alarm help with fortin bypass

I have a viper 5701 and trying to install the alarm myself. I installed alarms on a few cars but never with a keysense.

I tapped into the lock (purple) and unlock (green/black) wires from the kick panel but when i arm or disarm the locks dont engage.

I also have a Fortin KEY-OVERRIDE-SL2 box but the instructions that came with it is garbage. where is the data in and data out wires?

Do our trucks have a data link box?

Here is the link to the fortin installation instructions.

oh yeah, you might want to wire up your additional starter relay. Alot of people forget that one. I get calls all the time about it.

 

everywhere i've been looking, it says violet is lock and green/black is unlock but i'll try it your way also.

Can anyone comment on the fortin bypass? thanks

 

if you try and do the fortin, and it isnt programming, have you verified that you have a transponder in the vehicle yet?

 

i thought they came standard in all the v6 models. Is there a number you can pm me so i can contact you for additional information if its not to much trouble. thanks bro

 

go to www.12voltdata.com, that is fortins and idatalinks forum. All you should have to find with the bypass is the TX and RX, it should be in a 5 or 6 pin plug by the ignition cylinder. It prob says to get ignition and ground there also, but the ignition in the ignitions harness and chassis ground are fine.

 

and phd is right, definitely hook up your second starter.

 

ok i figured out the rx and tx but where does the data link cable from the fortin go to?

 

i get what you mean now, you cannot hook directly up to the fortin and the DEI. You have to "hardwire" the power, ground, and (-) out when start directly from the fortin to the viper. D2D will only work for compatible models.


12voltdata forum is strictly for idatalink only. Fortin has their own forum and trust me when i tell you, there are no fortin problems/questions on the idatalink forum.

 

Really?! I've gotten some good help from people on that forum, I use the directechs forum too but as soon as you start talking about anything not DEI the mods shut it down quick.

But you're right, the D2D will only work with some units, mostly compustar i think. Just hardwire them and you'll be fine. All in all it a pretty easy truck to do. Good luck!

 

phd12volt thanks brother for all your help. Couldn't have done it without you. God bless man

 

not a problem at all. Glad i could help. Let me know what you think about a preharnessed unit set up for the Tacomas.

 

How does one do that?

Where did your go?
