well, according to the really bad copies I made from your Bentley...

pin 2 is grounded full time, and the front door switch sends 12v from
the battery (fuse 19) to either one of pin 1 or 3 - but never both.

when this signal is present, the pump should run for a specified time
interval, in opposite directions depending on which one is energized.

sucking locks the doors, blowing unlocks them.

I just thought of something else we all forgot to scavenge from Marc's
wrecked 4kq... oops!

uh oh, that spark might have been the pixie dust getting out.  all
complex electrical devices run on an internal supply of pixie dust...
