Review on πŸ”‘ EASYGUARD EC003-1 PKE Passive Keyless Entry Car Alarm System with Push Button Start & Remote Start (DC12V) by Kadarius Gentry

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works great as long as you can diagnose problems.

Installed on a 1994 Toyota Camry. I used the Bulldog security system schematic and installed everything accordingly, but ran into a problem. Everything worked great but when I tried to start the car it just wouldn't start. The car does not have an immobilizer, so I was very confused. After 3 days of troubleshooting and testing I finally found a solution. In this car the ECU is disconnected from the ignition 1 wire, when the unit tried to start the car it cut the power to ignition 1. So I connected an ON relay of 12V DC to ignition 1 and ran a signal wire to the Device power cord. As a result, Ignition 1 and ECU are powered while the device is trying to start the car and the device can turn it on itself after the car has started. I think I might mention this in case someone else runs into this problem. The remote lock and unlock functions also work great, it's really nice to finally have a remote control for this device. It was a dealer option in 1994 and I didn't have one, so I had to manually lock and unlock the doors. Passive access and locks now work even better and ensure absolute security. The remote start function works great too and will be a great winter. All in all a great product that can upgrade any old car.

Pros
  • IMPORTANT: This item is not compatible with vehicles with dual impulse unlocking, will not work with pneumatic or vacuum locking system, will not work with vehicles with factory button start.
Cons
  • I won't say anything
