I installed a 562T on my '03 saturn just as the dealer told me to. I know the keysense needs to "see" ground when activating remote start. I was told to just run the (-) 200mA status output wire to the keysense (as well as the bypass module). Well, the car's alarm sensor light stays on all the time. I was told in another forum to take that status output wire, diode isolate it, and run a relay to the keysense. So, is this how I would wire up the relay?:

86: (-) status output, 85: 12V+, 87:chassis ground, 30:output to keysense.

use the blue/white wire to activate keysense, and the blue to activate bypass.

You mean the defogger/2nd status output wire from the remote start harness(H3)? Why isn't the primary status output wire working if it outputs (-)200mA? Does splitting it in two decrease it's effectiveness?
