Either there is no power (+12vDC) on the red wire, or no ground (0vDC) on the black wire. Measure the voltage across these terminals and ensure the unit is getting 12vDC when the vehicle is idle, during crank and running with the key.

The dome light turns on when the driver inserts the key and steps on the brake pedal. This happens because the bypass kit is instructing the vehicle to disable the RAP (Retained Accessory Power) by sending a door open signal to the BCM (Body Control Module). This signal is sent when the bypass kit receives the falling edge of the ground-out-while-running signal from the remote starter. This symptom is normal and should be ignored because the unit is functioning properly. Without this feature the radio w...

The PASSLOCK-SL will program properly but the vehicle will not start. Midway through 2005 production GM introduced a change in the 2005 Pontiac Pursuits' anti-theft system. The newer system uses a Passkey III (PK3) on top of the previous Passlock II system. Have a look at the stamp near the top of the metal shaft on the key. If the key is stamped with + then the vehicle is equipped with Passlock II and Passkey III (PK3) you will need to use the PATS-GM-2.
