Default Turbo timer ... Can't use remote locking system..

I have a fet tb-206 turbo timer fitted to my 97/98 wrx,when I stop I have to lock the doors with my key,or wait x amount of minutes untill the car turns off then use the alarm remote which is a pain !! any ideas how I can use the remote whilst the engine is still running etc.
Thanks

I know how to fix it, Take the turbo timer out chuck it in the bin and your car will be fine :-)

Total waste of money

Just remove your Turbo timer(TT),TT usually screw your Alarm system.Don't use any TT and you should be all right and your car will be not robbed etc.

I had turbo timer built into my alarm system so that when I pushed the AUX button on the remote it would still run, I also had the option of cold start. It was a Clifford Concept 650.
