You're changing the lock. There are no wires. That's why I asked you what you were changing.

That would be the Passkey sensor for the security system. If you bought a lock that doesn't match, then you have the wrong lock. They are made with and without that system.

If the old one didn't have it, then your car isn't equipped with it.
