I think the switch on the actuator is for the features you find on other cars. Hold the key down and all doors lock. Unlock with key and hold unlocks all. Probably would do windows up/down too. Not something I wanted to wire up. Hand crank windows.
I had enough trouble trying to source a signal for the dash switch lights. I finally gave up and they only flash when the actuators do for a half second.
I had no wiring to the doors for locks.
When I first mounted the 'other' type of actuators, I had to cut out some plastic in the locks to get the mechanism in. That bit of plastic was the switch holder, so I've had no way to attempt any trickery there. Then, I burned out those by triggering them too long.
My first attempt was a big mistake all round.
One other note. The cheap controller remotes wear out eventually. I purchased a whole new controller to get new remotes. Now, I use a cloning remote and keep the original safe at home. I have replaced the cloning remote about every three years.
