This is the iDatalink ADS BLADE-AL Bypass Module and Vehicle Interface. The BLADE-AL is a three-in-one interface: immobilizer bypass, door lock control and CAN-bus integration. During a remote start it satisfies the vehicle's factory immobilizer so the engine will run without a key present, and it gives your remote starter access to the lock, unlock and status signals it needs from the vehicle's data network. This is a cartridge, not a standalone module. It slots into the dedicated dock on a BLADE-enabled remote starter, which keeps the install tidy with no second box to mount or wire. If your remote starter doesn't have a BLADE dock, you want the standalone ADS-ALCA instead. We flash it for you. Tell us your vehicle's year, make and model at checkout and we'll load the correct firmware before it ships. If you'd rather do it yourself, you'll need an ADS-USB Weblink Updater, sold separately. Some vehicles need additional accessories, also sold separately. Not sure this is what your vehicle needs? Search your vehicle or call us on 647-439-4485.
