I have a compustar 2wss-as  unit in my ford contour svt, manual transmission,  with a buried key inside my vehicle. My question is, after i remove the key from ignition, step on my brake, it turns my vehicle off, I understand this is normal, but the issue Im having is, my electronics in the car all still work.  Wipers, sunroof, power windows, my door switches stay illuminated, all work with the key out of the ignition  ........and as a result, my battery is dead the next day.  has anyone experienced this problem?  A defective brain, or is it the buried key to my ignition?

Well, Ive had this alarm for like 2 years, and it was working great. Can you help explain to me why that would help?

ah that will not help you what I posted, I thought maybe you just had the alarm/starter just put in and this is what was happening

I have the same alarm in a 2005 Ford and when I pull the key out of the ignition my stereo stays on, I know there is a way to fix this but I am to busy working on customers cars

I will get around to it though

Seems like my car (thinks) the key is turned ON or something.  Really wierd and troublesome.  Guess Ill have to wait till payday to bring it in. What do you think would happen if I unplugged the Compustar Brain?  I tried unplugging the buried key and it still keeps happening......after I unplugged the buried key my FORD security light blinked and i couldnt start it, had to unplug the battery, plug in the Buried Key, then connect my battery to get around the Ford Security thing.....This really sucks. I wish I  could just unplug the whole Ford Transponder Key thing altogether.

is your car a manual or automatic,

if its manual the brain goes into reservation mode and the car keeps running when you take the key out, this is when the accessories stay on RIGHT?

this is when my radio stays on also, but since you have mentioed it I am going to see if my wipers also stay on, cause I always shut everything off when I leave the car except for the heat

yeah, its a manual, wipers, even my heater motor wiill stay running if I dont shut it off....... Im also thinking my prob is the light blue/white brake wire......but i looked and probed it and everything is fine.....to make the situation worse, my car wont even shut off when i step on the brake IT STAYS RUNNING!!  To shut my car off I have to put it in gear and kill my engine by letting the clutch out!!!!!! I have to get this looked at or something This is driving me crazy!

yeah i know in reservation mode after i take the key out, my accesories are working, but this is happening after I take the key out and step on the brake, and/or  open and close my door, my car stays running and it wont shut off.  What do you think would happen if I unplug the Compustar Brain Would this bypass the buried key??
