progressive door lock mod = no power locks well i tried to do the progressive door lock mod today and now i cant get any of my door locks to work unless i use the key. the key fob doesnt work and neither do the buttons inside the car. at first i spliced the grey w/black stripe wire to the tan wire and nothing worked so i put the tan wire back together and the grey w/black stripe wire back together and still nothing works. i dont have the male/female connector, all i have is a connector going straight to the bcm. can somebody help me out here, im kinda stumped

Check this thread for more information. A description of the mod and how to do it is in the third or fourth post...https://ls1tech.com/forums/wiring-stereo-electronics/175413-auto-down-remote.html

ok, i did blow the fuse, so i tried doing this again, splicing the grey w/black stripe wire coming from the connector to the tan wire and my driver side power locks worked but the passenger lock still didnt work and the fuse blew again after pushing the buttons a few times, so i wired it back like it was and put a new fuse in and so far so good. so does anybody know the proper way to do this mod when you only have a connector going to the bcm?

Ok now through a little more research I'm finding that the BCM is just one module that everything plugs into correct? Also, the location is near the back of the glove box? Seems like that will make it pretty hard to get to. Haven't gotten off my lazy *** to search for the bad boy yet. With this setup I'd just be looking for my gray/black and tan wires running directly into the BCM rather than a harness?
TIA,
Justin

There are three plugs that go into the BCM. One is a 32-pin blue connector, one is a 6-pin black connector and the third is a 6-pin green connector. The green connector is the one you want to work with.
Unplug the green connector from the BCM to give yourself some slack to work with and to prevent accidental shorting. You will see five wires - tan, gray, red with black, orange with black, and gray with black. Cut the gray with black wire a couple of inches from the plug. Splice the end that goes into the harness (not the end that goes to the plug) into the tan wire. The easiest way is to use one of those scotchlock crimp-on connectors but stripping and soldering will make a better connection. Tape up the loose wire end, plug the connector back into the BCM and test.
Now both doors will unlock on the first press of the button on the remote. The loose end of the gray with black wire will provide a 12V pulse when the remote button is pressed twice so it can be used as a second channel for such things as a window control module. Bear in mind that the 12V pulse will also be produced when the passenger's inside unlock button is pressed so you will have to do something like having a relay prevent the pulse when the ignition is on.
