with this

http://www.caraudio-caralarms.com/bypass-module.html

i'm not trying to get a whole new alarm or remotes. If this doesn't work, what are my options side from a whole new system?

 

might work but which function would you replace outta the stock remote?

 

yeah i donno - none hopefully ,but i guess it would need a button huh. I haven't used panic ever so probably that??

 

alright, sounds good, but do you have a key for the bypass module. If so, you're in luck. It just piggybacks off your existing system. I would say use your panic button.

 

Key? I'm very new to this. Like an extra car key?

 

If you have a 98 or 99 with the imobilizer, you will need a chipped key to install into your alarm, or no worky

 

i have a 98. Doesn't that second link take care of that?

 

im almost sure that what that bypass thing does is let you put the key in a remote location and it will transmit the signal from inside the key to the receiver of the immobilizer so that you dont have to leave the key in the ignition. one way or another the immobilizer needs to have the singal from the key.

 

hey mach....give me your info i install these at work...ill let you know tomorrow night with everything you need to buy and total down to cent price you will pay...at a best buy that is....haha ill get you everything you will need

 

This will not work because the main security unit needs to support remote start feature. Stock unit does not support this feature, so answer is negative.

 

PM'ed

 

Hey i have a question too, how can i length the time that my autostart initiates the starter for, so now its like 1 second i need like 2 or 2.5

 

you live in cali what in the world do you need this for....if i remember correctly it depends on your unit...if its viper you can and also avital you can...it has something to do with programming and the relays from the "brain" to the starter

 

I never got anything from you?

 

soooo u know it can be done, but cant tell me how.. lol..

Oh i have autostart on my car so i can turn the A/C on before i get into the car, u guyz use it for snow, i use it for 100degree weather..

i have a viper btw..

 

haha just don't turn it on when popo are around. its illegal for manuals to have a auto engine start.

 

popo can lick my balls..

i love seeing the expressions on pples face when they hear a car turn on and no ones in it

 

I guess i'll put this back up top since its getting cold again. What is this chipped key? I have extra keys but never noticed a chip.

 

I never opened that second link I don't think that imobilizer bypass should work for that

 

If you have a 98/99, there's a chip in the back part of the key. Which alarm system are you using? DEI has a Bypass Module that bypasses the OEM immobilizer. This should allow you to integrate the remote starter without leaving the key in the ignition. I think the DEI model number was 555I.
Just shoot your alarm manufacturer an email and ask them which device is compatible to bypass the immobilizer.

 

Yup just use the DEI 555 to bypass the immobilizer. Check with the distributor on the correct bypass model.

I can't remember if there was an extra channel you can use for that particular starter. Maybe you could used your trunk channel instead.

Do you find your remote range satisfactory from where you want to start your car? I remember I installed an extra range remote from DEI and I could start the car from a football field away. It was awesome.

 

Found this information too.

looks like you start it by hitting the unlock button on my current remote 2/3 times (programable)

Nakamichi - I have a call into them right now asking these same very questions, but your saying this DEI Valet 561T with the correct bypass module (http://www.caraudio-caralarms.com/bypass-module.html) would work on the factory system? I'm in a condo, so my alarm currently reaches far enough for me. Do you have a link to that extended range remote though?

and by the way, are you up in NoVA?

 

I never used/installed that model. After looking at the wiring diagram, you might as well just replace the OEM alarm and get a full blown after market alarm. It's not much more wires.

The extended range was a feature of a after market alarm. It has an remote antenna from the alarm "brain" and a 2-way remote. Similar to the following Viper 5900. There was a post a few months back asking if the OEM alarm antenna could have been extended, but not sure what concluded from that.

Yup, near the mixing bowl.

 

I cant remember where I saw it, but Im sure I saw an aftermarket remote starter with its own 1 button remote, just for the starter, I cant remember if it came with its own stand-alone antenna, but the dedicated remote might help on its own
