Installed a 4103 Avital in a 08 Tundra with and xk05 bypass.. Connected 12v to thick black wire at fuse box.. dark green to starter  light green  ignition 1 black ignition 2 and gray for acc...  all 22 guage wires from the switch.... In remote start I get a air bag light and a tire pressure monitor light.. on key take over those lights do not go out. you need to shut the truck down and restart with the key.. when starter with a key there is no lights at all.. Tried  swapping ignition wires no luck.. Also had a problem getting the remote into program mode.. I would assume there is a messed up ign or acc wire.. ignition wires tested fine.. HELP  I need to get this truck wrapped up.. Thanks in advance!!!

If you start it with the key and try to have the Avital take over and remove the key, do the lights also turn on? And you've tested all your ignition connections to ensure that the pink/white cable from the Avital was programmed correctly to 2nd Ignition?

Generally a dash light comes on (such as airbag, check engine, etc) if an ignition/2nd ignition wire isn't getting power when the starter is engaged to start the truck. Therefore, the test I suggested before may not light the airbag and tire pressure lights, because it was started with the key that did power both ignition wires upon starting it. Hope that makes sense.

Thanks for your replies... I tripple checked everything and determined I had a cold soldered joint on the 2nd ignition wire... soldering to the small  wires I did not get a good connection. Lesson learned and all is fine now.. Thanks again for your suggestions  it prodded me to check things over again!!!!!
