Dynolock Power Tailgate Lock Wires

I am looking for some help from someone who might have access to wiring diagrams for a 2011 Lariat SCrew to figure out what wires I have to tie into for my Dynolock.

I am in the front driver's side sill and have found the grey w/ brown stripe wire for the lock, but I can't find the right wire for the unlock. Based on other posts, the most common suggestion seems to be the blue w/ green stripe (which is what Dynolock suggests). I have two of those, one is a constant 12v and one does not respond to the unlock button. Anyone else have any suggestions?

Thanks for the help!

I feel your pain. I have a Dynolock kit collecting dust in my garage. I have a regular cab and cannot find the right wires. Emailing the vendor didn't help. I got the standard "You should be able to find one wire for locking and one for unlocking." response. Umm... yea.

Looking at the door lock actuator inside the door, I saw four wires going into it. In theory, two of those wires are the ones we need. However, when I stuck my voltmeter on each wire, I found live 12v on three of them at rest. I gave up at that point and pushed it aside for another day.

Just sign up for a short term subscription to the service manuals of your choice on http://www.motorcraftservice.com and get the info you are looking for. The wiring diagrams and all are available as part of the price. It's 11 bucks for 30 day or you can opt for a longer or shorter subscription.

On a separate but related note - http://www.motorcraftservice.com WILL NOT WORK if you use something other than internet explorer. Are you kidding me???? Talk about not ready for the internet. Ford owner <> Mac user?
