Vehicle shuts down when door is opened with INT-SL using 2-way data-link.

Symptom

The remote-starter shuts down whenever the door is opened. The remote-starter responds with a foot-brake shut-down code.


Cause

The INT-SL is sending a foot-brake status through the 2-way data-link to the remote-starter whenever the door is opened. This only applies to some GM vehicles, not all.


Solution

Ground the green wire from the INT-SL and connect the foot-brake output directly to the remote-starter. When the green wire is grounded it will not send the foot-brake status through 2-way data-link to the remote-starter.
