Good afternoon and thanks for taking the time to read my message today!
I am a long time reader, first time poster so.. here goes!
2005 Chevy Trailblazer
Reached out to support team of the bypass module and explained to them this trick of resetting the battery and they said the problem is not with the passlock or the bypass unit, but rather a "Power Distribution Issue"
I am thinking I will just bring it to the shop, as I have been dealing with this whole problem and making it work for over a year now... I'd be fine using the car in it's condition but I am having trouble getting a State Inspection done due to computer being reset all the time..
I always thought it was my modest electrician work with installing the bypass unit....hell I guess I've had it right this whole time lol.
Checked fuses under the hood and all seemed good... Do I need a new fuse box? Any advice on where this power that goes to the BCM comes from? What should I tell the mechanic? Just explain like I did here?
Thanks all!
Have a great day!

- Occasional issue with Passlock symbol coming on dash, car not starting..
- Bought a Passlock bypass unit and installed by the BCM
- Bypass works great... except car still doesn't start sometimes and wasn't getting any power to the BCM / Bypass Module when this occurs..
- Figured out no power was being sent back there
- Figured out that if I remove the negative battery cable from car battery, wait a moment, and put it back on.. power starts flowing back there to the BCM & Bypass Module and car starts right up after doing this
