#144579 When you wire it up w/out the remote start satellite, the alarm brain doesn't have an ignition input. So you need to plug in the ribbon cable that normally goes to the satellite, and cut the little yellow wire out and run that to your black/yellow ignition wire.

Much easier/better to get a non-remote start alarm like the Viper 5001. The 791XV is now several generations old.

You can disable the passive arming feature in the programming menu.
