2007 silverado new body, remote start

XK01 bypass module. the only thing ive noticed with them is that probably 2 out of 10 times the stupid things dont work right out of the box. whenever i have a problem with one i replace it with another and it works right off the batt. other than that its straight forward on the rest of the install.

We use the Idatalink unit and it is an easy install with it. Some units just do Passlock and need relays and resistors for the Start and Accessory wires. Others like the Idatalink units will have all the outputs for the ignition switch built right into the module making it a very easy install.Mike M2

How much more dinero are those anyway? i've been curious but just havnt tried one yet.

if you are going with the a DEI alarm, personally, i would go with the DEI bypass 1701G i think is the model#. and pay close attention to wire polarity if you do the install light flash is usually negative on newer chevys and i would suggest that you hide the brain behind the instrument cluster, its easy to pull with just a 7mm nut driver and maybe an 8mm too but this will make sure no thief can find it

as far as wiring diagram i can tell you from memory that the 1701G bypass should take care or most of the wires (locks,doorpin,maybe tach if you want to use it but i never do) parking lights i cant remember the wire color but it is negative and tests easily from the light switch. you should constant 12v directly from the battery with a 15A inline fuse. the wires you need for the bypass are usually included with the bypass instructions but it will control just about everything through the purple wire at the OBD2 data plug directly under the drivers side dash. on a side note the only thing about the bypass that routinely did not work was the doorpin output but you can just wire the alarm doorpin input to the wires coming from the domelight

The 1701g will NOT give you the igntion outputs, you need to wire up relays and resistors...Mike M2

yeah i guess this is true but id just rather do that part myself that way i know it is right. i hate it when too many functions are dont through the bypass because thats just more things that can go wrong if the bypass goes bad. just my .02
