Universal Transponder Bypass

IMPORTANT IF NOT USING XPRESSKEY:

Before installing, inform the customer that one of the vehicle's coded keys must be used in the installation and installed

permanently in the unit. If a new key is purchased at the dealer, make sure to code the new key to the factory

immobilizer or have the dealer do this. In many vehicles, the new key must be coded at the dealer.

IMPORTANT:

It is also the installer's responsibility to inform the customer of the following: If they wish to have additional keys

programmed to the vehicle's immobilizer system, certain vehicle manufacturers require that all programmed keys be

reprogrammed at the time the new key is added. In this case, it would be necessary to remove the already programmed

key or XPRESSKEY from the TBXKEY module to reprogram it.

(SEE INSTALLATION BELOW)

This installation method will only work with immobilizer systems that have a two wire factory

antenna harness. This alternate interface method is not guaranteed to work with all immobilizer

systems due to differences in transponder systems but one of the best choice for European

vehicles. It is meant to provide the installer with an alternative interface method for most two-wire

transponder ring systems.
