I just finished installing a Compstar Fm900 remote start/alarm in my 2003 ford explorer. Everything seems to work fine except for a problem with the remote start. The car won't remote start when the alarm is armed/doors locked, but it will start when the alarm is unarmed/unlocked. I'm done for tonight, but any suggestions are appreciated.

Reverse the 2 wires you have coming off of the starter kill relay.
