i have  a oem ford remote start and alarm combo (code alarm) installed in a 03 lincoln ls. i'm having 1 problem with the system that no one so far can help me with. every now and then (usually when cold) when i press the start button the alarm will trigger, when the button is pressed the parking lights flash to give confimation of rear defrost turn on (although the rear defrost will only actvate after start so
nothing is being activated. i changed the remote start seqence  to press lock then start and the alarm never falses. it only happens sometimes when it was progammed for a push and hold start. when the alarm falses the  system indicates the trunk pin is what set it off. i've swapped the brain to rule out defective product. i also have the same unit in a 05 aviator and never had a problem. if anyone has any idea as to what could cause this please let me know it woud be greatly appreciated.
i've called code tech but they do not have an answer
thanks

first off I don't believe there is an "OEM" remote start for the vehicle..it is an aftermarket..probably installed at the dearler by some other company and the unit is liscenced by ford..but NOT a ford product.

But regardless..it has a problem. I would replace , disconnect or check the hood pin..the hood and trunk pin may be connected to the same wire so you don't know which one is bad..but if the hood pin wire is getting a bad reading..the unit won't work and you will have problems and intermittent false alarms.
