GP1138 Posted December 31, 2003 Report Share Posted December 31, 2003 Hey, long time no post, just been lurking for awhile. I was browsing through my local thrift store recently, and came across a VSC 3100 GM security system kit for about $8. Brand spanking new, I swear. The kit itself comes with 2 fobs, a siren, a starter kill relay, and the box everything runs to. I'm going to have to remove the old keyless entry kit I have in there, the bulldog, because this is seriously better. I just wondered if anyone had any tips/experience with or about this kit. Though it's seriously weird I found this in a thrift store, of all places. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redfox340 Posted December 31, 2003 Report Share Posted December 31, 2003 You have an existing factory keyless entry on your Grand Prix? If so, you cant' just rip out the old system; the electronics are integrated into your door locks. If removed, the power locks won't work since the KE module completes the door lock circuit. You'll half to integrate and splice into the existing system to have it work out for you. If an aftermarket system, then yeah it'll be an easy rip-out and re-install of the new system. - Erik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GP1138 Posted December 31, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2003 Nono, I installed the aftermarket Bulldog kit. This car didn't come with keyless/alarm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redfox340 Posted December 31, 2003 Report Share Posted December 31, 2003 Nono, I installed the aftermarket Bulldog kit. This car didn't come with keyless/alarm. In that case, it should be an easy install. Recommendation: once old system is removed, re-wire to stock. Then wire new system. You don't want to blow a fuse or circuit by trying to splice into the wrong wire(s). - Erik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldsmoBeast Posted January 1, 2004 Report Share Posted January 1, 2004 yeah its really easy...you probably know most of it, but when i was wiring the alarm on the 91 CS, sirens, starter kill and all, i did the whole thing in one afternoon. just be careful where you cut and if you can, solder all of your connections before taping them. I had some bad grounding issues at one point and i couldn't even start my car!!! So just be careful, and try to keep it as neat as possible. Nothings worse than finishing up a job and getting it working to realize that ur wires are all tangled up and all over the place and you can't get them hidden away good luck YK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
