EASYGUARD EC002 Smart Key RFID PKE Car Alarm System Passive Keyless Entry Remote Starter Push Start Button & Touch Password Entry Hopping Code

This product works as described and seems to be made well. The key fob looks and feels like an OEM fob. I took a big risk by installing this on a 2015 GMC Sierra HD Denali. I was not disappointed. This works perfectly. Nice to have PKE and push-to-start on a vehicle that should have had these features from the beginning.I have been in the IT business for 20 years. Installing this is not overly complicated if you have a good understanding of DC electrical circuits. Also, I used a Fortin Evo All to interface CANBUS. They make a kit for many newer vehicles that includes an ignition harness. This will keep you from cutting the factory harness.I can tell you to not connect door trigger wire, and connect brake wire of PKE system directly to vehicle brake wire, not Evo All brake output. You will also want to set dip switches following exactly instructions of disconnecting plugs before. Also this PKE system does not provide GWR output in a way that can be used by the Fortin Evo All. You will want to cut a key if you are installing on a vehicle with a steering wheel lock. In my case, I cut the head of the key down very small and attached it inside the steering column to bypass the immobilizer. Initially it was a concern, but I realized you cannot start the vehicle without disarming PKE system first. You will need a relay to make lights flash on many late model GM vehicles. If your vehicle is automatic, you may take what the instructions call "oil pan wire" and simply connect it to 12V constant.If you don't trust yourself to work on other people's expensive property, definitely find a professional installer to install this for you. This is not as simple as installing a car stereo.I highly recommend this product. Technical support, although by email and delayed due to time zone difference, is good. Eddy will relentlessly continue to work with you to answer your questions, provided you give a detailed explanation.

I installed this on my 1996 Toyota Corolla. I had manual doors, so I installed a power central lock kit in addition to this. I found the wiring diagram for my car online and once I found it, it took me a few weekends to get everything setup and running. Once you get everything correctly installed, the module works perfectly. Walk up to the car, and it unlocks for you, push the button to start the car. It's a pretty well programmed module in my opinion. You can't start or stop the car unless your foot is on the break, If you try to lock the car but the door is still open, it will honk. You can't remote turn off the engine with the keys if you are in the car to prevent you from accidentally sitting on the keys and killing the engine. There's even fail-safe/alternative methods to turn on and off the engine if the brake pedal wire were to become disconnected for some reason.I originally got this unit for the keypad entry, because I was tired of misplacing my keys all the time. Now if I lose the keys, I can still use my car with the keypad to unlock it and start the car, but I'm also very happy with the PKE function.If you want to do this yourself, it seems doable, but you do have to know a bit about electrical and wiring. I'm have an electrical engineering background, and installed the car stereo myself, so I had some experience before doing this. I also didn't mind if I screwed up my Corolla because it's a pretty old car anyway. I did end up blowing about 5 fuses through out the entire project because I wired the central locking system incorrectly the first time. With a basic car it's much easier to setup. I didn't need a key bypass module because my car doesn't have an induction key, and since I setup the central locking system I could debug it pretty easily. Some of the instructions are hard to understand the first time reading it, but for the most part you could figure out after reading it a few times.

This device has been installed for several years now on my 2003 mini cooper. I honestly would have removed and uninstalled it if it didn’t take so long to take apart the dash and get to it.The key fob does work pretty well outside the car, but when it’s inside the car it has to be in specific spots or it will act as if there is no remote, start honking the horn and will eventually shut off the ignition. Ask me how I know… my girlfriend took the car for a spin and then ended up on the side of the road confused while I was on a flight and unavailable to explain to her what was happening.The worst part of this experience is that the unit kills my car battery constantly. The Mini is not my daily work vehicle and so it sits for several days at a time without running. Unfortunately this unit runs the battery all the way to dead. I have tested to be sure it was this unit by removing its power supply and the battery does just fine. I’ve had to physically buy and replace 2x car batteries because of the damage it’s done to perfectly good batteries. If it was my daily driver I can promise you I would have removed this unit years ago. I pretty much plan to jump the car any time I need to use it and I have a portable jump pack in it at all times too.Maybe my unit is a dud but I already had to have them replace the remote antennas after the first installation because they simply didn’t work at all.My advice would be to avoid this model and look at something else.
