Seems like its not in the remote itself but in the wiring.
good to see your nearly on top of it.

04 ST 3lt auto, not enough Mods to keep me happy, but getting there
You beat me to it,I've tried it the last 2 days ,turned off radio, switch off ignition (runs for 1 min with turbo timer ) and Walla ! It locks! So now I've just gotta work out what I can do so I havnt got to turn off radio each time ??Originally Posted by Yendor
Are you still running the original head unit or and aftermarket one?
How long has the shut down timer been installed for?
Is your electric aerial still original and functioning correctly?

IT'S an aftermarket unit with GPS,antenna is original I think and works ok,timer has been in for about 1 month,but problem was there before fitting (maybe not as bad though ? )
Try shutting down the engine manually (without using the shut down timer) with the radio on does the remote work?
If it doesn't, try fitting a blocking diode on the accessory feed to the head unit.
Tried that,and won't lock until radio off / antenna down
What did you try? the blocking diode in the accessory feed to the head unit?
Do you have an amp fitted?
While the head unit is out try running a temporary earth wire from the head unit to the negative of the battery.
Sorry,no havnt tried that yet,have tried shutting down engine manually with stereo still going and won't lock.
Ok,I picked up some diodes from jaycar today,so I put one in the power wire from ignition to the stereo?
Yep, the one that has power when the ignition key is turned on.
Then keep your fingers crossed and hope it fixes the problem.
