Help with Remote Starter Install

Hey,

I'm trying to install an OmegaRS-4LX Remote Starter in my 2004 F150.
All the main harness hookups are installed and correct. I did not install any of the optional wires. I believe the aux harness is hooked up correctly. But I'm not sure about the pink wire which is the input from the remote. I hooked this wire up to the 'power lock' lead on the BCM behind the rear seat. I'm thinking this should start the truck when the lock button is depressed.
Anyway, it's not working. When I fiirst did the little programming sequence in the book, I had the rear door open. After shutting off the key (but with it in the ignition) the truck kept starting and shutting off. I hit the override and shut the door. Now if I open a door, the dash lights and heater will turn on momentarily.
In no event can I get a response from the remote other than the normal horn honking and door locking.
Where should that pink lead be connected?
Any ideas of what I'm doing wrong?
With the override switch disabled, everything seems to work as before.
Thanks!

Larry

get help i think the kit has a web site and sound like you have some colors mixed up , even just one missplaced wire could give you this trouble . My guess is that the pink wire does not belong at the bcm

Post a description of all the wire colors, what the manual says they should be hooked up to, and what you have them hooked up to.
