hav you used the remote starter successfully in the past? or is this your first time?
Alarm/ignition system problem (kind of long)
So, for the second day in a row, my car (92 Legend Coupe) won't stay on. I basically activate the remote start, get in the car, put the key in the ignition, press the brake to shift into gear, and the car dies. I try to start it regularly, and it starts, but as soon as I let go of the key, and it moves back to the "on" position, the car dies. I finally decided to call Prestige/Audiovox for help. I have an APS750 remote start/security system. Of course, they say it's something with my car, and not the remote start.
Since I'm trying to isolate all issues, could it even be the car? I was thinking there would be some way for it to be an ignition problem, but I don't know where to start. If any of you have some ideas, they would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I've had the car for a month, and best believe, every time I went to show the car, or drive it, I used the remote start. LOL. I've even let it run the 10 minute timer on it out, started it again, and drove it off. I cannot think of what it could be.
OK, I've found out that it's the car. I turn the key to on, and no lights come on the dash. I turn it halfway to start, and the lights come one. I turn it all the way to start, and the car starts, and will continue to run as long as I hold the key, but as soon as the key is released, the car shuts off. Any ideas?
yup, i had this problem. its ure master key cylinder for your ignition.i got mine at the dealer for 180 ish (no installation). i think someone said that you can acualy just buy the electronic part(which is at the back where the wire comes out) but not sure.KazeSupra said:OK, I've found out that it's the car.
