ok

i have it installed

1st problem is remote start only works when truck is not alarmed. if it is alarmed and i press the remote start, the lights come on on the dash as if it were getting ready to start but the engine doesnt crank over. also the heated seats dont come on when its below 0 degress (i thought they were to come on automaticly) i never hooked anything up to the Brown accessory wire on the colum. everything else seems to work fine.

I always wire into the negative parking lite wire- mainly because with trucks- there is a chance of a trailer being attached- and I want the vehicle to power all those extra trailer lights- not the R/S unit- so with the negative input- it tell the BCM to turn on its own lights- and all those amps are handled through the vehicle's circuits- if you wire it through the brown wire and use 12v positive- now all those amps go through your 10 amp parking light fuse or through your relay- then who gets the call when it fails--- you do--

sounds like you have your starter wire on the wrong side of your starter interrupt relay. It needs to be on the starter side, not the ignition switch side......

as far as heated seats- the truck OAT sensors has to think it is below freezing- not a real good way to test this until it gets well below freezing......
