2005 cadillac srx rwd and avital 4000

I'm pretty sure it's a bad module, I've tried everything and nothing makes any difference. I did get the remote start to work with the key in the ignition, but it starts and dies immediately??hmm. I did not hook up the tach wire yet, so I was going to get into the RS and set it to voltage sense. follow the directions and the rs led won't even light up to get into the programming menu, WTH! any ideas?

things have gotten better, i went in and wired up the tach wire to complete the installation part. tried to program to the tach, and once again, no light on the avital. went through the steps anyway, tested the remote start with the key in, and it works YEEHAW!!! Led must be broke on module. I still do however have the problem with the XK01 staying solid, if anyone has any helpful information on that, I would appreciate it. Even if just to confirm that the unit is bad.

At this point, if you aren't going to reflash the XK01, just get a GMDL-BP.C Renner's Auto Electronix

I liked the XK01 due to the window roll up feature, upon locking the doors. Will the GMDL-BP do that?

forgot to add that I have no way to reflash the xk. I'm going to try to find a shop in the area that might have the capabilities to do so though. Thanks for all your help Chris

Well, I finally got the module replaced, it was definately bad. works ok now, the remote start that is, but the window rollups are not working at all. when i lock the unit, it takes about 2 seconds and then the doors lock, but no action from the windows. It says on the install sheet that it takes 2 pushes of the lock button. i tried that, but it just locks then unlocks. Could this be a problem with the RS not sending 2 pulses or something? any help would be appreciated. thanks

Yeah that would do it...Avital 4000 has a remote with the same button for lock and unlock, correct? Assuming that the tailgate unlocks like the other doors, you could use the aux. output on the "lock" input to the XK01 and press that after locking to roll up the windows.C Renner's Auto Electronix

Yes, it does and I was already looking for a different RS that would have seperate lock/unlock. that is an awesome idea and I appreciate your help once again!! Does the +/- output on the trunk key make any differance?

What are you talking about "+/- output on the trunk key"?C Renner's Auto Electronix

sorry about that, i see how that would sound vague. I was assuming that the door locks were a negative signal to lock, but wasn't sure if the aux 2 output would be the same?
