IPPME module install

1.  How do I hook up the "negative ground out from remote starter" (Brown wire) if my remote start unit does not have a "ground when running output"? All I have are Pulsed ground before start, Pulsed ground after start, Pulsed ground after shutdown, Ground output during start( crank).

2.  If my remote start unit has a 2nd ignition output, what do I do with the Pink 16ga wire?

My vehicle is a 2002 Silverado

Use the Ground output during start( crank).Make sure that this wire has (-) current throughout the remote starte sequence.

The 2 nd ignition wire on the RS unit is to control a relay that will energize the WHITE wire on the truck. You need to hook up a relay in this configuration in order for that wire to work with the WHITE one on the truck:

• 87 & 85 : Fused 12 volts constant
• 86 : Ground out when running wire
• 30 : To WHITE wire on truck
• 87a : NOT USED

The PINK wire is your primary ignition wire that you need to hook up to the IGNITION wire on the RS unit.

I installed my Prestige APS-685 in my 2002 silverado today but I cant get it to work.  It will get the signal and turn on the lights and engage the starter for a few seconds and then stop, and after about fifteen seconds it tries again automaticly. I have my tach wire hooked up behind my instrument cluster. I also tried connecting it to one of the coils.  My owners manual says that the tach rate has to be programmed.  I went through the sequence as in the manual and the unit responded like it accepted the signal by flashing the lights, but when I try to start the vehicle it just turns over sounds like it wants to start and then shuts off.  The remote starter has a diagnostics setting and it tells me that there is a low or no tach signal.   I did not hook up the wire for my IPPME that is supposed to go to the second ignition output because according to the directions if your remote start unit has a second ignition output you dont have to.  (Could this be the problem why it tries to start but will not)?   I hooked up the brown  wire from my IPPME to the "ground when cranking" output so I don't know if this is part of the problem either(shouldn't that wire have to be grunded the entire time the vehicle runs by the remote start module)?  After trying to start the pickup by remote I can't even start it with my key for a while then it will start right up.  Does anyone have any ideas?

Use this TEST :

Take the BROWN  wire from the IPPME module and temporarily ground this wire to the frame of the truck with alligator clips or whatever. Now try to start the truck with the remote control after you have programmed the tach.

Found a wire for you !! It's LIGHT BLUE Wire: Ignition 3 / Shock Disable Output. This is the ground out when running wire for transponder bypass use.

Jeff, your right!! that wire should do the trick.  Something else I am looking at is the direcions I received with my IPPME module shows a blue looped wire on the side of the module. The directions say cut the loop for Passlock 1 but doesn't say anything about Passlock2. In another set of directions I got from bypasskit.com doesn't show a blue wire but has this connection labeled Programming jumper.It also has each side of the connecter labeled Passlock1 position and Passlock 2 position.  Should I have a jumper for Passlock 2 ?  If so where can I get one because it didn't come with my module?

Jeff,  my module does not have a loop wire(or at least it didn't come with one).  Do I need to have a wire there?

 I went into past forums and found one between 2000 Blazer and you.  2000 Blazer talkes about the key sense wire, I didn't do anything with this wire.  If I need to hook it up, where do I have to hook it to?

Jeff, there is no jumper, I don't know if I was shorted the jumper when they shipped me the module or what. I guess that's what I kneed to know. All there is is a four pin connecter on the side of the IPPME module along with the long flat one with 7 pins in it and the 2 pin "power connector" I would call it.  I have no way of knowing if it is set for Passlock 1 or Passlock 2.  I can't see why in the directions it would say Passlock 1 and Passlock 2 position with the arrows pointing to the 4 pin connector because there isn't and switch to set it to Passlock 1 or Passlock 2. Do I need a jumper wire that I don't have for Passlock 2?
