On this model you should have four wires on each front door motor, these are known as master servo's as they control each other and have no additional control unit.

The same system was fitted to all fords at the time and the rear doors and tail gates where applicable had three wires and would only be controled by the masters.

The cabby obviously only has the two motors as there are only two doors and the boot isnt wired for security purposes.

The trigger is worked of a negative pulse to the yellow wire and the white wire on either motor, one is unlock and one is lock, however I cant quite remember which way round it is!!

If you do get them the wrong way round then it will just unlock when you want it to lock, and lock when you want it to unlock, no big deal, just swap your wires around the other way.

Just a tip, I would patch your wires into the loom where they come into the car behind the A pillar. This way it saves you running wires into the door and your connections will not be so exposed to moisture.

Good luck.
