ( the 10 wire harness-transmitter w/ antenna) all I need to use is red for constants + 12 volt red and black - for ground, that is all out of the 10 wires!! The module will hook up to relay with a pre-harnessed three prong, blue-green-red harness,this must be connected. Now from the relay you will hook up the blue wire to the blue wire of the actuator. the green wire to green wire, simple as it reads. the violet or purple wire to constant 12+ volt. The brown and white wire to ground. Your done, should work fine. As far as configuring the wiring and placement of components, there is a large cavity in the door panel to fit all of these. Thinking of youtubing to show, not alot of time but will try!! Hope this helps somebody!!!!
