What type R/S unit are you using?

Your car has the PassLock II immobilizer on it. What bypass are you using?

The car does not use a Start wire from the R/S unit. Instead the engine starts cranking after it sees IGN and ACC go positive 12v and then ACC drops to 0 v. This timing is critical and some R/S units don't bring up IGN and ACC exactly together.

Did you use a Passlock bypass module? I am pretty sure you have the PassLock II immobilizer.

Check the ignition cylinder for a group of 3 wires. They are usually White or RED / White, Yellow, and Black or ORANGE / Black.

Your ProStart will directly interface any of the major 3 manufacturers, DEI, Fortin or ADS iDatalink. The bypass is required to make the car think there is a key in the ignition during R/S. My preferrence would be the ADS TBSL-PL module.

Here is another site for wiring info: https://www.bulldogsecurity.com/bdnew/vehiclewiringdiagrams.asp

+12 volt constant 2 RED / White wires at ignition switch / steering column

IGN1 Pink at ignition switch

ACC1 Orange at ignition switch

ACC2 Brown at ignition switch

Keysense Light Green at BCM - Gray 24 pin plug or at ignition switch ( must use )

Passlock wires can also be found at BCM in 16 pin Gray Plug ( plug on left side, closest to steering wheel ) Yellow and ORANGE / Black.

If you use GRW to control both the bypass and Keysense, diode isolate each connection.

BCM is below radio, remove bezel.

You could be in short or long tamper mode. Go to the DEI web site: https://www.bypasskit.com/product.aspx?productid=41 and download the 556L install manual. Page 6 explains PassLock II troubleshooting.

I don't believe you will need the delay relays that are mentioned on the Bulldog site. You R/S should work OK without them.

car wont start with key or wont remote start?

if it doesnt start with the key, its time to check all wires at the ignition cylinder if they are loose.

if the car cranks duing rs but doesnt start, it can be a bypass issue OR an ignition wire isnt being powered.

where abouts in ontario ?
