CM800-S Install 1995 Buick Park Avenue

0 votes
1995 Buick Park Avenue - Remote Start is operational  and Tachometer operational with White wire connected at Ignition Control Module.

However --> Park Lights do not illuminate, correct wire is hooked up (to Drk Brown lower driver's kick), shows + 12v only when Park Switch is On; also Trunk Open not operational, wire connected to Black/White Stripe lower driver's kick).

I purchased the WireColor page for 1991-1996 Buick Park Avenue, and there no photos to correspond with the #'s of the wires in Tab One. The information for this item said there would be  photo's. Is there a glitch in the system?

Would appreciate the photo's for the WireColor entry for 1991-1996 Buick Park Avenue and/or some ideas to get this installed.

Thanks for your response. Gerald

PS. Will email you pictures as I am doing this if you wish
send me an email address privately, if you want pictures they would be a great help to others

The parking lights are easy enough to check, check that you have 12v when parking lights are on, Please test that this 12v does not go away or vary with the dimmer switch being lowered.

 

Once the wire has been identified using the above mentioned test, then use a fused wire with 12 v to power up the wire and check if all parking lights illuminate.

For the trunk release, are you at the button itself or the wire going to the back of the vehicle?

Thanks, ran the park light wire out to the Driver's Side Park light, tan wire/white stripe, all park lights working now.

Regarding Trunk Release, hooked up Trunk Release Black At Trunk Switch Driver's Side dash. Trunk is working with CM800-S remote now.

Thanks for your responses.

 

To control Trunk Release, you will want to locate and test the wire listed as 117. Trunk Release.
