help, key wont take over the remote start

98 accord ex v6, viper 790xv. I remote start test with a key in, havent install the transponder yet. i notice that the key doesnt take over when i turn it to ignition.

my alarm stays in R/S until you hit the brake petal. If the key is in the ON position, it stays running. If no key, then no run after hitting the brake

well i havent use a transponder yet, i use the key to test the remote start. when after it's on i turn the key to on position (II) and it doesnt turn off when i i use the key to turn it off. it only turn off with the key if i hit the buttons again.

does it matter if i test the key without the transponder. the key should take over right? then i must have plug in the wrong brake wire then

i went out and checked mine for what you are doing. The key does not take over. If i R/S and put the key in, turn it to ON, or even CRANK, and back to OFF it does nothing. The alarm runs the vehicle until you hit the brake. The brake is what controls it. U have to hit the brake to move from PARK so thats what it uses.

I have 2 vehicles with R/S and they both operate in this manner.

whew, i thought i did something wrong.

thanks
