All the interior lights blink sporadically and at random, even when the car is shut off. The tail lights hardly ever shut off. Once in a while they go off by themselves, but most of the time, i have to lift on the brake pedal for them to go off. However, now they won't turn off at all, causing the battery to be drained constantly. Has anyone ever had a problem like this before with a chrysler, or any other car for that matter?
Thanks!

Take it back to the installer of the remote start---something not wired up correctly maybe. Brake light problem sounds like a bad or misadjusted brake switch by the pedal which is also used to cancel the remote start feature when you get in the car as a deterrent to someone taking your car while in remote start mode.
The12volt.com has info and message boards for these types of problems.

You need to bring the car back to whoever was the installer of the auto-starter. It appears as though they mismatched some of the wiring and must look for the problem that they caused. It didn't just happen, it's their fault....do not, I repeat, do not!!, let them try to tell you otherwise. Wiring in a car is very specific, and everything is connected to something else.
Just think of your car having a heart and a brain, when those blood vessels (wires) are redirected, they tend to lead to adverse effects. You are experiencing these ill effects now.
The problem needs to be diagnosed by a professional, like a doctor, except with cars, they are known as MASTER Mechanics. They know what's going on.
Chances are, you have a car that had an alarm system, factory installed. When you had this other system put in, the system had to be changed, to allow remote starting. all of this is done electronically. If that is the case, which it, no doubt, is. Then the problem is in that system that was changed. Simple but difficult to diagnose. They need to test all circuitry to determine where the problem is coming from.
That's it, now it's up to you to go back to the installers and do some polite screaming, if you are met with resistance, scream louder.
If, at that point, you get no satisfaction, go to the better business bureau, the State Attorney General, the State Licensing Bureau etc.
Good Luck! Rick

Remote starters are nothing but trouble,these newer vehicles run more then accessory off a single wire then you add a remote starter and you are asking for nothing but trouble.

300M's have a bad problem with computer modules. I lost two of the three and decided I had enough - I traded.
Check your computer modules - if you have high mileage 60K or more that could be the culprint.
