I haven't figure out how to make the immobiliser bypass work properly, can you provide any tips on that topic? Thanks in advance.

First, be sure one of your keys is placed in the box properly. The chip should be in the circle of wire thingy.

like this:



Screw the top back on tightly, the key should not move in there. Next, immobilizer is this device sitting on the ignition (it is held on by clips on the top which can be gently pushed aside to remove):



The wire from the bypass that is in a ring, must be taped around the edge of the immobilizer like so:



Wrap it tightly around, and tape it REALLY well. You do not want that thing ever slipping off, especially if you are stashing it elsewhere in the dash (which is what I did).

Be sure the immobilizer is connected to the original harness from your car. Plug the other end of the copper ring wire into the immobilizer bypass box (the blue plug). Then, plug the harness which runs from the immobilizer bypass box to the easygo module in correctly (see the wiring diagram). It should work now. Of course, you still have to do something about the steering wheel lock, I'll post something on that later.

Essentially you have three options for the steering wheel lock.

A. Have a copy of your key made (a non-chip key, should cost less than 2 bucks). Mark the key about half a centimeter where it sticks out of the ignition, cut the key off at that point, reinsert and use needle nose pliers to turn it to the on position. Cover, and never touch again.

B. Remove the entire ignition assembly. This requires some skill, as you must get that bolt off somehow (see this video [ame]http://youtu.be/rMv79GFUh-s[/ame]), or dremel through the cover folding it onto the steering wheel column (which is what I ended up doing in frustration).

C. Remove the steering wheel lock itself. Now, this is something I can't entirely vouch for, but might end up being the best way for a clean solution. I figured this out after dremeling off my ignition assembly, so I don't know how easy it is to do when it is still attached to the car. I am currently travelling so I won't be able to post pics for a couple of weeks, but here is how it would work:

Remove the steering wheel column cover. Take off the immobilizer. On the back side of the ignition cylinder (midway of where the key will be), there is a small hole with a button. The hole is hard to see, there are some metal prongs sticking out, it is not in those columns, it is a flat hole between them. You need to insert your key, and turn it to the on position (or it might be ACC, I can't remember offhand). In that position, use a pick or other narrow tool, and insert it into the small hole in the back. If the key is in the right position, the button will push in. Pull on the key, and the ignition will slide forward a little bit. Next, look for a small hole on the other side (you should be able to see it facing you as you sit in the seat). Insert a probe into that hole, and pull on the key more, the ignition should just slide right out.

Now, look into the chamber where the ignition was, on the bottom there is a spring, and two pieces of metal that slide back and forth (this is the steering wheel lock). This is the lock. You may be able to use long narrow needle nose pliers to remove the spring and the metal pieces. Then reinsert the ignition and you should be good to go.

Mind you this wasn't on my FRS, but an still. I just tapped two of the 3 wires together that ran to the clutch. If you first combo doesn't work, then try the other way. Sorry I can't be more helpful but that's what I did.

I bought this and had it installed yesterday! It all works, EXCEPT the remote engine start doesn't yet. The guy said it'll start and then die and keep trying to re start. He has to talk to them at EasyGo to figure out what needs to be done. However, the push start works great and so does the keyless entrance on the handle! The locks also automatically unlock when you turn the car off...nice!

That looks simple and easy, but isn't that gonna bring CEL up?
I heard someone got CEL because computer detected it as the clutch pedal is always pressed in.

I think it requires an inverter system though does it not?

Hmm...I don't know, I've never actually done this. If thats the case, I'm not sure how you would get around it.

Well.. I might wait and try research more and live without remote start until the winter. The only reason I want it is for the winter tho~
