VT Commodores easy to break into?

[FstStig]

Hey Guys,

Was just wondering if this was true.
If u hit the roof on the passenger side door, and central locking opens, u pull the mud guard on passenger side off and there's the central locking cords there.

Not sure if this is true or not.

Cheers

Sounds like urban myths to me.

The roof thing was a fault on series1 VS's, and there was a total factory recall. I thought it was complete bullshit until my mate showed me, the roof ended up getting a few dents from over-enthusiastic people haha. The point of it was that in a roll over accident the doors would unlock, but it has been recertified.

Never heard of the second, but would be very doubtful.

lol ok thanks guys, can someone who use to have a VT clarify this? My mate still thinks it is true.

tell him to go to a car yard at night and try it to fully support his claims

I stripped a full vt wiring harness out a while ago.

The central locking,speakers, power mirror and power window wiring goes from just below the kick panel, up INSIDE the car behind the kick panel and strait through the door jam into the door...

never leaves the cabin, the only wires that go into the guard are side indicators and power antenna wires...

Hope this helps

lol ... or just ask the cops when they come if the ex cop cars did it ... lol

"Sorry officer, I was curious if a myth I read about on the net was true... I wasn't trying to break into it though..."

lol I'll be joining the VT team as of Friday, and will say goodbye to the VS team.

^^ What he said, there are no wires behind the mudflaps... they are all inside the car.

all of these things are simply myths, for example the hitting the roof over the passenger side did work on VS models until the recall like tom_1569 said.
the passenger side mud guard and wheel arch removed just shows the top end of your suspesion, wiring to your secondary horn and headlights and the wiring if you have power antenna. no central locking wires are there.

make sure the metal things for your immobilizer connect to the metal part of your key, the whole rotation. it needs to be connecting from (i think or just before) accessories to as far as the key possibly turns, if it looses connectivity at all the car wont start.

happened to me, mine must have moved when my barrel got stuck, after 2 hours of rattling my keys i got it to turn, but since then it didnt always start, turned out that those metal parts had moved, so i just needed to move them back, works all the time now
