viper 5101 with xk06 on 03 silverado dies

I have searched high and low and maybe I am overlooking something. have installed many remote starts and thought this one would be easy but the 5101 is a little more advanced than others I have done. I have a few issues and after 5 hours, normally 2 to 3, I am trying again tomorrow night. I have received great info before so I am wishing for some help. I am using the XK06 and the diagram says there is a 6 pin green or black plug with a white and RED / white wire and the vehicle has a 2 wire white plug and a 3 wire black plug with a RED / white. I usually use a dball and am tempted to cut my losses and use the dball instead of the XK06 since the harnesses aren't like the instructions for the XK06 and I don't want to cut wires if the wire colors and pins don't match. I believe the XK06 only bypasses for remote start so do I need to go through the door for keyless or can I find the lock unlock wires without resistors and diodes? If so I am using the dball and cutting my losses. Will the dball control the locks if I use it instead of the XK06? Normally there are two thicker red wires on the dei remote starts and the 5101 is different. Which wires need constant 12v on the 03 Silverado diesel? I believe I got it out of manual mode and I hear the clicks but ignition doesn't even get voltage when I remote start? I know the smaller red needs 12v but which of the thicker gauge wires need 12v on this vehicle? Thank you for your time and help in advance Adam Tish

The XKO6 is only for transponder override ,if you want to controll the door locks you have to use a combo module like DBALL or the XKO9 . That vehicle should be a pretty straight forward install.triniforever

If you get an ADS-DL or ADS-ALCA from idatalink (way more reliable IMO than any DEI bypass anyway), it will cover immobilizer bypass and door locks, factory alarm control and tach thru the module and it does it thru the data wire at the OBD-II connector.    You just need to have someone flash it for you if you don't have an idatalink account.

I agree with shortcircuit I myself use idatalink 99 percent of the time and yes they are way more reliable that deitriniforever

I am going to tackle it again now so the X kayo 6 diagram for that vehicle shows to 6 pin connectors at the steering column for the bypass it seems like I have a 2 wire in a 3 wire plug I am going to start using I data link it sounds like everyone prefers them over the Dball Thank you for your help I will update with what was the issue

This vehicle uses Passlock II which is Type "D" on the install guide for the XK06

Ok so I got it to start with a du fferent remote start but dies, security light since the bypass wouldnt program. Got the light off but cant get the bypass to program like the instructions for type d. Type d does seem like the wires are correct. Black yellow and RED / white. Ready to use a dball since the lt blue and white wont work or test for the locks. If I dont use the dball how would I do the doorlocks? Thank you so much for the help. I will be up all night until I get it working. I will update.

How are you programming the bypass unit? Also, where did you connect tach? Or are you using virtual tach?

well I am not going to hook up door locks on this truck without a bypass so I am going to use the dball and I hold the button plug in the d2d wire org then red and when I put the key in the ignition and turn it the dball just flashes red instead of going to green. Used D2D and connected the purple / YELLOW to the purple of the diagnostic plug like most of them I have done. I am using a plain key not the one with the plastic, I don't think that matters on passlock 2 but thought I would state it. I am using virtual tach/ should I use the tach wire in the truck? I got it to start but when I put it in timer mode for the glowplugs it wont start, seems like it needs a longer crank or something. I thought with the familiar rs and bypass I would be in the clear but the dball wont program and flashes constantly. I flashed it again and it says it has gm4 for the dball. I am starting to feel defeated but I don't want to give up. Truck is getting picked up in the morning. Thanks again for your help. I ditched the pk06 since it doesn't do the locks.

I would use tach and program it. You can find it right behind the instrument cluster. It's a white wire, really easy to get to. No need to go to a fuel injector. I thought Silverado only had gasoline engines don't they? You shouldn't need the diesel delay. I correct myself, as I write this I noticed in the wiring diagram a mention of a wait to start wire. In that case, I would definitely program a tach signal to it. And of course, the wait to start connection if you haven't already. yes, to program it, you would press and hold the button on the DB-ALL, plug in the power D2D cable (after all other connections are made of course), once the LED turns orange, release the button and the LED turns red. Then just start the truck with the key. LED should turn green, then shut off. Before programming, I would close and then open the driver's door to wake up the BCM in case it went to sleep. 401.GM4 v1.09 is the correct firmware for that vehicle.
