I just installed a Python 872 remote start/alarm system in my RS. The alarm works great but I'm having issues getting the remote start working.
As you know, our cars have a delayed dome light switch when they have not been armed by the factory alarm. This delay is causing my new alarm system to think one of the doors is open when I activate the remote start, causing it to disable the remote start whenever I try and activate it.
I called Directed Electronics (they make the python alarms) and they said that I would need to install a relay in order to isolate the dome light loop from the door pin switches, but I have no clue how to do this.
Has anyone else encountered this problem while installing a remote start in their RS? Does it only happen with models with a factory alarm system? Does anyone know where I could put this relay that Directed was talking about?
Any help or link to info would be appreciated. Thanks!
Vehicle/alarm specifics:
-2001 RS w/ factory alarm (the one with the big siren under the hood)
-Python 872 alarm
