remote auto down, help. Ok, i have a question. I have done the auto down mod on pass side. I did it with a Gm module. It wires in parrellel with a power and ground. then u wire a wire (that originally went straight to window motor) in the module then out to the window motor. ok that isnt exaclty perfect but this isnt my problem. Can i take the pusle signal from the remote and sent it to the module, since the window swith only sends a "signal" to the module for the 1 sec u have to push it. So can i use the pulse signal from the remote to activate the module in the same way that the window switch does. I mean it sounds like it would work,.....( I think) but i dont know. Anyone have any info, before i go and experiment with it?

If you have done the progressive door lock mod then you can use the leftover wire as a second channel to control your window module. It will generate a pulse when you press the remote unlock button twice. Bear in mind that pressing the inside passenger door unlock button will also generate the same pulse so you might want to add a relay to prevent activation while the ignition is on.
Instructions for the progressive door lock mod are here: https://ls1tech.com/forums/wiring-stereo-electronics/177443-progressive-door-lock-mod-no-power-locks.html

yuo can't just add a wire and get autodown.
you need a window roll down module, to make the windows go down by remote.
there is no power to the power windows when your car is off, so the rolldown module provides that
I have the 1 touch, and it works great.
I have 2 sets of rolldown modules, and will be installing them for up and down soon. (the dei 530T does both, and 1 touch up and down) thats whati would have buy, but the rolldown modules i have were free.

I didnt think of no power to the motors because of the key being off. Well guess it wont work that way. Well it would i think if it had power, cause all the module needs is a signal to "activate."
Ok then, is the circuit on the power windows....switch to ground or load to ground. Anyone know?

However, if you aren't using an aftermarket windows module such as the DEI 530T then the module won't work unless the ignition is on or the retained accessory power is active. The factory setup has the switches, the window control module and the window motors all powered through the "Windows" circuit breaker. The circuit breaker only has power in ON, ACCY, or when the RAP is active.

There is no way to totally prevent the passenger unlock button from providing that pulse without disconnecting the unlock wire from the switch. However, you can add a relay into your accessory (window module) circuit that will disconnect the circuit while the ignition is on. That way, the door unlock button will work but the signal will only trigger the window module when the ignition is off (e.g. to roll up the windows when setting the alarm).
The factory window module is mounted to the floor mat at the firewall in the center of the dash (behind the heater & A/C controls).

The DEI window control module is wired differently than the factory module. It requires cutting into the window switch wiring and it has a 12V feed from the battery so that it is available regardless of the ignition switch. The pulse from the second press of the unlock button on the remote can then be used to trigger the module to lower the windows.
