Just to clairify too, to install a remote starter (no alarm) with the remote door locks on a 2004 Automatic Chevy Coloado, other than the PLJX, I won't need any diodes or relays, right?

Thanks, Mike

Hello guys, I installed a remote starter on my 2004 Chevrolet Colorado last night.  After hours and hours of install, it will not remotely start my truck.

When I try to remote start it remotely, the remote starter will start to flash the parking lights and you can hear the ticking in the remote starter, however, it does not actually turn over or start the vehicle.  When started regularly, the truck runs and starts fine.

I’ve come to think that it might be one of two things, either the ignition is wired wrong, or the bypass unit (PLJX) is acting up.  I’m leaning towards the ignition is screwed up, because it does the same thing if the key is in the ignition or not.

I’ll do a quick run through of my ignition wiring.

 -Starter wire from remote starter went to the violet wire on the PLJX
 -Ignition wire from remote starter went to the dk. blue wire in pin B8 in the BCM in the gray plug, as well as to the pink wire in the PLJX
 -Acc wire from remote starter went to the brown wire in pin B7 in the BCM in the gray plug.
 -I split the WHITE/ blue wire coming from the key switch to the Data Key Side and the Data ECM Side on the PLJX

Does anything have to be connected to the starter wire in the PCM?

The wire I did not use from the remote starter are as follows:

 -Green – 5th Relay
 -Yellow – Glow Plug Input
 -Purple – External Trigger Input
 -Orange – Aux 2 Input
 -WHITE/ Orange – Starter Kill Output
 -Blue/White – Aux 1 Output
 -WHITE/ Green – Disarm 
 -WHITE/ Brown – Rearm
 -Blue – Aux 3 Output

I also wired the door locks, they work fine.

Does anyone know what might be wrong?

Thank you,

Mike
