Significant Technical Input Registered SVX
Incidentally, I have already tested the theory in my own car. I don't have the security module -- just the connector. Using an amp meter, I shorted the two corresponding wires (14 and 15) to ground. The doors unlocked and locked as expected. The current draw was only 54mA. So obviously pins 5 and 8 on the DLT are low-current inputs, and the module has relays that drive the actuators.

I'm confident that this method will work in any USDM model. The question remains whether a similarly easy trick is possible in JDMs.

Is anyone aware of any JDMs that do not have lock actuators in both doors? Do all JDM years have some sort of keyless entry (either infrared or RF)?
