Factory Theft Deterrent Systems
Many newer vehicles are factory-equipped with
anti-theft systems that disable the fuel system
unless a properly coded key is inserted into the
ignition cylinder. In these vehicles, first deter-
mine the type of anti-theft system, then install
the proper bypass module.
General Motors Anti-theft Systems:
Many late-model GM vehicles are equipped with
one of three basic anti-theft systems; Passkey,
Passlock, and Passkey 3. Standard Passkey
systems are easily identified by the resistor chip
visible on the shaft of the key. Passlock systems
use a normal key, but feature an ignition cylinder
that generates a resistance code when the key is
turned to start the vehicle. To properly interface
into these systems and retain full functionality of
the factory anti-theft system, a VATS/PASSLOCK
bypass module must be installed.
The Passkey 3 system, which is found on GM
vehicles 1999 and newer, is a transponder based
system described below.
Passive Transponder Systems:
Passive transponder systems (commonly found
on late model Ford, Honda, Chrysler, Toyota,
Nissan and other vehicles) feature a tiny passive
transmitter housed in the base of the key. This
passive device activates when placed close to the
vehicle's ignition switch, sending a signal that
enables the vehicle's fuel delivery system. If the
transponder key is not detected, the starter
will crank but the fuel system will be disabled,
not allowing the vehicle to run. To properly
interface these systems, a transponder
bypass module must be installed. These
modules allow full functionality of the factory
anti-theft system and may require the use of a
spare key.
