C.
Hold down the Lock button on the transmitter until the red LED and the
dash lights come on again for a second. The module has now learned
the transmitter code. Release hold on the transmitter button.
D.
To learn additional transmitters (up to 3 more), immediately (within 5
seconds) push the Lock button on another transmitter for a few seconds
until the red LED and the dash lights come on for a second again.
E.
Wait 5 seconds after the last time the transmitter was pushed to exit the
code-learning stage. (The LED, ignition and accessories flash on 4 times).
Note : Teaching the module a new transmitter code will erase all previous
codes - so all transmitters must be tought. You have only 5 seconds
between transmitters to begin teaching a new transmitter.

Alarms:
DesignTech makes a special module called the Universal Alarm Bypass
Module (model #20401). This module will allow one to bypass any of the
new alarm systems on the market -- VATS, PASSLOCK, PASSLOCK 2,
SATURN, and the TRANSPONDER types. You can order this module
from your dealer or directly from DesignTech. If you do not have this
module, you can still bypass these systems as described here:
VATS system (for GM cars with special PASS key).
If you have a GM vehicle with a factory anti-theft system (a resistor in the key),
you need to follow these directions below. However for a few 1995+ GM ve-
hicles (Buick Skylark, Chevrolet Cavalier, Oldsmobile Achiva and the Pontiac
Sunfire) you must get Tech Tip #8113 from DesignTech.
Measure the resistance of the key. It should be between 392 ohms and 11,800
ohms. To do this, put the ohm meter probes on each side of the key pellet.
This value should be close to one of the following (all values in ohms): 392,
523, 681, 887, 1.13K, 1.47K, 1.87K, 3.01K, 3.74K, 4.75K, 6.04K, 7.5K, 9.53K,
11.8K. Purchase a resistor with a value within 5% of this measured value and
a 30 amp BOSCH type relay. (or purchase DesignTech Alarm Bypass Module
part number 20401)
Locate the pair of VATS wires (sometimes White/Black striped and Purple/
Black striped) running behind the dash from the passenger side to the driver's
side behind the key switch. Connect our Ignition 3 (White/Black) wire to pin
86 and +12V to pin 85 on the relay. Cut ONE of the VATS wires and connect
the key-switch side to NC pin 87A, and the other side (Engine Side) to com-
mon pin 30. Connect the other VATS wire to NO pin 87 with the selected
resistor soldered in line as shown here:
Some of the newer GM vehicles have a slight variation on the wiring for the
VATS system. On these cars, there is an ORANGE wire (actually a vinyl
sleeve) that contains smaller wires. This is located underneath the steering
column next to the YELLOW sleeve that is labeled "Air bag wiring". Slit the
ORANGE sleeve open to expose two pairs of wires which are either both
white, OR both yellow, OR both black.
Note : When installing a VATS bypass system, the WHITE/BLACK IGN3 wire
must only go to the VATS relay. If you need IGN3 in the car, simply supply
power to the IGN3 wire of the vehicle by jumping power from the GREEN
IGN2 wire. (Thus GREEN will be powering up 2 wires behind the key).
For GM Vehicles with the Pass Lock System: 1995+ Chevrolet Cavalier
Z24, Pontiac Sunfire GT and 1996+ Pontiac Sunfires and Grand Am, Olds
Achieva, Buick Skylark and Chevrolet Cavalier; order Fax on Demand
document # 8113 to work around this system

Diesel Vehicles:
If possible, hook up the RED/BLACK wire from Step 9 to ensure the best
possible starting. This wire can be very hard to hook up but is not required.
You must set the following options for diesel vehicles. (Use the Chrysler set-
tings for all other diesel vehicles.)

The transmitter button functions as follows if all features are hooked up:
Button 1: Once - Lock doors/arm alarm
Again - Unlock doors/disarm alarm
Hold for 2 seconds - PANIC (horn and lights)
Button 2: Once - Start the car with all accessories left on
Again- Stop the car
Button 3: Once - Turn on the headlights for 30 seconds
Again - Turn off the headlights
Hold for 2 seconds - pop the trunk
The LED on the transmitter will display 3 different colors - Green for Button #1,
Red for Button #2, and Yellow for Button #3. The unit is powered by a long life
lithium battery. The transmitter and AutoCommand
and DOC approved.
Important Note:
Make sure that all drivers who will be operating the AutoCommand
aware of the safety precautions installed and their limitations. Stress the impor-
tance of switching the On/Off control switch to the "OFF" position (down) every
time the car is serviced. Show the user how the control switch must be turned
off and on again after pulling out the key before leaving the car. If the user
forgets to enable the AutoCommand
can enable it by pushing and holding the middle transmitter button for 6 sec-
onds. Give the user a copy of the tan page - USER TIPS AND NOTES so that
they can familiarize themselves with the product.
USER INFORMATION: The tan USER TIPS AND NOTES sheet or Wallet Card
gives you further detail regarding daily use of this product. Any modifications
not expressly approved by DesignTech will void the user's authority to operate
the equipment.
