Hey all,
I have a 2008 Dodge Ram. I had an EVO-ALL and CHRT5 T-harness installed and working for a few weeks as a stand-alone. I then added a Crimestopper LC4 wired through as a DataLink connection. I followed the diagram exactly, connecting the constant 12V and the ignition wires, as well as one other wire that was required for my application (purple wire from T-harness to green/red from EVO-ALL 20-pin). Those two were actually necessary for the stand-alone function so they were done anyway.
I got the Crimestopper working, it would unlock and lock my doors and start the truck, but then shut the truck off after about 5 seconds. I called Fortin to ask about this and was told to re-flash the EVO-ALL and take it out of stand alone mode because the wiring differences made it so that the EVo now saw the hood pin circuit showing an open hood, which shut the truck down. Made sense to me! I changed the EVO-ALL flash programming and turned off D1, stand alone mode.
Hooked it back up (reporgrammed the EVO-ALL to the truck just to be sure) and now the EVO-ALL is totally non-responsive. Even when locking/unlocking the truck with the OEM remote, no orange light on theEVO (which it did before). When I press the lock and unlock buttons on the Crimestopper, I hear the Crimestopper unit clicking and the LED is blinking like it should, it's trying to tell the EVO what to do but the EVO isn't listening.
Fortin tried telling me that I needed to do more to connect the Crimestopper but that's not correct. It should work just the way I have it, through the Data Link. The EVO has power, if I go thorugh the programming sequence the blue light comes on and blinks when it should...I can program it to the truck just fine. It's just not seeing the Crimestopper anymore! I'm thinking of changing it back to stand-alone and just grounding the hoodpin wire to see if I can get it to work that way.
I ran out of time today to mess with it anymore, but I am beyond frustrated.
My question is, should I go in and adjust anything in the EVO-ALL programming? Does anyone have any ideas?
