Your van does not have a BCM. It has Vehicle Theft Deterrent (VTD) module inside the instrument panel, and it sends a password to the PCM, which enables the fuel injectors. You cannot bypass it. The purple wire is the data line.
(from GM PassKey and PassLock overview - Ricks Free Auto Repair Advice Ricks Free Auto Repair Advice | Automotive Repair Tips and How-To) The PassLock system works when the lock cylinder moves a magnet past a Hall effect sensor ... This system proved VERY unreliable as the Hall effect sensors had an extremely high failure rate. To repair the system, the shop would have to replace the lock cylinder housing because the Hall effect sensor can’t be replaced separately. From GM 30 Minute Learn Procedure
If the anti-theft system is being triggered or malfunctioning, the security light should come up on your dash and there will be associated trouble codes. Without those, it is very difficult to determine which, if any, component is malfunctioning. Or you might have a bad wiring connection somewhere. P0101 and P0107 are air intake related problems, which could prevent the engine from running. The codes could conceivably be symptoms of the first issue. |

Vehicles for export are different. They have a Vehicle Immobilizer Module (VIM) instead. (Yes that's it there in your photo, mounted above the engine cover)
The relearn procedure probably won't work for you then. I don't know exactly how it works unfortunately. But it does communicate over the serial bus. This is all I could find: Transmitter Programming Procedure (Export)An override code is used to disable the vehicle immobilizer module (VIM) and allow keyless entry transmitter programming. The override code is a 5 digit number which is entered into the VIM at the factory. The VIM override code may be entered manually or with a scan tool.To determine the code and enter the override mode manually, perform the following:

steps 1 through 6 explain how to obtain the code.

Just so I understand this correct: Do I use the override code just to be able to reprogram the fobs or program new fobs to the van or could I leave the immobilizer in the inactive mode permanently? I have one working fob and that one always closes/opens the doors and turns off/on the alarm as it should. But still, the van won´t start most of the times. Could it still be worth doing the 6 step process? |
Sorry I wish I could tell you more. The instructions say it will disable it.
