3. Diesel Vehicles
For the most relible starting, hook up the RED/BLACK wire referenced in
section 20.
For difficult starting diesels connect and learn the tach (section 12) as well as
the wait-to-start RED/BLACK wire (section 20). Set Option #6 (section 24)
for diesel.
For most diesel vehicles, you can start the vehicle without needing to hook up
a tach wire. The following table provides the mandatory option settings for
“no-tach” operation in diesel vehicles. (Use the Chrysler settings for all
other diesel vehicles.)

4. Factory Anti-Theft Systems
Many vehicles come with an anti-theft system that must be temporarily
bypassed for the vehicle to be remotely started. Some systems use a resistor
in the key. Others use a transponder – a small device in the key that
communicates a high security code to the vehicle before the vehicle will
successfully start.
Check the list of vehicles and the types of security systems that follows. If
your vehicle is listed, your vehicle has an Anti-Theft System that the remote
starter MUST temporarily bypass in order to start the vehicle. More information
about the factory anti-theft systems and vehicle wire colors can be found at
the DesignTech Web page www.designtech-intl.com.
This remote car starter has a built-in bypass system for transponder anti-theft
systems (including PassKey 3, and P.A.T.S. anti-theft systems). If your vehicle
has a transponder anti-theft system, follow the instructions on the next page
to allow the remote car starter to temporarily bypass the anti-theft system
when remotely starting the vehicle.
If your vehicle has a different type of factory anti-theft system (non-
transponder), DesignTech has developed a Universal Alarm Bypass Module
sold under model #20402, #27402, or #29402. This module will temporarily
bypass the factory anti-theft system when using the remote starter. Check
with your local retailer/installer to purchase this Universal Alarm Bypass
Module or contact DesignTech directly by visiting www.designtech-intl.com
or calling 1-800-337-4468. The Universal Alarm Bypass Module is $39.95.
If you don't want to give up a key for the bypass, DesignTech has also has
vehicle-specific anti-theft bypass modules and door lock modules.
Please
call 1-800-337-4468 for more information.
