Hello,

 

Try turning off A13 and turning on D6 and re test.

 

Please observe the brakes lights when testing and let me know if they are turning on at remote start.

 

Best regards.

With D6 turned on, the car doesn't even turn on. Car unlocks and relocks as per OEM security, instrument cluster never illuminates.

Break lights don't illuminate.

Turned off D6 and tested again, original symptoms came back, car turns on, no crank, no break lights. Shift lock light on dash illuminated.

When you remote start the vehicle, if you test the yellow/red wire from the evo do you get any voltage coming out of it?

0 voltage on yellow/red line when testing

Ok that explains some of the issue, next step would be to master reset the unit: https://cdn.fortin.ca/en/download/61931/61931.pdf re flash 64.06, re enable vehicle specific options, then re program the unit to the vehicle again and re test.

 

Best regards.
