I did some looking last night.

I traced the starter kill wire from the remote start unit - it's not even connected.

The lights that flash repeatedly is acutally the FACTORY ALARM going off - the siren had been disconnected which is why I wasn't able to recognize immediately what the flashing lights meant.

The starter lockout is clearly a function of the Mitsubishi Security System. I was told by Joel,CA (fmr mitsu tech, used to be a contributor here - that there's supposed to be an LED button that will over-ride the alarm. Tried it - no go there either.

This has turned into a serious headache.

It's been towed to the local import electric shop.
I can't wait for the bill!! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" />
