Questions & Answers

Hello,

I recently bought Evo start 2 for my Evo one which I have been using for more than 2 years on my Mazda cx 3 2019 with T harness. At that time I did not choose the app start option while programming the Evo one. Can some please help me where should i be connecting the Yellow wire. Does it goes into the A1. Also none of the other options like door unlock are not working. Do I have to reprogram the Evo one again. I know that the firmware should be atleast 1.21. When i push start from the app the green light on the evo start 2 is turning on but nothing is happening.

I have followed the following steps and it was not working.

Ignition ON - OFF - ON (While holding the brake?)

Press and release brake 4 times

Press and hold the Evo start button until green

Turn OFF Ignition

Thank you for reading any kind of help or suggestions is much appreciated

During 2x key programming on my 2008 Mazdaspeed:

1. Hold program button, plug in main power connector, release when LED is red.

2. Plug in main 20 pin connector and 5 pin communication (CAN) connector into fortin.

3. Cycle first key into IG-ON (2) position and wait 3 seconds -> EVO Red light turns off, yellow light turns on.

4. Remove first key -> EVO yellow light turns off, red light turns on.

5. Insert second key into IG-ON (2) position and wait 3 seconds -> EVO red light stays on.

6. remove second key and within 5 seconds press and release program button ->  After this I can get different results, but the ignition never engages on its own:

a. EVO clicks once (relay?) and red light stays on. Car alarm is armed and will not allow me to start vehicle. Unplugging main EVO power connector reverts the car alarm to functional.

b. Nothing happens, LED remains Red.

In step 8 of the guide, it says the cars ignition will turn on (does not indicate that I should turn it on). This does NOT occur.

However, If I (within the 5 seconds after pressing program button) insert the key into IG-ON(2), The red light blinks 10 times, then the blue light blinks rapidly. Then they both go off, the unit clicks (relay) and only the yellow light stays on solid. This is what the guide says should happen without me turning on the ignition.

More info:

Trunk (I have hatchback) and hood safety switch are not connected.

I am programming the OEM remote for 3x lock remote starting.

Firmware updated November 4th with:

- Unit options: C1 and D2

- Function 8-5, 34-3

All wires pass continuity check between EVO and vehicle connector pin.

Installed EVO-ONE with THAR-ONE-MAZ3 following Guide 68261 on a 2018 CX-5 automatic. All options left default except those specified in the install guide (set C1, set D2, and function 38 mode 2.) Remote start works, however, when I get in the car and drive off, cruise control will not set. I can enable cruise control mode but it will not set. If I start the car normally, however, the cruise control works as expected. So it is only after a remote start that the cruise control will not engage.
