No, the vehicle bulb test wire required for the passlock 1 bypass.

The bulb test wire in your car is the small black wire in one of the plugs going into your ignition switch. There are twoo small black wires in one plug and one in the other plug. This lone black wire is the bulb test wire. It will go to ground during crank.

yes, it is in the black 5 way connector....the one on the top. It has your constant power wire in that plug.
