Hey all,

   A friend and I just installed a RS/alarm system in his truck.  Everything seems to work fine, but the remote start is being a pain.  We hear the fuel pump, the truck starts, but then it dies within a second or so.  The remote (one of those LCD ones) tells us it is running, the lights (DRL's) are on, teh dash is on, but the truck has died.

make sure that all of your ignitions and well as accesories are powered up.

98 Chev C/K Pickups have Passlock II. In the upper left or right of the instrument cluster, is there the word "security" in amber. It'll be there when you turn the key on, and it'll be flashing if it is not bypassed during remote start. If so.... then you will need a DEI 555L or any of the other Passlock bypass modules out there.

so if it has the passlock II, would it still start at all or just turn over.  Cause this will start for a second and then die right away

ITS PROBABLY THE PASSLOCK DUDE.
YOU MIGHT CHECK YOUR TACH SENSE TOO.

CHECK THE DASH THOUGH, IF IT SAYS SECURITY WHEN YOU TURN ON THE KEY THEN YOU HAVE PASSLOCK

I have this wiring diagram for the passlock II, but just wondering if any one knows the size of the resistor or diode needed on the two relays

Use a bypass module.... they work just plain better.

If funds are tight and you wish to do this yourself you may do the following at a very minimal costs to your pocket book.

1. Start the vehicle with the key.

2. Locate the 3 small thin black, white, yellow wires which are grouped together in the ignition switch.

3. Cut the Yellow wire in half

4. Splice open the black wire but do not cut it.

5. Using your DMM set to measure resistance (ohms) attach one lead to the black wire, and the other to the yellow wire on the key side.

6. Measure the resistive value once, and then reverse the leads and measure it again.

7. Take the average of both readings to obtain the correct resistive value.

8. Wire the resistor to the relay diagram you have on hand.

so if I use a bypass module, I don't need to mess with the different relays, resistor, and diode?

If you have money to burn, then yes. It will also prove to be very simple to wire and install, and will reduce likely mistakes, or failures.

But . . . If the above method which has been used 9999 years before these modules ever existed, will do the exact same thing at fraction of the costs.

This assumes you have one good working brain, common sense, and installation skills to be accurate and thorough.
