If the S2000 has door optics like an S+, then you can make a harness like this. Plug one end in the door optic and the other to the cabinet optic. I'd make it about 3 ft. long though...

The harness like stayouttadabunker
did not work on my S-2000s. I think they are the same optics but are wired different from the S+. I had to use a set of optics taped together with about 3 feet of wire with the right connectors on each end.

You'll see the twist when you enlarge the picture I took...The orange/blue wire goes from the square-side on the door connector to the V-side on the cabinet connector. Hope this helps...
