Car Alarms: ignition possible lock alram issue, engine cranks, gm vehicle

Question
I have a 1998 Trans Am ws6. I have to turn the ignition off and on 6-7 times before the car will start. The starter is turning over the car just wont start. After the car starts it runs fine, however when you shut it off it does it again. I have had the fuel line preassure checked and that was ok. One other issue is the driver door lock just stopped working. I have had it removed and sent to a lock smith for repair (can the broken lock cylinder cause this ?). This car has an older alpine alarm system can this be the issue ( though it worked for several years before this) Please any advice would be great. Best Regards Ross

Answer
This problem is likely not related to the
APLINE or the door locks. Those are seperate
issues and should be dealt with on they're own.

This soumds like the normal ware n tare GM vehicle
experience. I know it's very annoying for owners of GM vehicles,
having to constantly deal with this issue. :>( ,
So let's fix that.

Not too hard to do if you've ever done Car stereo
or, Car alarm work. If not,
(don't be proud! A lot of people won't do this work),
Then locate someone who does car alarms and remote start
work as this is right up they're alley!)

However, the PLJX bypass kit is what you need here
for remote starter applications or,
to terminate your VATS system for good.

The only thing you need for this to work is:

THE VEHICLE'S ENGINE MUST BE
ABLE TO START AND RUN FOR AT LEAST
1 MINUTE TO ALLOW FOR THE BYPASS MODULE
TO BE PROGRAMMED!

However, if this is NOT your situation,
and the engine cranks & tries but does NOT turn
over, then you would also need 1 relay
and socket, plus the proper resistor to get it
to crank and start and keep running,
THEN you would install the self learning PLJX module
to KEEP PASSLOCK / VATS from engaging again.

Just doing the relays and resistors is temporary
because it is subject to variance changes due
to extreme temperatures.

The PLJX Bypass Kit corrects these variance's
automatically, thus keeping the VATS
(VEHICLE ANTI THEFT SYSTEM) safely
inoperable.

To sum it up, this will help as long
as you can follow direction and can have this
interfaced correctly to solve the issue.
*We suggest taking it to a local car alarm
remote starter/stereo installer to have this
done as GM service WILL NOT do it.
They're interest is in FIXING the PASSLOCK 1/VATS
issue, not circumventing, getting around or,
bypassing it for you. There's no money in
that for them!

& that's really all there is to it.
Once purchased, I will forward all working
notes for your vehicle to study prior to installation,
and it will be shipped within 24 hours.

When ready, click or copy, cut n paste
the link below that best fits your situation:

If the vehicle's engine tries to crank, but does NOT engage/
turn over. You will need both the bypass kit, and
the relay application to get it started and bypassed
for good. This option is 74.95

HOWEVER...

If your vehicle's engine can start, even after waiting 10 minutes
before it will crank over on it's own, you need the PLJX bypass kit
by itself. 64.95.

.............................................................

THIS IS OPTIONAL (BUT SUGGESTED BUY OUR TECHNICAL STAFF!!!!)

If your vehicle's battery needs to be removed for service at any time,
you will need to reprogram your bypass kit!

To avoid this eventuality, we suggest you install the
optional bypass backup battery for 14.95 so that the PASSLOCK BYPASS module
keeps powered, and programmed during the servicing of the vehicle.
If this interests you, the following link includes the
cost of the Backup Battery Kit:
