FragiLe VaTS TUBe HarneSS
The wires inside the VATS tube harness are extremely fragile, it is strongly
recommended to connect to the wires located on the other side of the VATS
connector (under the dash) as they are much sturdier and will improve
installation reliability.
VaTS TamPer mOde
On vehicles equipped with the VATS system, a Tamper Mode can occur due
to an open circuit or insuffi cient voltage on the VATS wire. To exit Tamper
Mode, repair the failure and wait 3 minutes. The vehicle should then be
ready to start using a valid key.
HOw TO TeST THe PaSSLOCK i wire
The Passlock wire’s voltage can vary according to the ignition’s position.
Although a small variation can occur when using a voltmeter, the Passlock
wire should refl ect the following results:
• With the ignition OFF, the wire tests ±0 VDC
• With the ignition ON, the wire tests in a range from ±1.2VDC to ±4.7 VDC
• Upon start, the wire tests ±5 VDC
wHaT iS THe BULBTeST wire
Unique to Passlock I systems, the Bulbtest wire is used to trigger a Cluster
Circuit Check and the Passlock validation time window. The Bulbtest wire
requires a ground (-) signal during the vehicle crank cycle. If this signal
would be missing, a Passlock failure would occur without locking the
vehicle in tamper mode.
warning!
A second (+) ignition is required to be powered on all Passlock I equipped
vehicles. The second ignition is usually a White, Green or Pink/White wire
found in the main ignition harness. Make sure this wire is powered as a
second ignition during remote start.
PaSSLOCK 1 TamPer mOde
The Passlock I system is equipped with an antitheft countdown. When a
failure to provide the vehicle with a valid Passlock value occurs, the vehicle
will enter in Tamper Mode. Depending on various criteria, the vehicle BCM
will evaluate the security breach and decide to enter either “Regular” or
“Bad” Tamper Mode.
• To exit Tamper Mode, repair the failure in question.
• During the following steps, make sure the battery is fully charged (it is
recommend to apply e-brake to turn off DRL on Canadian vehicles).
• Turn the vehicle ignition ON, move the key to the START position and
bring it back to the ON position before the car started.
• Leave the key to the ON position. The security indicator will start
blinking.
• After 10 minutes, the security indicator will stop blinking, turn ON solid,
then turn OFF.
• Turn the vehicle ignition to the OFF position, wait 15 seconds and then
attempt to start the vehicle.
• If the vehicle starts, wait for the security indicator to turn OFF before you
turn off the engine. If the vehicle fails to start, keep the ignition ON, YOU
ARE IN “BAD” Tamper mode and may have to repeat the entire sequence
up to 3 times which may take over 30 minutes. There’s no solution to get
the vehicle out of Tamper Mode faster then waiting the required delays in
each cycles.
