    Great for 2003 F250
    I installed this keyless entry on my 2003 F250 after seeing a YT video online for this truck. The guy showed the whole install that took 20 min. It was nice because he shows everything you need to do with wire colors in real time. I highly recommend 2101L Avital unit, it works great and is easy to install

    excellent product, service and price
    This unit came highly recommended by several people on the auto forum thatI joined after a recent used car purchase. The only negative thing that wasmentioned by all of them, and that I whole-heartedly agree with, is thatthe installation instructions are barely adequate….but if you have theschematic for your car, it can be readily acomplished. Having said that,the unit is quite full-featured and will control a variety of functionsbesides simply locking/unlocking the car, such as engine-disabling andthe like. There are other similar devices that also offer similar featuresbut I was looking for something that would be reliable and long-lived andthe members of the forum spoke from years of experience with this manufacturerand model, so I made a leap of faith and picked it up and so far I am notdisappointed. I also got the unit for half the best price I was able findand received it within a few days, so that was further incentive.

    The remote entry works great, but car wiring may be a nightmare to figure out.
    First of all, the Avital 2101L when connected to the vehicle works GREAT. We just bought a 2007 Malibu that did not have factory keyless entry. So, I ordered this to install. The installation directions are terrible. There is no wiring diagram for your vehicle, so I searched the web for wiring diagrams. I found several wiring diagrams, but not all of them were the same or accurate. A good source is the12volt website. It took me 2 weekends and ordering a resistor to make it work, but it now does and I could not be happier. This project is not for the faint of heart.

    Perfect for my Ford Ranger!! Love the progressive door unlock feature!
    This is awesome!I have a Ford Ranger which doesn’t have power windows/locks…etc. Many years I have been unlocking the truck with the key and it can be a total PITA if it’s raining or one has their hands full. I can deal with manual windows, but keyless entry is almost a must. I found two door actuators in my “stuff” pile and decided I had enough and wanted to tackle putting in a keyless entry. There are MANY sites/forums that help you with wiring. So please don’t let the bunch of wires scare you. For the cost of this unit it was a no brainer to do in my opinion. This is not hard to install.. It will probably take you longer to take apart your vehicle and mount the acutators, run the wires, solder everything and then test…etc..I wanted to use the progressive unlock feature. This means, I push the unlock button once, and it will unlock my driver’s side door. Push the button again within 15 seconds and it will unlock my passenger side door. Since I have a truck and I drive it 99% of the time, I didn’t want the passenger side to unlock everytime.This is how to wire it up accordingly: NOTE. You will need another relay to operate the second door actuator (passenger side)[B+ is the POSITIVE 12v source from the battery]H1/9 violet UNLOCK 87 = B+ Hot at all times (fused)H1/7 violet/blk LOCK 87 = B+ Hot at all times (fused)Hq1/17 brown/blk UNLOCK 87a = GROUNDH1/6 wht/blk LOCK 87a = GROUNDH1/8 blue/blk UNLOCK 30 = DRIVER actuator UNLOCK wireH1/5 grn/blk LOCK 30 = BOTH actuators LOCK wire(s)(obviously you will need the 12v constant,ignition, and ground, not depicted in the above diagram, as it’s self explanatory via the manual)Now you need a relay for the PASSENGER UNLOCK (2nd unlock)30 = PASSENGER actuator UNLOCK wire87a = GROUND87 and 86 = B+ Hot at all times (fused)85 = 2101 H1/2 blue 2nd unlock wire.Hope the above helps as I searched a LOT for the progressive unlock feature and not a lot was coming up.I also ordered a small buzzer so now when I press unlock/lock it sounds of a chirp instead of the horn beeping. I found the horn beeping to be very annoying especially if you are getting into your car often or it’s late at night.For the total cost of under $40 and I now have keyless entry on my truck I couldn’t be happier! Mind you it might be a little more expensive depending on your door actuators and if you need to purchase, wire, relays..etc But if you are tackling this type of project you MOST likely already have the necessary items and supplies to complete the install.In summary:All I wanted was a way to unlock/lock my truck remotely. Avital is a quality brand! Great price. I now have progressive door locks. The unit chirps just as an OEM system would, and my parking lights flash just like OEM. The unit has many options including unlock when you shut the vehicle off (3 seconds) and lock when you turn the vehicle on (3 seconds). I’m ecstatic that I did this and even happier at the convenience of not fumbling with a key anymore.

    Great product! Find instructions elsewhere, or pay an installer.
    I read reviews and watched youtubes, and had the factory wiring diagrams. I still struggled, and if not for another Amazon reviewer’s instructions, might still be baffled. HOWEVER, the seller states that the unit is to be installed only by a professional. They provide lots of information but don’t “connect the dots.” That said, it worked exactly as it should, and if you are armed with enough information, is an easy install. Doors lock and unlock, interior light comes on when I unlock, parking/tail lights blink once on lock, twice on unlock. Still have to finish horn and trunk remote but am sure they’ll work.Note: most cars won’t need additional relays just for lock/unlock. You will need relays for horn, trunk, and if you want the passenger doors to work on two clicks rather than always with the driver’s door.

    Exact replacement for Viper 211HV
    I bought back a car that had a Viper 211HV installed. They lost the FOBs so the alarm was useless. I purchased the DE 2101L in hopes the FOBs would work. They didn’t and I didn’t feel like trying to program them. So I swapped out the unit instead and it works. No issues, alarm works great and back to key-less entry.
