There should be a yellow and a black wire comming from the ignition colomn. Put the key in the ignition and start the vehicle and let it run. Then cut the yellow wire. At this point the security light should come on. If it doesn't then you cut the wrong yellow wire. If it does then test the key side of that yellow wire to the black wire. You will need to strip back that black wire. What you're testing for is resistance in ohms. Whatever reading you get is what you have to put in the car. Once you have found a resistor for this, tie those resistances into the car side of that yellow wire and tap the other side in the black wire. you have no successfully by-passed the Pass Lock system
You'll have to get a tuner to disable it through the computer. If your talking with a remote start, you can bypass it with a "passlock" which can be found at car alarm shops
Yes, I have had one in my 2001 for 6 yrs now that I nstalled myself and it has worked like a champ. However, you have to buy the passlock bypass to make the car think the coded key is in it.
You can use any brand of remote start, but the key is that you will need a bypass module since this particular model has Passlock II (which is GM's anti-theft solution). Most all the wires you need to get to are located in the ignition harness (with the possible exception of the tach wire).
There is no kill switch. It's passlock, a passive security system that works with your radio, ignition, and dashboard. There is a procedure to bypass passlock, but it's complicated. To get your car started, just leave the ignition on for 10 minuites and the security light will go out, and you can start your car. If you've recently changed a radio, dashboard, or installed a remote starter, you probably affected passlock.
Most modern vehicles have some type of passive anti-theft system. The systems vary from vehicle manufacturer to manufacturer but most work in the same way. GM used to use resistance based anti-theft systems activated by either a resistor in the blade of a key (VATS), or a resistor in the ignition switch (passlock or passlock II). Most other manufacturers use a transponder based system. A transponder is essentially a small chip in the plastic head of the key that the vehicle has to see in order to start. A bypass module simulates whatever the vehicle needs to see, but only when remote starting. This allows the factory system to remain completely intact and still allows you to add a remote starting system to the vehicle.
Any key bypass system intended for that vehicle. It must be properly installed with remote start system brain.
The thing that causes the PASSLOCK to activate is the chip, if you will. If the chip is bad, ar is unrecognizable to the system, the PASSLOCK will activate. Take it to a dealer asap. You can bypass the passlock by accessing the ignition, and cutting the yellow wire of a small 3 piece wire set that's on top of the ignition. cut the yellow small wire from ign. switch in the column up by the switch. this is the passlock wire.
Your car needs a bypass. All GMs from the mid-nineties up have what they call a passlock system. The only way to get around that is a bypass, if your getting a directed electronics bypass, then its most likely going to be the XK01. On older cars in the early nineties, all they need is a certan resistance, but if your key doesnt have a little black piece below the key head, you WILL need a bypass. Well if this car is a newer Sunfire then it may have a chip in the key which requires a certain resistance on the immobilizer wire. If this resistance is not seen by the car then the car shuts down the fuel pump. If this is not a year with a chip in the key then it may be the fact that the remote starter is not seeing tach anymore or that one of the ignition wires that was wired up is not connected as well anymore
your key has a chip that keeps it running in order to install button start it needs to bypass this so its deffinitly an ignition problem your key has a chip that keeps it running in order to install button start it needs to bypass this so its deffinitly an ignition problem
The security is keeping it from starting which is what it is supposed to do.
There is an immobilizer bypass unit (specific to your vehicle type) that must be wired to the remote start's brain and components of car. You must use one of your keys for this unit, so if you like having the number of keys you currently have you need to get another key programmed to your car (go to dealer), PRIOR to installing immobilizer bypass.
cut the yellow small wire from ign. switch in the column up by the switch. this is the passlock wire. but will it start iwas told that it wouldnt
