1996 accord EX Keyless entry installation
Hi everyone, I joined this forum because I am working on my 1996 Accord Ex.
I have been reading the other posts on installing keyless entry systems and I am almost there.
I purchased a Avital keyless entry and as I was installing it I realized that the previous owner had done the same, and must have lost the remote. I almost have it hooked up except for the last wire. Please excuse my ignorance of electrical systems. I have lock and unlock connected, but from what I have been reading I need to find the negative door trigger. I actually took apart the switch on the door panel and hooked the 3 wires directly into there and the remote worked. Constant current, ground, and parking flash wires are all connect, I just need to find (what I think is the negative triggered ) under the dash, or if there is any other way to wire. Any help would be appreciated.

It took a little while to understand what you were asking, as the title of your thread is misleading. Your question is asking about the wire to trigger the alarm when a door is opened. There are keyless entry systems that are not part of a security system.
For the door open input wire to trigger the alarm, there is a Blk/Wht wire (-) coming from the gauge assembly (aka cluster) to a 20P gray connector (Connector C435) located to the right of the steering column. The Blk/Wire is at pin 5 of Connector C435. That is the same wire used by the optional Honda security system and the stock security system on SE models.
