Thread: Auto start or security system

I am curious on this as well..........

I have viper.. Wired the remote start up my self but had the alarm part wired at a shop

i have an autopage rs 727 2-way cost me 100$ and installed myself was easy as pie.....tip: if you have a starter kill relay in your alarm here is a super cost effective way of bypassing the passlock III in the igntion system. Go to ace and get your key copied. Take apart your steering column trim. Place the original (passlock key) key near where the key goes in and now try your copied key with no chip in it. IT WORKS the car thinks the passlock key is in the igntion all the time now so just tape that key to the spot on the steering column and make sure it works and put the column trim back on and you'll never know its there. Dont worry about the pass lock being disabled as you already have a starter kill relay so the igntion is disabled when the car is locked any how.

i have had this alarm for 2 years its an amazing unit for a great price and my cheap passlock setup has worked without fail for 2 years also

Something about taping your key in the steering column just doesn't sit right with me. A theft is going to tear into that steering column and see that key sitting there and then he's going to think to himself "Jackpot". I bought a 20.00 bypass to out on my remote start/Alarm system, so my Pass-Key III still works and there is no hidden key in my steering column.

I just started to install mine on a 2001 Grand Prix GTP and the only trouble i'm having is trying to find a rearm wire for the factory alarm system. I have looked at more pages of wiring diagrams then all the Harry Potter books combined, and none of them have a rearm wire labeled. I went to my local GM Dealer and all they could say is "Geeee, I don't Know" But what did I expect coming from a small redneck town. I can't even figure out the doors and windows, and it's already took a huge dump of snow on us. So i'm waiting till it warms up before finishing the rest but at least my alarm/remote start work and I can start my car from a mile a way which came in handy yesterday when I had to go to super wal-mart in a blizzard, I started my car all the way from the back of the store that's convenience!
