Using a 2-Wire PATS Bypass on a 5-Wire Connector?

Hey all, this might be an easy (dumb) question, but I haven’t done a remote start in about 8 years. I have an old CodeAlarm PC 7300 remote start that I’m thinking about putting in my 2007 Ford Focus. I bought a cheapy PATS bypass off Amazon (BANVIE Universal Immobilizer Transponder Bypass Module), which has an antenna loop for the key cylinder and a Positive/ Negative input. The code alarm has a 5-pin PATS/VATS harness with the following connections: 1. +12v 2. Ground 3. Ignition (+) 4. Starter Motor (+) 5. Active Out (-) I’m assuming that key reading only takes place during cranking, so do you think Module Ground to Ground and Module Positive to Starter Motor (+) would work? If not, please point me in the right direction. Thanks.Mitchell Whitney, Installer/technician

Use the Active Out(-) to activate the bypass. You also need to drive the key-in-sense to +12V so you will need a small relay.

Thanks for the super fast reply! According to multiple wiring charts I’m looking at, the Key Sense is negative (red/black (-) at column harness). Can’t it be directly connected to the active out as is?Mitchell Whitney, Installer/technician

Whoops, sorry about the wrong polarity of key sense. If its negative, then sure, just drive it with active out. Regards
