1996 Buick Riviera SC

I just installed a Python 1400XP Remote starter,and purchased a Self learning Passlock Bypass,for Passlock 1 Passlock 2 and VATS. By Peripheral Electronics model # PPLJX They have since replaced this with model# PPLXR.

The remote starter works wit the key in the ignition,only in the ON position,however i can not get the bypass module to respond. It has power and the LED lights up. The VATS signal wires, White and white. but only 1 of the wires will allow me to connect to, the other disables the whole system altogether.

Wiring instructions Link: https://peripheralelectronics.com/periph_products/Instructions/PPLXR.pdf

The only wires i connected were:

Brown: after programming.

Green: Key sense

Blue: VATS signal wire

Pink: Ignition

Red: 12v constant

because it says for VATS,and separates the others as Passlock 1 or 2 only.

Thanks for any help!

posted_image did u program it to vats its default setting is passlock 2 for ions need to go to step 1 to chane it to vats

then program your resistor code after you have changed it .

since i have the older model PPLJX it has a jumper setting to select between VATS and passlock.

for some reason i have done a few there is connector that plugs the vats together you will see it tap your wires on the computer side of that connector not the keyside.

I think i know what your talking about, the 2 white wires go into a big distribution block/plug an go from double white ,to WHITE/ black and PURPLE / black. as far as the other conections go did i hook up everything necessary?

I could not get the bypass module to work...so i just used basic resistors..but come to find out i didnt have enough power to power up the vats module,and computer..so i had to use the other 12v constant they supplied as a back up if needed,now everything works.
