Ok so i installed this thing on my own. I do HVAC by trade so im already pretty accustomed to wiring. Im a lot more familiar with car audio than with car alarms.
I have 3 questions.
1. How the hell do i hook up the parking lights? I have the white and white with brown and i cant figure how to hook it up. Which seems funny to me that I hook up this entire alarm with relays and all and i cant figure out how to get the parking lights hooked up. lulz I read where "if you have a multiplex." Idk if i have multiplex. lol
2. Well i have an issue with remote start. It starts and dies immediately. And i cant see what fault its throwing cause the parking lights arent hooked up.
3. My truck is utility body and i wanted the shock sensor to go off if someone messes with the back of the truck and no matter how sensitive i go it wont go off. Right now i have it zipped to steel. I guess ima try to zip it to some wires? So itll move easier?
Cause now i can open doors, get in the back the truck and it wont go fof. Itll basically only go off if i kick the front tire pretty hard.
Should it be attached to steel or to some wires? Also if that doesnt work are there like more sensitive shock sensors i can get? Cause the back doors on my truck have no sensors and i need them protected too.
Oh and 1 more in the wrong section for the heck of it. I have a kenwood dpx500bt in the same truck and it will drop the left speaker for a couple seconds and then come back. Just throw that out and see if anyone knows that here.

Notes: Can use the 1700G or 457GW to bypass the Passlock II, but it will not control the door locks on this model year.

Passlock II
Part #: GMBP
Alternate Part1 #: PLJX
Alternate Part2 #: 556LW

Alternate Part4 #: DesignTech 20402
Alternate Part5 #: DesignTech 29402
Notes: Standard on all models. The Passlock II wire colors are yellow, tan, and ORANGE / white (not used).
You only need the white parking light wire, WHITE/ brown is for when you have to cut the parking light wire and keep power from going towards the switch/control.
Are you using a bypass? How are you addressing the Passlock II? Is the tachometer hooked up? Have you learned the tach?

There is a small door on the top of the brain. Inside of it should be a fuse that needs to be installed according the how the parking light output. Either (-) or (+). It has to match which wire you have connected to. You should be using the H1/5 White.
What bypass are you using?
When all else fails, Read the Instructions

Ref. above by-pass or tach issue.
Shock sensor won't help.
You need a single or dual zone proximity detector mounted in the rear.
Door pins to the rear or is this a pickup?
If so again the prox but mounted in a waterproofed plastic enclosure.

Um no bypass. I know my year says its sposed to but its a base model work van. Even when i did the stereo i was told i needed a lil door chime deal and when i got the head unit out all those extra wires i paid $80 for werent even back there.
If there as issue with bypass it would still crank? But again when i had the keys copied they said there was no chip.
No tach wire. did the virtual tach thing. Ive set it and reset it multiple times. But since i got no parking lights i got no fault code.
Its a box truck with a utility back. So tool doors on the side. How does proxy sensor hook up?
For the parking light i was only using the white wire. Going to brown white. Set up for +. So then i need to set it to -? Idk if i was mistaken but i thought i tested that and it threw +.

Make sure that on plug H3 the red, RED / white and RED / black all go to a 12v+ constant source.
Have you connect green and purple on H3 to the starter wire the right way round, cut starter wire, green to key side and purple to motor side?
Soldered joints?
Forget prox, you need to mount pin switches in the door returns.

Yea. The starer wire i have butt connectors. And theyre the right way. Most of it is soldered but i still have a couple that arent soldered cause i wanted to make sure everything works first.
It cranks and starts it just shuts down right after it starts.
Man pin switches? lol I have 7 doors back there. I was trying to avoid all that wiring. I just want it to go off if someone moves the back of the truck around.
Would a proxy sensor plug into the same place as the shock sensor? Would i remove the shock sensor or have both?
Oh And im not sure cause it will only crank start and shut down. But im getting radio and a/c on remote start but the fan doesnt actually blow.
Do i wire the accessory orange to both of the vehicle accessories? Or can i set this pink/black wire to accessory 2 and hook it up to the vehicles accessory 2?

Does your door chime work when you leave the lights on and/or the key in the ignition and open the door?
Yes, the vehicle will crank. Passkey II is not a chipped/transponder key system. It's a classic VATS/Passkey I system with the resistor integrated into the ignition rather than on the key itself. You'll likely notice a security light on the dash during bulb self-test. If the Passkey II isn't bypassed and you don't use a legitimate key in the ignition but just hotwire it, the engine will start and then shutoff.
If the vehicle doesn't stay running until the remote start shuts it off then it will not learn the virtual tach.
If you want to have the alarm protecting the utility doors then you need to put a door pin or other switch on those doors.
If your going to use the BROWN / white wire then change the polarity of the parking light wire as indicated in the manual (or in an above post). It goes without saying test before making connections, wrong assumptions is the easiest way to let the magic smoke out and getting that stuff back in is a b*tch.
Howie, the vehicle cranks/turns-over.

Pin switches are the only reliable answer. Yes I've done a full size Winnie so knuckle down and away you go. Otherwise you'd need a prox in each box. Very expensive and unreliable.

Word.
Yea the door chime works.
Naw i was using the white wire on teh alarm and was going to the BROWN / white wire on the truck. The WHITE/ brown wire on the alarm i had unused.
How much is a bypass and what one should i get? I mean idk if i will i had bought this to put in my personal truck and it sat in my house a couple months then i ended up getting a work truck and putting it in there. I really only need the alarm and keyless entry but i figure if remote start is on there I may as well use it. But if its too involved ill probably say fudge it. More importantly i need to wire up pin switches on all these doors.
How does that go down? Since i have you here. Do all the pin switches just get wired together with door pins or would i have to wire them somewhere else?
The side doors have a sliding lock with a pad lock on them to lock all 3 doors on each side. which i plan to add heavy duty actuators at a later date. But for now the back door,its a double door. Is there an after market part/actuator kit for those to be lockable? Or do i just get actuators and custom make myself a bracket for them? Was figuring 2 actuators, 1 top and 1 bottom and make myself up some sorta bracket and pin. Ive not been able to find any sorta kit like that. Just curious if such a thing exists or i just gotta make some stuff up?
