Vehicle Make: Chevrolet
Vehicle Model: Silverado
Vehicle Year: 1999
5.3L V8, Regular Cab, Auto Trans, Power Windows, Power Locks.
I have read all of the posts for "Silverado" and I have come to the understandingthat I must use a Passlock II bypass module. I know that the DEI-555LW shouldwork for this truck. I also understand that the 456G or 457G may work as welland that the 555 would require me to splice into the yellow passlock resistor wireand that the 456 or 457 would only connect to the OBD2 connector. (not requiring me to splice into anything.)
My question is will the 456/7 do more for this vehicle than just Passlock II bypass?Or can they operate the power windows/locks/lights/other......?
I am asking about DEI because they seem to be the most recommended on this siteand I am planning on using a Viper RS system.
If you know of another company that can do more with a less invasive means like the 456/7please let me know.
Thanks
Curtis

you have to use a module that cuts the yellow wire to bypass the PSII during remote start. It is not hard to do and the wires will be along with the ignition harness anyway where you need to be for other connections. The manual that comes with the 555 will tell you the colors to look for in your particular year vehicle and the 2 you need (one gets cut, another gets tapped into) will be next to each other. The 457 connects to the obd2 connector for the doorlocks and other wires are for door triggers and makes installation alot easier then using all kinds of relays, resistors and diodes. Basically you will need both modules unless someone sells one that does everything in one. There may be something like that around but I only deal with DEI and for now you need both, one to bypass the passlock, one to operate doorlocks. Hope I helped

Also no matter who you by the module(s) from they all need to be (invasive) as you say, all remote/security installs are invasive, thats why I get paid so much to install them. Also neither of those modules do windows, you need an additional module for that too and yes, it requires cutting of wires and is quite "invasive", but very easy to install. I would love if someone invented a magic module that did everything for me but as vehicles electrical systems get more complex, and everyone wants a billion options and add ons, it is always going to require skill and some sweat as well as alot of time to install. Best of luck I will check back if you need any other help ,I will try my best.

One more thing, you mentioned that the 456 or 457 connect to the obd2 plug and does not require splicing into anything. That is not true. Nothing on the module plugs into the obd2, you need to splice into a wire at the back of it it. Every single connection and module on the RS system is going to require splicing and occasionally cutting (like the passlock yellow and the starter interupt.) The only things that plug in are the valet/overide switch, led, antenna and shock sensor. And to do the led and valet switch professionally it should require drilling, and to properly secure the siren is more drilling. If you are going to tackle a remote start be prepared for hours of splicing and cutting. The good news is that your vehicle is not one really that tough and the main reason is because of those modules.

Thank you for your reply.
As far as the work goes, I have no problem with it...Work in an industrial enviroment where ALL of the wires are one color and 1/2are not marked. So tracing down wires is not a problem. Kinda looking forwardto jumping into this system.
As far as a no splicing bypass kit.I didnt know that the 456/7 were not bypass kits. I cant seem to find ANY infoon DEI 's modules but it sounds like I may windup using them all.
Am I right about this module:http://www.bypasskit.com/product.aspx?prodid=PLDATA&catid=3I believe that is does not requre splicing.Was wondering if there is one that will work the windows/locks/lights too.
Kinda like this but for my truck:http://www.bypasskit.com/Manuals/XK01_AMDL%20%20D17_I_EN.PDFThat being if my truck supports it.....???

Don't misunderstand.I have already purchased a DEI-555LW and plan to use it.But if I can find a more robust module then I am willing to go that route.As per my above post, it seems that there are modules that can do this.I think it is just more of a question of whether my truck supports it.
Thanks....

Interesting modules. seems these do more functions then the dei modules and perhaps will cut down on install time and cutting of some wires. since I only deal with DEI products i can not verify with any accuracy the quality of those modules or the reputation of the manufacturers.

But regardless you will still need to tap into many wires to do a remote start in your truck with all the features you want and assure at least the starter wire will need to be cut if you wish to utilize the kill. Of course the company that makes those modules might understate what needs to be done but once again I am not sure, I am only familier with DEI and have no problems with it.

I admire that you wish to attempt this yourself as most people would be afraid. I have done installs on semis and boats where all the wires were unmarked and the same colors. However since I am an experience installer I can do almost anything without a diagram. But I always try to get one to cut down on install time and learn any "tricks" that may apply to a certain vehicle. I suggest you ask someone to post the wiring diagram for a remote start install for your vehicle here, it will make things go alot quicker and possibly prevent you form seriously damaging any electronic components or systems.

The main thing is to only use a digital multimeter when probing wires and do not connect to anything until you verify and are 100% positive what it is for. Even with a diagram there is still chance for error. But as I said before your truck is not too difficult, at least for someone with experience and the modules really are a time saver.

did a little more detective work, appears dei does make a combo module, part #457gw however this will be a waste since the doorlocks on your year truck will not work thru and obd2. I don't carry this part  and was unaware it was available so I learned something new today. what this means is use the 555 to bypass the passlock or find out if those other ones can do it easier but I doubt it. You will also need to do the doorlocks the old fashioned way which is a light blue and white wires, positive trigger at the bcm. You will also need to do the door triggers, rear, light flash , windows etc. the old fashioned way. Thats what I found so it will be a bit more of a challenge but still not too bad. You will need to diode isolate the door trigers but its not that difficult. best of luck.

I see...
For now it will be pretty simple. I bought a "crappy" bulldog security RS from wally world a few years back.(before I realised I needed to bypass the Passlock system.Going to get the system going on it. ALL it will do is startthe truck (I hope.) But I cant see sticking to it for long.I am a Options man. The more options the better.Problem is I am also a Do It Myself man too.I cant see paying someone to do something I am perfectlycapable of doing myself (with a little help.)
The 555 should be here in a week or so. (ebay)
Thanks Again.

i would use the PLJX... thats what i use and i'm a DEI dealer... the nice thing about it is that you dont have to CUT the passlock wires only tap onto them....   that way if the module craps out you dont effect the integrity of the OEM passlock circuit....
