when the remote start tries to start the car, the factory system interrupts this process. i inserted the key into the ignition and when doing so the remote start will start the car... i looked online and there is mention of a GREEN/ purple wire in the drivers kick panel, but i searched for 3 hours and found nothing. I found a plug with 4 wires in it near the steering column and when unplugged the car will not start even with the key. Not sure what to do with those though.

Did you use some kind of immobilizer bypass module? My info says the vehicle has PATS. -------------

Mike- i am not familiar with pats or anything like that... I was an mecp certified installer in the mid 90's and have not really messed with this stuff since maybe 96... do you know where i can pick up an immobilizer module?

https://www.12voltshop.com/product.aspx?prodid=PKF1&categoryid=1314&parentcatid=13&id=COMPCHART, or just GOOGLE transponder bypass, and a whole bunch of stuff will pop up. You can also check with local shops, but it'll probably cost you more to get the part. -------------
