Here you go, its from ls1camaro.net
Disable Progressive Door Locks

Progressive door locks is a feature of the factory keyless entry system that not everyone likes, including myself. Basically it's when you press the unlock button on the remote once to unlock the drivers door, and twice to unlock the passenger door. These instructions are on how to bypass it, so that both doors will unlock with only one button press. The double press of the button will now be an extra channel, giving you the ability to control other options such as: Remote start, Auto window-down, Turn on the radio, and whatever else you can think of that needs a pulse to activate. Please note that you will need to purchase a separate module in order to use these features, but you can still retain the factory keyless entry, which keeps the costs very low.

Procedure

1. Under the glove box you will see a black panel, with two clips right at the base (by the glove box) that holds the front side of the panel up. Remove these two clips so that the panels hangs down, giving you access to the wires above it.

2. Look for a green plug. There will be five wires in it: An Orange/Black stripe, a Red/black stripe, a Grey/Black stripe, a solid Tan, an a solid Grey wire.

3. Unplug the harness.

NOTE: It appears that there are two cars, those that have a single green plug that plugs directly into the ECM, and those who have the two-sided male and female plug. Determine which style plug you have and follow directions accordingly.


If you have the TWO COLORED module: If you have the SINGLE module:
4. There are two sides to this module, the male and female side. The female side is the light green larger side. The male side is the smaller side and is dark green. You will be working with the female side. Cut the grey/black striped wire on the female side.

5. You should now have a short length of wire going back into the female plug, while the other side goes back into the car. Splice the side going back into the plug with the Tan wire.

6. The wire that goes back into your car is now your extra channel on your alarm. Its is a 12V pulse. 4. Cut the grey/black striped wire.
5. You should now have a short length of wire going back into the plug, while the other side goes back into the car. Splice the side going back into the car with the Tan wire.

6. The wire that goes back into your plug is now your extra channel on your alarm. Its is a 12V pulse.


Notes: Most remote starts and window modules only need a pulse to activate. This will let you use them with the factory alarm. Installation of these components would be done just as if there were an aftermarket alarm, except that you would hook the trigger wire to the grey/black wire that leads into the car.



NOTE: If you accidentally splice the wrong wires and end up with non-functioning locks simply replace the COURTESY fuse found by the drivers side door fuse panel (20 AMP fuse)

Which was copied from my website <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="gr_images/icons/mad.gif" /> EDIT:This was directed at the site ls1camaro.net not Kevin G...sorry Kevin if it seemed that wayhttp://members.aol.com/kustomz28/pro...ivebypass.html

On a side note if you dont feel like doing the mod yourself I have a plug and play harness that will do it for you. They are $30 and take all of 5 minutes to pop in.

Thanks for the great info guys!
Kevin: by plug & play I assume you have a harness that makes the correct connections without having to cut & splice any wires..correct? Will this work with my 99 WS6 TA because someone mentioned something about 2 different cars? I might consider this option has I am fussy with cutting factory wires.

Ok, so after we get it wired to one press, how can we use the second press to roll down our windows?

Yes it is a factory harness with plugs on both ends. You simply unplug the harness from the BCM, plug it into one end of the new harness and then plug the other end of the new harness into the bcm. This works on all 98-up fbodies. Possibly a 97 but havent verified that.

Note that this doesnt do the windows. Its simply gives you an output from the factory alarm that you could use to control a window module. Youd have to get a window module such as a DEI 530T and wire it into the car. Then youd use the one wire coming off of the plug n play harness to control the input wire of the window wire.

Heres a crappy pic of the harness but gives you and idea of what it is.

The wire sticking out is what you'd hook to an accessory such as the window module or remote start.

okay this might be a great Idea .... can we use the second channel to start the car ??? ... i guess we would have to leave the key in run mode all the time to accomplish that ... keyless remote start with factory remote ..... <<< sounds very catchy huh .....

locals here do some work with the wire components to the key cylinder, so they could install an after market keyless remote start, ill double check how its done & if its a constant or a pulse signal that is required to accomplish this ..... will be back with more if updates are around !!

It seems handy I guess, but all that work just so you don't have to push a button twice? We are some lazy bastards.
