remote start, 2007 camry

As Chris stated earlier, the LE doesn't have an alarm so keysense just isn't needed....Mike M2

Well boys, it does... (or can) my folks drive one!

My Camry does not have a factory security system, so I guess I do not need to connect keysense. As I said before, thanks a bunch for your comments!Kintosol

Ha I just did a VW Polo 5 door using a different method, only 3 diodes instead of 11, aren't I wonderful?

how did you accomplished it?

Do tell Howie..... do tell !

kintosol, You're welcome, and good luck on this Camry. If you've never dealt with a transponder bypass before, here are your two basic things: 1. Get the remote start to work successfully while you have one of your good keys sitting in the ignition switch (but in the off position). That way, you know the rest of your install is correct already. 2. You'll see that the ring with that 556U is rather large, so it can fit around big key cylinders (some Nissans, for example). For your car, the ring needs to be made smaller (use a small zip tie or a piece of tape), and placed right on the front of the receiver on your car. So, you've got the steering column cover off, right? See that white plastic part around the keyhole, that lights up with the door open? The ring from the 556U has to be made that same size, and sitting right on the "ledge" (flat area) of that clearish-white plastic light-up thingy. Basically, you should be making the ring as small as you can, without having it show after you have the car back together. If it's not just like that, it won't work.

You're welcome, but what do you need diodes for? Your car isn't an XLE, is it? You just need: 556U red to constant power 556U black to chassis ground 556U blue to ground-when-running (DEI calls "status") from remote start. All other 556U wires, don't connect to anything. (I usually just tie the 556U's blue and black wires together, and put them both to the status wire from the remote start..........it still works fine and saves a tiny bit of time.....but you don't really have to do that.)
