adding power locks to existing wiring

[maldo]

I am planning a few projects for the next couple months and need some advice regarding the power locks. I am switching to power windows and will be getting the correct harness for the doors to activate them. Does this harness also contain the wiring for the power locks? If so, can I just tap into the harness to provide power to the actuators (which I have to purchase) or do I have to use those wiring kits that are usually provided with the actuators?

I just did the swap (power windows & wire harness) and from what I saw on the 92GS I swapped them from. The passenger door has the plug and the stock actuator, but the driver's side didn't have the actuator. I'm guessing that when the driver's lock is opened, the passenger lock opens and vice versa. If your planning on putting aftermarket door locksin, you can get power through the GS wire harness. But you will need relays for them.

Good to know, thanks.

I have an actuator, would it not just hook up to the wiring and work? The relay is already part of the dook lock actuator isn't it?

The one in the passenger side is actually a slave to the driver side's action, but, of course, not visa versa.

Me and my mechanic added an actuator (he had it laying around, thinks it came from a ford probe) to my driver side door to work my remote entry part of my 3-in-1 system (alarm, MTX remote start and remote entry).
