2013 F150 will not shut off after key is turned on and back off within 15 minutes

+1 vote
I installed the evo-fort1 in my 2013 ford f150 tonight I really only care about the remote start feature. It starts fine with the 3X lock and will turn off with it as well.  one concern is that I can get inside the truck and drive it without the key when it was started with the remote start ( I would assume only for 15 minutes) I would like to figure out how to have it shut off when the brake is pressed or not let you put it in drive at least. My 2nd and main concern is that when I start it via remote start get inside, if I put the key in the ignition and turn it to the run position and try to turn it off after 5 minutes or so it will not turn off and I have to do the 3X lock to turn it off or wait till after the 15 minute runtime.   I followed a youtube video from an installer that only connected the can high and can low which is what I did for now.  When I programmed it using the flash link did I turn on or off a certain setting? I believe I had on remote start, with keybypass?  what correct settings should I have on

Do you have option A7 turned on (foot brake monitoring)?  I accidentally togged it off when I first installed an EVO-ONE on a 2010 F-150, and experienced similar problems.  Once I turned it back on, the remote start worked as it should, and turned off when the brake pedal was pushed down.

Also, it might be helpful to the Fortin support folks if you provide the service number for your EVO-FORT1.  They can look up the exact settings on your EVO with the service number and this could be helpful for diagnosing the problem you're having.

Hope this helps,
