If you abort the startup the radio will only stay on for ten minute before the BCM signals the peripheral to shut off the radio. This should not affect the battery, if that is the concern.

yeah your rite it was a purple wire. donno how that class 2 serial data stuff works so i was smart not to mess with that.
Battery is one issue, but my main concern is at night when parked on the street, and when the remote start goes off the display still stays on, and as you may know at night it is really bright, lights up the whole interior of the vehicle (since the dim feature will not be on while headlights lights off).
One night during winter around 8 pm, i started it but i took longer than expected and the starter turned off, but the screen kept on, and when i walked out i could see the light in the car from 1/4 of a block away. everyone walking by the truck turned to look at it. fortunately no one had any bad intentions that night, but anythings possible. Im a little paranoid since it is a $2 grand unit and its got no security features, except that of the truck.
Another reason is that if the music is on whne the remote start turns off the sound sensor and the shock sensor start being monitored again, and they get set off by the music every minute or so.
For now i try to remember to turn the screen and audio off every time i get outa the car (or at least whn i mite be using the remote later), but it is turning out to be a pain in the a$$.
again thanks for the help.
