Unhappy removal of remote starter...

Got one of those adatastarter1150a remote starter in my 2005 Jimmy.
About a year after I bought her, the battery was suffering a parasitic drain, I traced it to the remote power locks and just removed the fuse.
Side note the Jimmy did not come with powered locks, so the last owner put in actuators(?) I see two large relays under kicker panel.
The FOBS have not worked (cheap plastics are about as smart of a move as putting glasses on me...they just dont last) for quite some time and I am good with that.
However another "parasitic drain" is happening and since I am not using the remote starter...I figure thats the problem.
I would like to take that "made in China" out of my basic 2005 Jimmy and run stock...
hillbillyinohio....is this hard to do?
I can post pics, adatastarter does not post their install manuals...
I am pretty good with a meter...
Any help from anybody much appreciated...

New day, new approach.
The ADATA I unplug the mains, truck starts runs fine..still have a "parasitic drain"
Clarion stereo has remote, not working, anti theft, blue tooth, 6" screen.
Turned off everything manually thru settings...no more parasitic drain.
That fixes the battery drain in my 2005 Jimmy...
Hope some can find use of this post...
Good day everyone.
