You need a PLJX or similer bypass, you do have passlock on your vehicle.Shaughn Murley

Agreed on the Passlock - '05 only Cobalt had the unconventional late model Passlock which requires the PLJX or equivalent to bypass it for remote start. '06 and up switched to the hybrid Passkey3+ with a fixed resistance value in the ignition switch.C Renner's Auto Electronix

So what version security SHOULD I have?. So I can look deeper cause I cannot or do not see the wires for it. Aslo if I do find the security wires it doesn't explain how the car starts with no starter wire present??

Went to the dealer today and they ran my vin # and it is confirmed NO PASSLOCK/PASSKEY3/ Or any security in my key or car lol. Confirmed today at the dealer !!!! So back to square one. STARTER WIRE !!???

If you've got an '05 Cobalt without Passlock, you'll be the first I've heard of...I'm the sort of weirdo who enjoys reading technical literature and ALLDATA, DirectWire, Scytek Companion, and Bypasskit make no mention whatsoever of any '05 Cobalt being manufactured without Passlock. But I'll give you the benefit of the doubt to some extent. If it's true that your car has no Passlock and no starter wire, it should crank when the yellow ignition wire has voltage and the brown accessory wire doesn't (this happens when the key's in the crank position). Your car has computer controlled engine cranking like all the newer GMs. Where do you have your ignition and accessory outputs from your RS connected to as of right now? Also, I'm going to kick the Passlock horse again. If you haven't read this post on immobilizers, it describes how Passlock is a.) not a system which uses special keys b.) not limited to the upper trim levels of any model c.) not related to whether or not the car has an alarm. d.) combined with the lack of a conventional starter wire on the '03-'07 Ion, '05 Cobalt/Pursuit, '04-'07 Colorado/Canyon, and '05-'07 H3. If you went to the dealer and asked them "Does my car have a key with a chip in it?" they were being completely honest and correct in telling you it doesn't. Are the wires to your ignition switch something other than orange, yellow, brown, white, and WHITE/ black?C Renner's Auto Electronix
