I am installing a Audiovox APS996 in my 99 Blazer. I have the door locks hooked up and working and the system is seeing the tach wire. The system tries to start the engine (turns over and begins to start and then shuts down right away) but it will not run. I thought that the Audiovox bypass/security system may not be working so I tryed to remote start the vehical with the Chevy key in the ignition and even in the run position and it will not start. What am I missing ??. Thanks for the help. Keith

Make sure that these wires are all powered.

Also make sure that the bypass unit is correctly installed. One more thing to look for is the starter wire. If you put it on a relay for the anti grind feature make sure the R>S wire is connected on the starter side of the relay. Also check and make sure that you have a solid ground connection. Good luck.

Make sure that you have interfaced the passlock security system on the vehicle - from the sounds of it, this is what your problem is - Here is all the vehicle info you should need to check what you've done

Notes:
NOTE: This vehicle has the passlock II immobilizer system that, when adding a remote start, must be interfaced with. Use DEI part 555t or 555L. *1 The BCM is located to the right of the accelerator pedal below the radio. The plugs on the BCM face towards the drivers side. *2 Use tan for the drivers door located in pin B4 of the purple plug, orange for the passenger door located in pin B2 of the purple plug, and dk. blue/white for the rear doors and rear hatch located in pin B11 of the lt. blue plug, must diode isolate these wires. *3 The PCM is located on the passenger fender. On the 2.2L the wire is in a black 80 pin plug pin 10, and on the 4.3L the wire is in a red 32 pin plug pin 20. *4 This wire will not test when using the headlight switch. This wire is triggered by the DRL system. To meter the wire, start the car with the parking brake set, when the brake is released this wire will go to ground. *5 Also found in the brown plug at the BCM on vehicles with a factory alarm.
