I have recently installed door actuators on my 95 Honda Civic LX on the two front doors. When I disarm and arm my car the keyless entry should be activated but it does not. Although the door actuators DO WORK but only when I have the key in the ignition and push the button to arm and disarm. What's going on? I know it's not the actuators or the wiring because they work. Please help!

Hi fabio_azevedo,

You have wired them incorrectly. The power supply should be from battery and NOT from ignition switch source.
