So, after poring over 10 years of posts and 22+ some odd pages I've come to a little bit of a conclusion here.
Looks to me where some the ones who fried the body control unit, these were several attempts at modifying the original idea. i.e. no diode, terminating at the bulb, and so on. Truth be told I will be modifying by putting in a LED as opposed to a regular diode and drilling a hole in the plastic cover that's above the lens for the LED. Just b'cuz I can. And I will be using the non solder terminate under the bar method, But other than that I believe it should be good. Just test the brown wire and make sure it's good before continuing. It should slowly return from ground to 0. Right?
You see, That's the only part of the info I can't find in all of the posts. What the actual reading the brown wire should be when the door is open and when the door closes and when all lights are off.
Another question? Did this mod always work 100% after done correctly? Or were there eventual failures? I think after almost 10 years there might be some feedback about that. I don't anticipate to be real issues when done correctly, but more info is always good.
So please sound off LGT peeps and let me know what your thinking.
Thanks
