but makes me think that he didn't know how to fix mine correctly, and maybe i should have it checked by someone else.

thanks for any info you can help me with.
It was DSI Mobile Electronics in Laurel MD. Unfortunately they closed within the past year or so after being open 20+ years. They weren't cheap, but definitely knew installing alarms and remote start.
