Tested my actuator on the passenger side and it works... so im kind of stuck as i know sweet fa when it comes to wiring. I noticed the drivers side has 2 extra pins that the passenger didnt black and brown with yellow stripe. Any recommendations?

[Ian91]

The extra wires are so if you manually lock/unlock that door it will do the rest. If your having trouble finding a genuine actuator I'll tell you a trick.

We bought a np Pajero and a couple of the doors weren't locking/ unlocking with the key in drivers door. I rang around a few wreckers for actuators and no one local had. So I went down to supercheap, bought one of those cheap af central locking kits, not even the one with the remote ( so like $39 or some shit). Then I just removed the existing actuator and modified the bracket to fit the supercheap parts, just have to test as you go to make sure your wiring the polarity right otherwise the door might lock when you press unlock. So the 3 wire actuators worked for all the doors besides the drivers. Once I'd done that I brand a remote home from work and programmes it in and somehow, even though the drivers door worked with the key to lock/unlock the rest it wouldn't lock/unlock with the remote. So I pulled that door apart and dos the same thing but used the 5 wire actuator instead. Works 100% every time and now if they break again I have a couple spare 3 wire units and if I need another drivers side just go buy a whole kit instead of the 200-250 or some shit mitsu wanted lol.

Hope this helps!

I've been talking with him through txt. It's not his actuator.

He was buying one off me but there's no need as he plugged it into the passenger side and it works.

It's something to do with wiring. The wiring in his door has been mucked around with. To me it almost looks like it's a harness from the passenger door of a GSR.

As one of the extra connectors that's there looks like the connector that go's to the switch on the back of the lock on a GSR front passenger door. Evo's don't have this at all. (EVO300's car is an EVO 3.)

And no model that I've seen has it on the drivers door....

We're still looking into it. Starting with the big red relay inner the dash. And then work our way back through the wiring to the door.

[EV0300]

All sorted big thanks to GSR 95T for troubleshooting with me. Someone had swapped a passenger gsr door loom into the door for whatever reason and the pins are in different configuration. Luckily someone local had a door loom swapped it over and it was all good. Happy to have remote locking!

[GSR 95T]

All good. Just stoked it's all sorted for you bud.

The Evo 2 has the same setup for remote central locking.

 

I have seen an Evo 1 with the remote integrated into actual key, so they must have had something there.

 

Nice write up fella's - was looking for this info for ages!

[GSR 95T]

Cheers man glad it helped...

[CM5A]

You don't happen to know how to do evo 1 as its different... I've tried what you do here but no good... and I'm curious as to the aerial bit..?? In the evo 1 there is a module in the drivers door and it has no aerial..??

[GSR 95T]

I'm not 100% with the evo 1 setup as I've never done it myself.

And with the aerial, again never seen an E1 setup so don't know if it is suppose to have one. Does the module have a aerial plug ??(like an aerial plug on the back of your headunit.!!). If it does then yes it should have one... If it doesn't then no it shouldn't have one !!

You say it has the Set1 - Fix - Set2 switch !! If it has this then it should be the exact same process to set up a key for it....

Look to see if it needs an aerial and go from there. If it does get an aerial.... If it doesn't need one, Try the process again..

Try doing it sitting in the car with the door trim off and all doors close... Also make sure the central locking is set so the doors are unlocked !!.

Flip the switch to "Fix" for a few seconds if it's not already there !! Then flip it to "Set 1" and hit the button, your central locking should lock, then flip the switch back to "Fix.".. Wait a few seconds then press the button again. This should unlock the central locking... From there on it should just work as intended... Lock - Unlock.

If this doesn't work then yeah I'd say either your module or key FOB are buggered.

Give it a go and get back to us...

I got an evo 3, wiring and Aerial are hooked up , I have a three button fob but I can’t get it to work/sync up at all. My central locking works when I lock my doors from the drivers side

[!Jonzap!]

have you checked if the transmitting frequency of your fob is correct for the receiver? the factory fob has 2 buttons

[GSR 95T]

As stated above the factory EVO 3 Key FOB is a 2 button FOB. That looks like this.




If you have a 3 button FOB then thats probably why it’s not working. Post a pic of your FOB.

Yeah I got the three button urgh. so I should look for a 2 button from a similar Mitsu car of that age group.

[GSR 95T]

That’s a Mitsubishi Eclipse key FOB. Also 3000gt are the same as that.

I’ll get a list together of models that came with this 3 button and also the 2 button that we need.

Some of these cars came with a 2 or 3 button FOB For the same model car.

Like the 3000gt Some have the 2 button and some have the 3. There’s a few 3 button ones on eBay now but no 2 button ones

Gotcha! I’ll be on the look ouut for a two button

here is a 2 button remote but the board number is 1 digit off

[GSR 95T]

Yeah I’ve seen a few that all look the same but all have different numbers. And all are $150 plus dollars for second hand ones. If they were 50-60. It might be worth risking it but at 3 times that.. not sure.

I’ve found a few places with them new for about the same price but all are out of stock and most say no longer available...

It says it’s for an eagle talon, which there are plenty here in my area. I’ll look around and ask the talon guys for a spare!

[!Jonzap!]

The remote operates on 307.9mhz and I have found a locally delivered model for Aussies and NZers that share the same frequency as the CE9A Evo's remote, it's the NL Pajero.
I made a short video of the remotes working, the board numbers are in the video and description.

Thread resurrection!

 

WHen my EVO 1 got broken into the first time, I purchased a new original key with the transmitter in the actual key.  Programmed it to the standard remote receiver and it worked fine (my original key also worked fine) 

Got broken into again, and even though there doesn't appear to be any damage to the remote and antenna components,  the lock barrel is stuffed but since then my "remote" locking doesn't work.

 

Does the "remote" locking  on the EVO1(with the key near the receiver dot on the side of the door) depend on the lock barrel working?  From what I can see with the door trim off it shouldn't matter?

 

Perhaps it is a case of the control unit being "stuffed" but I can't imagine the key is the issue given how new it is and the condition it's in.
