Welcome Aboard!

I also have wondered that. It is possible that the hinge portion that goes into the door may push on something. I see you have asked Chad Williams the same thing. I looked at his video again to see if I could find your answer, but could not.

I can say that you have access to the circuit via the center button switch above the rear view mirror. Not sure if that will work for you, but I thought I'd mention it.

EDIT: After reading a few other posts, it may be part of the door lock mechanism. It is possible that it is both a door ajar sensor and the dome light switch as well as the locking mechanism.

Don't forget to introduce yourself and your Cruze here.

Keep in mind that the Cruze is a highly computerized car. The door switch in the door latch talks to the BCM. The BCM runs the dome light. It's not like older cars where the door switch runs the dome light directly. I'd be leery about installing 90's era alarm systems into the Cruze.

That is all true, but he still could use the output from the dome light turning on to do something. If you use relays and whatnot to isolate the system, it could work.

I'm sure it could be done, but it probably would take modifying the installation. It might be better to look for an alarm that's designed to deal with the newest cars.

All right, I found wire code is White-Yellow for door open and close but touch screen system etc wont turn off the power when I make a switch for test like open the door, because my smart 4G car alarm joined start button and clutch switch for functions control from cellphone App, because when cellphone control stop engine and then touch screen wont shutdown until open the door cause touch screen system shutdown itself, how find other wire, yes switch in the lock latch, will check remote control lock door receiver hide on windscreen near mirror.
