I have recently tried to installa ProStart remote starter, but my 99 toyoya corolla is equiped with a immobilizer (ie. it wont start unless i press a certain existing button) Is there a way to bypass it. I have looked at the bypass modules, but it is only good for the pass lock and VATS not an immobilizer. Any ideas?

This immobilizer has been added to the vehicle, it was not stock. You will have to find the wires that the immoblizer is tied into and remove them. The Prostart unit has a optional starter disable relay for it that can be wired in in place of the immobilizer.

Thanks, but is there a way to bypass it, because the immobilizer reduces my insurance payments. Its easy to stop it by just unplugging it but i would like to bypass it if i can, if not ill take it out and use the realy that i can buy for it.

This will depend on if it is a multiple point or single point immobilizer. If it is a single point then chances are that it is a starter wire system, thus the starter wire output from the remote start brain needs to be on the vehicle side of this cut starter wire. If this is a multiple point immobilizer then you will have no choice but to remove it and use a starter disable relay with the remote start (should also qualify as a insurance discount as it does the exact same thing without a button). ------------- Top Secret, I can tell you but then my wife will kill me.

On one of the alarm harnesses that has the starter wires on it, it has a 2nd ignition relay wire, what exactly is it for?And secondly, in the 99 Corolla wiring diagram there is a IGNITION 2 wire, do i connect this to the 2nd ignition wire on the alarm harness? Thanks for n e help

If the 2nd IGN wire is a (-) trigger then this is for the relay. If it's a (+) output, then connect directly to the 2nd IGN wire on the car.

Yes. There are two ignition wires for that car. If the wire you are refering to is one of the 6 large wires in the main harness (usually green) that is for the second ignition. That wire is usually selectable through the use of a jumper pin on the back of the module as a 2nd ign., acc., or starter wire. If it has the small jumper, put it in the middle position (default for a new unit)

i have just installed a Prostart Remote starter and im having some issues with it. I can set it into ready mode, but cannot remote start it when it shuts down. Also for some reason now everytime i press the brake pedal the doors lock instead of only doin it once like it was before. Any suggestions?

The unit will have a model#, by the sounds of it, it may be a CT3300. Disconnect the power lock / unlock wires for now. Does the vehicle have a transponder in the key?

No there is no transponder in the key, and yes the tach did learn ok, so im lost for the moment why it wont start, let alone get the lights to blink like its running the start procedure.

Did you wire both ignition lines and if you did make sure the jumper on the brain is set to 2nd ignition. Meter the start output and ensure that it is giving +12v during the crank cycle. I take it this is a manual trans. vehicle as you said ready mode? Meaning you have programmed the remote and shut the vehicle off using the key?

Yeah i did wire the 2 ignition wires, but i dont know which is the primary and the secondary, does it matter? Yes its manual, and the jumper is set right. the i can get the car in ready mode and then turn off the car while it runs and shut down the engine by the remote. I hope I wasnt confusing

Meter the start line from the brain, is it putting out +12v when you go to remote start the vehicle? It should not matter about the two ignition lines as long as both see +12v. Does the unit give you any number of light flashes when it tries to start?

Ok, i have more problems. No the doors lock every time i hit the brakes when the positive door output is wired and it doesnt when the negative door output is wired, i dont know where to test the light, if i test it at the light ita 12V open and 0V off, but it i test it late on the wires, it test 0V open and closed, so theres one problem. Now the 2nd problem is that the remote start wont work, it goes into idle mode and will turn off with the remote, but it wont start or even go into the start-up mode. its a Pro Start Remote Starter CT-3360 (at least thats what it has on the sticker) So any ideas?

1st problem is that it's a ProStart , second problem is that we need to know the make, model and year of the vehicle that your working with. Third, when you reference " + door output " and " - door output " what are you talking about ? Not to sound rude or anything, but most systems have a (-) door lock/unlock output containing two wires ( one for each function ) and also a separate (-) door trigger input and (+) door trigger input. From the sounds of things, you need to find what type of system you have in your vehicle and then choose the proper wire off the ProStart unit. ------------- Jeff

Sorry i forgot to give the make, its a 99 Toyota Corolla, and the + and - wires are for the door triggers, you only use one of the 2 depends on which set up ur car uses, and the rest of the wires are all connected properly.
