Data Bypass/Interface Port
Dedicated input used when installing the additional bypass interface kit required for most vehicles on the road today equipped with factory installed anti-theft systems. This plug-in port eliminates any wiring needed between the remote starter module and the bypass kit (bypass/interface kit included. Wiring between the bypass interface and vehicle required).
Includes any needed "NKR" Bypass Interface Kit
No need to give up one of your vehicles keys (or purchase a 3rd key) in order to install a remote car starter in your vehicle: The NKR ("No Key Required" for operation) bypass interface kit included with a VSS system only requires your vehicle's keys for programming, not operation, meaning you don't have to stick one of your keys in a box, mount it under the dash and wrap an antenna loop around your ignition cylinder.
Includes Power Door Locks Interface
No matter what type of power door lock circuit your vehicle is equipped with the system will include the needed component. Many vehicles on the road today have what is known as a "data-type" or "multiplexed" power door locking circuit. This means that the vehicle is not equipped with conventional positive or negative triggered wiring that can simply be tapped into when installing an aftermarket keyless entry system. When a vehicle is equipped with this type of power door locks circuit an additional interface kit is necessary to install any brand of keyless entry system. Additionally, many older vehicles can require an additional 5 -wire relay adaptor with or without resistors, no matter what type of power door lock circuit your vehicle is equipped with the mandatory component will be included with the kit.
Step-by-Step Vehicle Specific Installation Guide
No surfing the internet, no videos to watch, no sitting with a lap-full of "spaghetti-wire" and jumping from wiring chart to manual, trying to figure out what wires are needed (or not needed) to connect to your vehicle. Each CA5554-VSS system include's a step-by-step vehicle specific installation manual to indicate exactly what wire from the system connects to what wire in the vehicle, where the wire is located and how to confirm that you found the correct wire using the VSS kits supplied LED style test probe.
LED Polarity Tester Probe Included
No need for using awkward multi-meters that indicate voltage level's that can confuse readings and require the use of two probes and a bare spot on the wire in order to take a reading. Each of our VSS kits includes an easy to use LED style test probe to use along with the VSS kits step-by-step vehicle specific installation manual. This test probe simplifies the procedure of finding and testing for the correct wire in your vehicle by lighting a green or red LED to indicate the target wire's polarity (explained in each step of our vehicle specific install manuals).
Vehicle Specific Extras
To avoid the inconvenience of getting into the middle of an installation and finding out that you need to stop and run to the auto parts store for a relay or radio shack for some resistor's or whatever, we include any needed extra relays w/harness (for example, for power trunk activation, 3rd Accessory etc.) and/or diodes, resistors, voltage inverters, etc. needed for your specific vehicle.
Quick-Connect Installation Kit
Each VSS kit includes 3 different size's of quick-connect "T-Tap" connectors with male spade connectors machine crimped to the ends of the systems wiring for making quick connections from the system to your vehicle's wiring. Also included are crimp cap connectors for connecting wires end-to-end and self-tapping screws with ground loop connectors for making chassis ground connections to the vehicle. Nylon zip ties are also supplied for securing wiring, control module and sensor placement.
Vehicle Compatibility Guarantee
