I installed an alarm/remote starter on a 1989 325i and all went well with one small exception. When I start the car from the remote my brake and license plate warning light come on Neiter come on if I start from the key. I can understand the brake warning because the remote start is tied to it and I think I will probably have to diode isolate it (just a guess and I don't know where), but the license plate warning I don't get.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
