My brother's installed an alarm/remote start in my EX sedan. We tapped into the dome light wire at the passenger kick panel for the door triggers. Both of the passenger doors function fine for the alarm, but as soon as you kill the ignition and open the driver's door, the power lock button stops functioning and the open door stops sending a signal to the dome light. Strangely, opening the driver's door also stops the rear driver's side door from signaling for the dome light to light. This also causes the aftermarket alarm LED to light solid. The convenience lights on both doors work fine.
One thing we did in the install is we didn't use the factory arm/disarm wires from the aftermarket alarm, rather we used factory hood switch for the aftermarket alarm, and bridged the wire so the factory alarm never arms. I'm wondering if this method of bypassing factory alarm may somehow be causing this, or if it's something else we've overlooked. Any points in the right direction would be awesome.
