2-Way Remote Start and Door Lock Transmitter Package Installation AU0

17802087, 19213165

This kit is designed to add 2-way remote start with extended range and enhanced functionality. It is for vehicles not equipped with or prepped for remote vehicle start from the factory, for vehicles with option code AU0. If the vehicle is prepped for or equipped with remote vehicle start, use a kit for a vehicle equipped with option codes AP8 or AP3. The vehicle must have an automatic transmission. Adding remote start requires installation of a new hood latch and hood switch harness, which are included in this kit. The vehicle also needs to be reconfigured. This is done with a Service Programming System. The installer needs to call the Techline Customer Support Center (TCSC). The TCSC will ask for the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) and the Authorization Code from the kit. The call and Authorization Code are good for only one specific VIN.

Special Tools

Note: Please review this entire procedure before trying to perform it.

Note: When calling the TCSC, you must use the Authorization Code from the kit.

1. Verify the vehicle has the AU0 option and an automatic transmission. Call TCSC 1-800-828-6860 (English), 800-503-3222 (French), or 248-265-0840 (Spanish) to obtain programming instructions to add the remote start feature. You must have the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) that will be upgraded and the Authorization Code from the kit.
2. Using the Scan Tool and SPS terminal, reprogram the theft deterrent module (TDM, not VTD). Use "Normal" mode, and select the calibration with remote start. Refer to Theft Deterrent Control Module Programming and Setup.
3. Reprogram the body control module (BCM) using the method called out by the TCSC. Refer to Body Control Module Programming and Setup.
4. If the vehicle is equipped with the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), use the Scan Tool to perform the Copy and Paste TPM Information procedure. This will extract the TPM Tire Type information as well as the sensor data from the existing RCDLR prior to its replacement and store this information in the scan tool. After RCDLR replacement, the tire type and sensor data stored in the scan tool is written to the new RCDLR, negating the need to perform the tire type setup and sensor learn procedure. This must be performed BEFORE removing the old RCDLR. Refer to Remote Control Door Lock Receiver Programming and Setup.



5. Remove hood latch and install new latch (1). Refer to Hood Primary and Secondary Latch Replacement.
6. Secure the hood switch connector (2) to the radiator support brace (3) with the integral plastic retainer.
7. Connect the hood switch wiring harness (4) to the hood switch and route along the radiator support brace.
8. Secure the hood switch wiring harness to the radiator support brace using the integral plastic retainer (5).



9. Route the hood switch wiring harness ground ring terminal to G100 ground location (3).

Caution: Refer to Fastener Caution in the Preface section.

10. Remove the G100 ground bolt, add the hood switch wiring harness ground ring terminal under the existing ring terminal, and secure with original bolt.

Tighten
Tighten the bolt to 9 N·m (80 lb in).

11. Secure the hood switch wiring harness (1) to the forward lamp harness (2) or pipe if no harness is in this area with the integral tie wraps (4).



12. Route hood switch wiring harness (4) into engine compartment along the forward lamp harness (3) toward the instrument panel (I/P) harness in-line connector X103 (1). Secure the hood switch wiring harness to the forward lamp harness with the integral tie wraps (5).
13. Remove the I/P Connector X103 (1) from the left front wheel house liner (2) by disengaging the integral plastic clip.
14. Disconnect the forward lamp harness to I/P harness in-line connector X103.



15. Remove the TPA (2) from the back of the forward lamp harness connector.
16. Remove the cavity seals in positions "G" (3) and "H" (4) of the forward lamp harness connector X103.
17. Remove the secondary lock (1) from the forward lamp harness connector by inserting a small flat-bladed tool between the secondary lock and the connector housing. Gently pry the secondary lock out of the connector.
18. Insert terminals from the hood switch wiring harness. Ensure that the pink/black wire labeled "Cavity G" is in cavity G. Ensure that the purple wire labeled "Cavity H" is in cavity H.
19. Reinstall the secondary lock (1) and TPA (5) on the forward lamp harness connector.
20. Reconnect the forward lamp harness to the I/P harness connector X103 and secure the connector to the left wheelhouse liner with the integral plastic clip.
21. Adjust the hood latch placement as needed for proper hood alignment.
22. Physically replace the factory Remote Control Door Lock Receiver (RCDLR) with the 2-way RCDLR included in the kit. Refer to Remote Control Door Lock Receiver Replacement. Do not program or reassemble yet.
23. Install the antenna in the location specific to the antenna part number. Refer to 2-Way Remote Start, Door Lock, and Information Display Antenna Package Installation.
24. Program the 2-way RCDLR. Refer to Remote Control Door Lock Receiver Programming and Setup. Program the 2-way transmitter and the vehicle’s factory transmitters to the new RCDLR.
25. Turn the ignition off for 1 minute.
26. Turn the ignition on.
27. Using the scan tool, retrieve any Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) from all of the modules.
28. Clear all DTCs.
29. Remove the scan tool.
30. Operate the 2-way and factory transmitters in order to verify correct system operation. Refer to Remote Vehicle Start within Keyless Entry System Description and Operation. Press a command button with the vehicles ignition ON in order to synchronize the 2-way transmitter clock (if equipped) to the vehicle’s clock.
31. Drive the vehicle above 25 mph for at least 2 minutes. This is to update the tire pressure displays.
32. Add the transmitters to the customers key rings.
33. Place the 2-way Advanced Remote Start owner manual in Instrument Panel Compartment.
