Hello,
Today I took apart part of my dash and I've been working on my keyless entry wiring so that I can have illuminated entry.

I found out from http://www.the12volt.com that the door trigger wire is a red and white wire in the driver's side kick panel and that it's negative. Here's a pic to illustrate what I'm about to say:

The green arrow points to the only red and white arrow that I found in the kick panel, but when I took out the connector that connects the wire to another wire(The connector is circled), it doesn't affect anything. The door open sensor appears to act normally, whether the connector is in or out.

If anyone has installed an alarm or keyless entry on their Celica, can you tell me which wire I need to tap into to get my illuminated entry to work? Thanks!

Thanks for the replies guys! I did check that the dome lamp was set to door, so that's not the problem.

Wouldn't I not want to tap into the wire that comes directly from the sensor, because that wire not only turns on illuminated entry, but it's also the wire that enables your headlights to turn off and turns on the door open light in your guage cluster? Or would this not really matter. I could picture it working if you tapped directly into that wire, but I don't want to mess up anything else.

Also, does anyone know the color of this wire? I hate taking off my interior rear side panels, because they take me forever to get back on. Thanks!
