It also has a Service/Valet Mode that allows your vehicle to start with no PIN code.
You will also need an OBD cable that has OBD pins, which are connected to the CAN bus. These cables are available on Amazon/Ebay for around PS50. You will also require a cable with OBD pins connected to CAN Bus. These cables can be purchased on eBay or Amazon for PS50. The next step is to connect the cable into the wire harness of your car for example, in the radio wiring harness.

The installer will guide you through the process to do this during installation. The system includes a valet mode feature that allows you to temporarily disable pin input sequences so that the mechanic or garage can service the vehicle without knowing the pin number.
