LuxLink Wire connection missing..Please help
Hi all,
I have received the LuxLink box (Remote Top/Starter/Alarm/Quarter Windows)which I bought from a CL member who had advertised it on CL website, I recieved it new in its original box and with all parts along with the bill from LuxLink...
I took it to a professional workshop to install it..they agreed to charge me 300 dollars..
However, while installing it they found out that one connector is missing! ! I think they lost it or mybe I lost it!!
I have attached the photos of the missing connection, it is a 6 pin connector along with its wires that must be connected to the main LuxLink unit...
I can arrange a 6 pin connector but I dont know the arrangment of the wires attached to it or what colors! !?
Can anyone please help me by calling and asking LuxLunk company to give a simple diagram of the colors of the wires which are supposed to be connected to the 6 pin connector ...and I will make the connector connectionwires myself.
Or if anyone have the same connector with its wire and can please send me a clear photo, that would helping creating the same.
The reason am asking for the diagram rather than the connection it self...is because it will take time to ship it to me...and the workshop is charging me 30 dollars per day if the car is stand still in their workshop..also I cant drive the car with all wires and rear chairs removed and sheltered everywhere!!! Moreover, it will be expensive for me to call overseas international call, in addition, I think there is a time zone deference. .
I would really appreciat any help, support and prompt reply.
I attached some photos to explain and show exactly which connector am referring to...
Thanks in advance and best regards.

I just bought one from a member here and it's on it's way to me now. If you don't get a pic from someone I will hopefully be able to post one for you by the end of the week when it gets here.

Jerry,
Thank you for the heads up.
I e-mailed the damsel in distress letting him know that connector is not used in the installation process.

Hi all,
Finally it is installed.
It works fine and as advertised.
It took me and the technician some time to test and with your help and Steve, we manage to make it work.
Now it is does the following:-
1- Press Unlock till a peep is heard..Press lock twice then unlock
Result: Engine starts + roof opens + unlocks the doors
2- Press Unlock till a peep is heard..Press lock twice
Result: Engine starts + roof opens + doors sty locked.
3- Press Unlock (without waiting till a peep is heard)..Press lock twice then unlock
Result: roof opens + unlocks the doors. (Engine does not start)
4- Press Unlock (without waiting till a peep is heard)..Press lock twice.
Result: roof opens + doors sty locked. (Engine does not start)
5- Press the driver open window button 3 times (each time you must hear a click for the relay)
Result: rear quarter windows opens or close.
That’s all
Did I miss anything
My question is:-
1- Can I start the engine remotely without opening the roof? If yes how to do it??
Please Note the following:-
You must know which version of LuxLink you are installing..It appears that there are two versions..The only deference is the wires colors.
Thanks to all of you and to Steve for all the help and Support.

Long press unlock (until the windows roll down about 2-3 inches) - Should raise/lower the top
Long press unlock (until the windows roll down about 2-3 inches) then QUICKLY press Lock-Lock - Car should start, then the top goes down (the timing on this is VERY tricky. I know how to do it, and I still miss it probably 1 in 3 tries).
NOTE: If you bought the LuxLink off a fellow CL member, it's possible you got one of the previous releases. Same hardware but, the newest (last) batch of them has slightly updated firmware that fixes a glitch.
In the OLD firmware, if you do the "Remote start and lower the top at the same time", the next time (and ONLY the next time) you remote start the car (unlock-lock-lock), the top will also go down. After that, the remote start (unlock - lock - lock) will just start the car (like it's supposed to), until the next time you do the "Remote start and lower the top at the same time" function.
If you never do the "Remote start and lower the top at the same time" sequence, you'll never have to deal with this glitch. You can remote start with confidence, and you can lower the top remotely with confidence.
Pretty sure that Steve can flash the new firmware into the old hardware, if you want to send your LuxLink to him (but I won't speak for him).
