PASSKEY & P.A.T.S. BYPASS
The GM PASSKEY 3 AND FORD P.A.T. Antitheft system works with a glass tube called a transponder
located in the ignition key that sends and receives data via a coil on the ignition switch. A module that
controls fuel distribution to the engine receives this information. If the module does not receive a
proper code or no code when starting, it will cut the fuel supply to the engine. Some manufacturers of
aftermarket security offer modules to bypass this security to allow you to add a remote starter. If you
do not have one of these modules available to you, can use the following method.
From pin 87 run a 22 (G). Wire to the key cylinder where you wrap the wire tightly 8 to 9
times around the cylinder, leave approx. 3 inches before wrapping it around one of the
vehicles keys then returning the end of the wire to pin 30. This will introduce the key into
the circuit only wen the remote starter is activated therefore maintaining the integrity of
the security

ENGINE RPM PROGRAMMING
Select Engine Start RPM detection - step 20 in the programming table.
With engine running select step 21 in the programming table, note that the LED is
blinking, indicating that the RPM signal is detected properly, press button 1 on your
remote control to record the idle RPM.
ENGINE RUN DETECTION
There are two modes of engine run detection
RPM - Engine run sensing is accomplished by supplying an RPM signal to the unit and
teaching the “vehicle engine idle RPM”. Engine stalled condition is defined as zero
engine RPM.
Smart Sense — Engine run is determined by measuring the battery voltage and engine noise.
Engine stalled condition is defined if both the battery voltage and engine noise have been
fallen bellow a per-determined threshold.
ENGINE START DETECTION
Engine start is detected only when using the RPM mode, in this mode RPM timing is compared
to pre programmed idle RPM, engine start is defined as 50% of idle RPM. If engine RPM did
not reach that level within 10 seconds, engine cranking will be terminated.
If Smart Sense is selected engine start is controlled by timing only.
DIESEL/GASOLINE MODE
Gasoline mode - Ignition is turned On 5 seconds before start.
