2014 Soul keyless entry expirence
OK. I finally got my keyless entry installed. It took about 1.5 hours for my 2014 Soul base and about 20 minutes for my wife's 2014 Soul base.
First I purchased two of the Bighawks keyless entry systems from Ebay. $30.00 for both, including shipping.
I wanted to keep is simple, so I altered the wiring so the only connections I had were Lock, Unlock, Power, Ground, and 2 wires for parking lights. All other unused wires were removed from the plug of the keyless entry.
The blue, yellow/black and black wires from the keyless entry unit were tied together. I plugged this connector into the black box and I was ready to begin wiring into the car.
I removed the fuse panel and the plastic panel from under the steering wheel. I mounted the black box under the dash using plastic wire zip ties. The below picture shows the wires in the car that I attached into.
The 2 purple wires for the parking lights from the keyless entry system attached to the Green/black and the Brown/black wires on the large white plug in the picture above.
The red wire for constant 12v power from the keyless entry system attached to the yellow wire on the large grey plug in the picture above.
The black wire for ground from the keyless entry system attached to the screw to the left in the picture above.
The yellow unlock wire from the keyless entry system attached to the yellow/black wire on the small white plug in the picture above.
The brown lock wire from the keyless entry system attached to the red wire on the small white plug in the picture above.
That’s it. Six wire connections and I have keyless entry for $15.00 and it functions flawlessly.
I hope this helps others who have been looking for information regarding 2014 Kia Soul base aftermarket keyless entry installation.
