Questions & Answers

I am about to install EVO-ALL for Standalone installation ( without the T-Harness ) for a nissan Qashqai ( Rogue sport in CA ) with push to start ( Guide # 83931 )

S/N of my EVO-All is : 001A07026604

I have three main questions so i can complete the installation :

1- Fuse rating for the power supply of the module ( between B4 pin and 12v battery )

2- Diodes direction is confusing me as the Ignition A4 pin is an output pin which means that Current should flow from EVOALL to the car BCM pins while the Diodes direction says the opposite  ( cathode at top meaning current flows from BCM pins to EVOALL )

3- Which is more recommended for a way of control to disable remote starting when needed ( i cannot have Alarm functions beside remote starting for this vehcile ) where 2nd option would completey shut off the power to EVOALL :

- Adding ON/OFF switch on the Hood Pin A8( connecting other switch end to ground )

- Adding ON/OFF switch on B4 pin on the same line of the Fuse ( connecting other switch end to ground )

I installed evo one on my 2011 Nissan Rogue and been using it for 3 weeks from now. I added some DEI voice alarm module but it didn't work because the PIN A8 (Ground-when-armed Dark Blue wire) has a constant ground even the system has been disarmed.

I used an LED Bulb to test PIN A8 by connecting the negative wire of the LED BULB on the PIN A8 wire and the positive wire on the battery and the LED BULB lights up both on Disarmed and Armed.

And because the PIN A8 is defective, I temporarily removed it on the driver side door pin wire because when I close the driver door, the module reads it as open (remote start will not work) and when I open the driver door, the system reads it as closed (remote start will work).

Is there any way to fix the issue on my evo one.

Just figured I would post this as I have often been asked...

" How do I know/how to test if my vehicle has an OEM alarm?"

Really simple to check, perform the following test:.

1- Put down the drivers window.

2- Ensure all doors are closed, including the hood and trunk.

3- Lock the vehicle using the OEM remote.

4- Wait between 45-60 seconds after you have locked the vehicle to allow the system to arm itself.

5- Once you have waited the time period reach inside the drivers door and open the drivers door from the inside handle. (basically replicating someone trying to steal your belongings/vehicle).

6- At this point your alarm will either go off or it won't, answering the question if your vehicle is equipped with a factory alarm!

Side note: good way to also test to see if your vehicle has a factory hood pin that is part of the alarm system is to do the above test but instead of opening the door first, reach in and pull the hood release latch. (useful on newer Mazda vehicles with factory hood pins that are part of the OEM alarm). If no alarm goes off, then open the drivers door. If the alarm goes off when you open the drivers door and not when you open the hood. Then this answers your question if the factory hood pin is part of the alarm system.
