RE: 2000 3.0L alarm or immobilizer? (remote start insall question)
 

I didn't have a spare key hidden under the dash. Finch, this is for the starter, not the alarm so a standard alarm wouldn't need the immobilizer bypass.

To the OP: When you press the brake, the auto-starter and everything that is by-passed for it is released. If the key is in and on, the car will stay on. If the key is not in position, the car shuts off and the immobilizer is re-engaged.

RE: 2000 3.0L alarm or immobilizer? (remote start insall question)
 

Did you install the starter or did you have it done? are you sure there isn't a spare key hidden inside a plastic box under the dash? (if you had somebody else install it)

what make/model of starter do you have?

Had .... the Accord is dead ..... well, it probably has a new tranny by now, but it's not mine. I had a shop install it and I know there isn't a key in there because I never gave them a key to put in there and there wasn't some ridiculous charge for it on the install. I believe that it was an AutoMate, but I'm not sure.

Auto-starters and alarms tie into too many systems and have too much risk of causing problems for me to install it myself. Even if I can do work myself, there are certain things that I'm looking for someone else to be liable for. The alarm/auto-starter is one of those items. I got a lifetime warranty on the unit and installation.
