Factory Passive Anti-theft system with after market too, I think. Can the P.A.T.S be bypassed by connecting ignition switch straight to starter?

Hello,

Sorry you cannot bypass the alarm system in your car. I would remove the aftermarket unit first and then try a system hard reset which you can do by following this guide:

Please run down this guide and report back.
