Some of the wiring directions I have access to say, some of the ignition and the starter wires are smaller gauge at the ignition harness I look at the ignition harness right at the key cylinder and there are 8 wires coming out of it and all are thicker gauge can anyone help me out

You are looking for your normal GM truck thicker wires.. Nothing out of the ordinary.

I have already installed the audiovox ax901 on this vehicle, but I can't get it to remote start plus the airbag light is on, i connected ignition 1 to pink, ignition 2 to white, and accessory 1 to orange, I also have had accessory 2 to brown, but the thing still doesn't start I used the 456G that works perfect, for bypass I used the 555L I wired passlock ground to black on the ignition switch, I cut the yellow wire in half, and connected properly, as I have done lots of these at work, I started the car with key to let the bypass program, turned it off after about 10 seconds (is this the proper way of doing this?) when I go to remote start the vehicle it tries to start and basically starts but then immediately it dies can someone help

Did you get the right tach wire? Try properly grounding your passlock ground rather than wiring it to another wire.

You are using the wrong ground for the 555L. It should be ORANGE / black not black on an Avalanche....

The Passlock system is not getting the proper resistance from the 555L module. Ensure that the ground out when running wire is receiving a (-) pulse from the RS unit & that your ground on the RS unit is solid to a clean & paint free surface on the vehicle.

a 457G would solve all your problems PLUS turn on his heated seats etc... i did 2 05 C/Ks yesterday and used the 457G, but i'm pretty sure the ORANGE / black passlock ground was there.....also, the wires are all thicker even tho some wiring programs say to look for smaller gauge wires....

yah I got all wires hooked up properly, I am just trying to find the ground when running output from the alarm brain (the proper one) or how I could wire this

grab a meter and meter them till you find the one that is sending out a negative during RS and drops it when the unit is shut down.... quite simple really....

Sorry, you are right there is no ORANGE / black anymore in the Avalanche, just looked it up on the DEI website.They switched the ground wire to black in 2004. Are you sure you have the right yellow and the right black. I know some Tahoes have more than one yellow in the harness, did the security light come on when you cut it? Remove the shroud and Trace the three passlock wiresfrom the top of the key cylinder to make sure. They should be yellow, black and RED / white(not used)....

Just to help clarify a little. 555L wires, Red to red 12v, pink to ign. pink, yellow to switch side yellow, yellow black to car side yellow, Blue/black to neg output when remote started(i know on a Pursuit Avox it's lt. blue). I'd double check all this. Also, nothing on BLACK/ white and voilet, right? ------------- Mike M2
