Ok as my current alarm system has blown up so no more remote central locking I need to replace it....

I didnt install the old system, but I did remove it (its really not hard defeating an engine imobaliser..) and have the following left in place...

aftermarket two wire motor in driver door

plan is to wire the aftermarket motor in parrallel into the original motors, then connect the negative outputs fro mthe new alarm to the key switch return wires, thus havign the new alarm 'simulate' the key switch being operated...

the new alarm has a maximum output of 300ma on these connections..anyone know what the relay draws?

if its more than 300ma then I will put extra relays in place to switch the current, but I hate to do that if I dont need too...
