PLEASE NOTE: This vehicle may be equipped with a IMMOBILIZER passive anti-theft system ( will have GRAY ignition keys). A vehicle specific tranponder bypass module may be available for this vehicle, contact your supplier to find out.If one is not available, please refer to the appropriate security diagram before any remote start installation. The vehicle is equipped with a RAP system that keeps the accessories on after shutdown until a door is opened. You will need to send a ( - ) to the driver's door pin to shut down the accessories at the end of a remote start cycle. This wire is VIOLET ( - ) pin-6 of the C3 connector at the BCM under the driver's side dash. See the BCM graphic for exact pin locations. A second starter wire must now be connected for remote start. This wire is VIOLET/BROWN and requires a ground through a 180-ohm resistor during crank. See the attached diagram for exact wiring instructions.
* The wires at the ignition switch are all small gauge. For 12-volt power, we suggest you run a wire to the positive terminal of the battery. All other wires can be connected normally.
** The 3.3L and 3.8L engines use a multi-coil pack which provides a 2 cylinder output on the BLUE/ORANGE or BLUE/GREEN wire. (see exploded view)
*** This is a 1-wire doorlock system which requires resistors, 5.2-Kohm to lock and 2-Kohm to unlock. For vehicles equipped with factory security, use only the VIOLET/BLUE security wire, as it also controls the doorlocks. Use 2-Kohm to arm/lock and 5.2-Kohm to disarm (double pulse to unlock all doors). See the DOORLOCK diagram for wiring details. A vehicle specific doorlock module may be available for this vehicle, contact your supplier to find out.
**** The Body Control Module is located under the driver's side of the dash on the firewall. For a detailed pin-layout, see the BCM graphic for this vehicle.
***** The output to the domelight is unreliable and can cause false triggering with some after-market alarm systems. For proper monitoring, it is best to use the separate doorpin wires. They are all found at the middle connector on the BCM under the driver's side dash on the firewall. VIOLET - driver's door, VIOLET/WHITE - passenger door, VIOLET/GRAY - left sliding door, VIOLET / YELLOW - right sliding door. For exact pin locations, see the BCM graphic for this vehicle.
****** Located at pin-1 of the middle connector at the BCM. Resistors required, 1.5-Kohm will operate passenger side and a 2.7-Kohm will operate the driver's side. For exact pin locations, see the BCM graphic for this vehicle.
******* Located at pin-6 of the C2 connector (second from top) on the BCM. Resistor required, 4.7-Kohm to open and close tailgate (power tailgates only).
******** The light switch circuit is multiplexed. A Ground through a 5.6K resistor will activate the park lights. A ground through a 1.3K resistor will activate the headlights. See the appropriate TIP diagram.
