I did an alarm & remote starter on BMW 325 everything works, but when the car starts the head light turn on and when i unlock the doors the head light flashs as the parking lights. the problem is the hid is going to damage. the other problem is when the remote start turn off the dome light turn on and it triggers the alarm. Does some one know what can I do to fix the problems? I will apreciate any info thanks.:D ------------- how own your mind, control your life.

Please read how to post in this forum. Post the alarm make/model and the car year/make/model. It saves time from asking the basic questions so folks can attempt to help..
A lot of aftermarket alarms have the light flashing option when remote started as a feature. Post more about the alarm make and car's year..

can't help with the problem only to say that i have done a few of these cars and had no problem as long as you interupt the parking light wire in the ribbon used in the light switch box check that and also that you don't have the auto lights turned on Know i have a question what bypass module did you use as i'am yet to find one that works with the e46 ------------- I Love This Industry!!

i try everything the problem is only when the car is in remote start the head light flash when the car is off and you press the unlock just the parking lights flash thas really stupid right. i will use another realey thanks any way. the module that i used was 555b wish didn't work. so I used 555me just get the factory ring use the power locks plug the alarm. to conect behind the factory ring, then i use a relay. you have to cut the factory wire and conect to the relay is easy. ------------- how own your mind, control your life.
