DEI Remote Start install 08 Camry Push Start

Hi everyone. I installed my Viper 5501 into a 94 Lexus in the past which didn't require any bypass modules, so putting this into my 08 Camry Push to start is going to be a little re-learning I imagine but it looks like it should be pretty straight forward. My first question is does anyone know of an bypass module that I can use with a Viper 5501 remote start which will allow take over of the vehicle without shutting down the engine when a door opens? My wife's Nissan has push to start also (I didn't install this unit) but her's allows her to get in and drive without it shutting down when a door opens as long as she unlocks the doors with the door handle button first.

no bypass module from the big 3 offer takeover. Unfortunately that's the nature of the vehicle, and how the OEM remote start would work as well. Only select nissan,lexus and its counterpart vehicles have takeover available. Most PTS vehicles now will shutdown upon opening.Ted

Would relay interrupting the driver door trigger during RS get around this? Oh the bloody complications with PTS.

Unfortunately Howie the shut down is required because of the way the BCM interprets the remote start condition vs the normal (pts) key operation. For security reasons as well as safety reasons the door pin monitoring should not be bypassed unless the manufacturers suggest doing so.To master and control electricity is perfection. *evil laugh*

OK, thanks.

Thanks for the replies. So do you guys think this is pretty much how it's going to be for this model of Camry or is there any hope of firmware down the road from any manufacturers that could do it?

Ok, So here is the install guide for my 5501 remote starter: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B82c-bcI84jlc05xcG9RQ0NIclU/view?usp=sharing And here is the DBALL2 instructions for my vehicle, I'm going off of the page 11 instructions "Installation Type 3b (with T-Harness TLTH1)": https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B82c-bcI84jlenB5MXM3dk5LRVk/view?usp=sharing Couple of questions.... *Need advise on which wire from the remote starter would be the "(+)Ignition Output" to hook up to the DBALL2 "(+)Ignition Status Output". *For parking light polarity, I see the fuse jumper inside the remote starter is currently set to (+) polarity for my old Lexus ES, that has to be moved over to (-) polarity, correct? And then H1/11 (white) connects to Pin 18 on the vehicle harness? (Refer to pages 20 & 36 I believe) *From what I can tell I shouldn't need to wire any relays anywhere in this installation, is this correct? *Does anything need to be set on the remote starter for it to begin talking to the DBALL2 over D2D? Wondering since it was a standalone direct wire unit with no bypass module on it's last install.

H3/1 Pink is your Ignition output to the DB-ALL Even though it is not listed in the DB-ALL guide, you will probably have to connect the H3/5 Red to a constant 12 volt source, as this is the input for the H3/1 ignition wire output. Looks to be correct on the parking light polarity and wiring.When all else fails, Read the Instructions

You can have takeover if you want. However, this would make the OEM keyless entry, and the OEM Smart Key features, inoperative during remote starting. So, when the remote starter is on, you'd have to use the aftermarket remote to unlock the door. Go to fortin.ca and put in the car, and then look at the different installation guides/methods available.

Thanks for the replies, much appreciated.
