There is a problem with the bypass or bypass wiring. You should try by checking the wiring out. You should also triple check the ground. If all the wiring checks out then replace the module and see if the problem still persists. I have had a ton of DEI 555Ls go bad.

I have to agree.  It almost has to be a passlock issue.  If it is just a little off, it will still start, but will trip the security code.  Use a good quality dmm and compare the voltage when started by the key as compared to started by r/s.  Make sure they are the same.

What bypass did you use ? I know in the past I have made the mistake of placing the jumper on some of the bypasskit.com modules in the wrong orientation and it worked, but the security light or passlock light was left on until the key was removed and restarted.
