i cant get my door poppers to work they dont pull the latch while the door is closed but when its open it pulls it all the way I thought maybe it was the way i mounted them.

hey bro i had that problem once the first time i did doors just ajust the cable from the solonoid to the latch..if it isnt tight enough it will only poull it when there is no presure on it while the door is open if its to tight it also binds up..there is a sweet spot i guess.. as far as the popers look for a little black plug in the dor jam pop it out and put the popper there that way you dont have to drill holes hope this helps bro

make sure you run a ground wire straight to the solenoid, Dont rely on the door hinges as a ground. Ive seen that happen before.

it seems like the solenoid lacks power because you tap the latch down a little and opens yall think i might need a new latch or stronger solenoids? im going to keep looking for the sweetspot.

figured it out thanks bros i put the ground wire to the battery and got and messed around with it (plus zip lock tide the top of the solenoid so the cable could not pull the solenoid of the sweet spot and it worked. thanks a lot
