AFter a keyless/remote start install, the key will not start the car through the ignition. Remote start will start the car though.

The remote start is a bulldog (I hate those things, but the customer had already bought it), and the bypass is a Peripheral key-box. The Bulldog's "negative out when remote starting" wire doesn't go completely to ground when it's activated, so I had to ground the box so it works all the time. Probably a bad idea I'm sure.

Does the keysense wire have to be used with this car, or will that help?

youll need to rewire the key box to ONLY activate when remote start, thatll take care of ur problem.

no keysense needed, just wire the activation wire (the one you grounded) to a neg wire when rmeote start.

btw, those unit works fine for me, but the quality of it is very horrible.

The - out only goes to .68 when you attempt to remote start, and that won't activate the bypass. Any other suggestions?
