There's a reason for that: It is also teaching someone how to steal the car.

I am sorry, but that is a ridiculous and untrue statement. Learning proper wiring for a remote starter key bypass system does NOT equal teaching somebody to steal a car. A key bypass does not operate without a key (and properly coded RFID).

It is both TRUE, and correct. In order to steal the car, you need to bypass the immobilizer, EXACTLY what you are asking...............

Um wrong sorry try again.

A remote starter is NOT trying to bypass the immobilizer. It requires a key.

You obviously do not understand what a key bypass for a remote starter is: In order to start the car WITH a dealer programmed key you need to “bypass” the immobilizer by your definition. There is literally no difference Using a properly programmed RFID to start the car via the immobilizer does not facilitate its theft. There is an entire industry of legitimate companies built upon manufacturing remote start devices.

Once again, determining the proper wiring for such a remote starter does NOT facilitate its theft. It would not and can not operate without a programmed key.

You are attempting to hijack this thread with inaccurate hysteria.
