Wow thank you this is extremely helpful!
The car definitely had central locking on all doors but a lot of stuff got ripped out when it was stolen, seems like nothing really works anymore do you think i need to maybe check over fuses? Is there anything else i can do to find out what’s stopping central locking?
As for the insurance... My first car got written off when i was 19 and i made an irresponsible decision i guess hahahaha i paid 3k for the skyline and i’ve never had comprehensive/fire and theft on it because it would have been like 5k for the year and I just like it too much/am too unhinged to sell it? Idk couldn’t explain if i tried but i’m almost 25 now so it’s probably time for some big girl comprehensive i guess!
I have no idea what was up with my alarm/immobiliser... I did have one but clearly it wasn’t too effective! On my cameras they were dicking around trying to hotwire it for literally 30 minutes... safe to say getting one of these cars as someone who knows nothing about them has been a wild ride
I’m not sure if i have this right but from what i understand after reading this, i don’t need to replace anything in my door cards to add an alarm system, so the central locking issue must be coming from somewhere else? This has gotta be a laughably stupid question but uhh how tf do the solenoids know that a different key is unlocking them???i’m definitely missing something here hahahahahaha
Good point, dodgy immobiliser/alarm would definitely be potential for disaster. I’m just buying the parts for now and seeing if i can maybe do anything myself because i can’t find a single place that can install an alarm for me until september
Thanks heaps for your help!! And sorry for the rambling!
