has anyone had the problem of their car not starting when the doors are open? i though my car wouldn't start and ended up reseting the ecu and pulling out the alarm/immobilizer checking the battery, pull apart the distributor cap, checked the spark plugs. it turned out that it was because my door was open. the car starts first time when the doors are closed. is this normal????

Personaly, if i wanted to do something liike that, there are you acc wires right on the other side of the (green ring) where your key goes: the acc wires are on a button right there so that when you put the key in it makes that beeping noise. the car cant start without that. I'd start there, but also could be done with the ignition itself. I'm used to it being a light blue wire, but may be wrong. IDK for sure on the 6gen celicas.
