Thanks for the replies. I'll check around the transceiver wires further. I did find that the ground wire that goes up to the lock tumbler wasn't making good contact. Fixed that and thought I had it whooped. Nope. I did the 30 seconds key on in run position. That worked once a few months ago. I'll look around again. Gotta be something simple because sometimes it works like a charm. If I could just get it to work all the time or disable it......

I know a guy here in central florida that you can send the computer and he turns it off on the bench and sends it back, much cheaper than buying the hand held
