Okay, now I messed around with my alarm, now, the engine wont shut off.  Does anyone know where in the electrical system this could happen? The car keeps running, my accessories are ALWAYS on, I cant turn them off.  Can someone help me ?

So I brought it in to the place that hooked it up, they couldnt figure out what it was... then I brought it in to FORD, they said it looked like a mess down there after they charged me for 1 hour, The mechanic told me to get rid of all the alarm wires, he couldnt figure out what it was.......now I have the car back and wondering if anyone has had this happen, its not the ignition switch, I pulled the ignition  harness and my car keeps running.  ive read my vehicle schematics and all, could someone tell me If they might have removed a couple stock wires for the remote start to work OR do they just splice in and could the relays be bad? Or could someone tell me how the compustar remote start relays are hooked up in my car?

Its a 98...check his sig.
If you unplug the brain and the accessories stay on, its probably a problem with the ignition switch, or a relay locked up somewhere in the car. If you unplug the brain and the accessories shut off, its a locked up relay in the brain.

Well, I completely took out my alarm, and presto, it all works like normal, I said to my self, I should just go buy two new relays for my alarm, but, I was too lazy.  I think that is what the problem  was.  So now I took out all wires and have to go have someone put it back in again.  I have a new found respect for all electronics installers again.  I see how much work is put in to a Compustar Install.  WOW.  To everyone reading this, thank you all for doing what you do. If anyone is from Minnesota, could you drop me a line? Or could you tell me a good place to have this alarm put in again, OR is there a better choice of ALARM? or is compustar top of the line, it just has its hiccups?
