RE: Jetta Central Locking System and Car Alarms

[Patrick Sherman <psherman@bigfoot.com>]

Yeah we were going to do the Pulse but alpine and VW recommened against it. 
Because it sends the pulse to all windows. So if three are up, and one is 
down, the 3 up get the pulse so it could put bad wear on the motors. So we 
directly went to the modules, and Alpine, Clifford, and VW Techs told us 
how to tap into the window device that stops when everything is closed. 
When I arm the car it will roll up any windows that are not up and close 
the sunroof, lock all doors, and arm the system. Now with the system armed 
or disarmed, I am able to use my third channel to roll down the windows, 
since I wanted to the car still kind a secure I opted to keep the doors 
locked and system armed when they go down, but if the system is disarmed it 
just rolls down the windows and system is still off and doors unlocked. The 
longer I hold the 3rd channel button the farther they roll down, so I can 
crack them or roll them all the way down. My second channel pops the trunk, 
since VW said not remove the factory alarm, just the siren, I have to 
Disarm first then pop the trunk, or the factory alarm goes off, if I just 
hit the trunk pop. I am switching to the Alpine SEA-8081 Alarm AiNet. I am 
adding electronic Hood Release, and some other new ideas..
