I have a 98 cavalier and am wondering if there is any way of bypassing comp so that keyless entry works while car is running

Find the ignition wire at the keyless entry module and cut it( be sure to cap it or tape it to prevent short). The keyless entry module is in the drivers rear quarter panel.

First of all thanks. I have another question, its not in the kick panel because i am not seeing it in the rear quarter and do you know what color the wire is. Also my car is 2 door I dont know if that makes any difference as to its location or not.
Thanks

it doesn't look like the unit has a park lamp output. what you could do is steal the (ground) lock pulse, and use it to trigger a relay that powers the parklamp circuit. Same for unlock (with diodes, you could use the same relay for both). If you want to get really fancy, put a flasher on the output...if the pulse is long enough, it'll flash the lights for you....

using wire 11 (the horn output), you could connect it to the positive side of a siren. Then using wire 12, make sure its connected to +12V, and you're good to go.

kinda sucks the unit doesn't flash the lamps by itself!
