Default clifford concept 50, valet switch

Does anyone have one fitted to there car or know abit about them?

My problem is the three wires on the back of the switch have broken off and I am not 100% sure were they go on the switch pins, I can resolder the wires back on if i knew which goes where, the wire colours are red, white and black.
I have tried the local car radio shops but nobody has them anymore.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks.

Have you looked on the clifford website for an installation manual?

yes but it only has the manual i got with the alarm which shows you how to use it and the only other wiring diagram i could find shows the wires going to the switch but not the pins the should go to.

Rikky- thanks for that mate, I will try them tomorrow.

Boro- I have to pay for that download so i may try that last. Thanks for your help

CSE- I think that may well be the only way to sort it and no they don't sell the switches anymore with the loom attached, i can buy the switch but i then have the same problem.

Thanks all, i have it sorted now.
If anyone else needs it, the wire connections at the switch are:

RED = latch side of switch.
WHITE = Centre pin.
BLACK = spring loaded side of switch.

There is another way of doing this with no switch, press clifford clifford then either boot release button or the other one next to it ( was on my old car so i cant quite remember ) sends it into vallet mode till you re arm the car, if its not boot release button it silences the alarm when arming so just do it again to re enable audio chirp
