Hello, 

When pressing the remote start button on the RFK942 key fob, the remote start does not always activate. When this does not happen, the car behaves differently: the marker lights come on along with the low beam headlights for a couple of seconds, then everything goes off. However, when the remote start command is successful, the low beams do not activate, the turn signals come on for half a second, followed by the marker lights. Additionally, there seems to be a door lock click, then the engine starts, which can be seen in the video. https://youtube.com/shorts/B6o0cWfPQQo

Remote start with the factory key, activated by three presses on the lock button, does not cause any issues with the remote start.

The flash-link 4 has version 5 firmware, vr. 4.08. An additional impact sensor and siren are installed.

There is also an issue where if the car is armed or started with remote start, if the trunk door is opened with a sweeping motion from below (via the sensor), the siren starts making noise. If opened with the button on the door, everything is okay.

Thank you for your help!

This is driving me crazy... It works and then it does not... Need some help please.

Everything is connected per instructions (Guide # 24871), except; I had to disconnect the (A8 dk. blue) to Driver Door pin, as it left the Door ajar on constantly. 

The Yellow loop has been cut on the fortin unit.

I saw a couple of other manufacturers have a T-Harness that works with the 2008 Focus, but not Fortin's.  I also noticed that the FORT1 is compatible with the 2008 Taurus.  So I pulled up the install sheets:

https://fortin.ca/download/95201/EVO-ALL_IG_RTS_BI_FOR-TAURUS-2008-2010_KEY40bits_A_95201.pdf

The ignition connectors appear to be the same form factor and the same pinouts, but different wire colors.  Just wondering if someone could perhaps review this and see if this would change the install options at all?  Like using the THAR-FOR1 with the EVO-ONE?  Or possibly being able to use the EVO-FORT1 or FORT4?

I do see that the Focus install has a Disarm wire connection that is not present on the others.  The other guide for reference is here

Appreciate it!

Hi,

Im having trouble getting Evo-one to go pairing/programming mode to re add Omegalink remote which stopped working. It worked beginning of the year, but not anymore.

What I have tried:

Valet Switch

Ign on. Hold valet switch until red led flashesPress 5x. Led flashes everytimePress 1x brake pedal. Led flashes once

I did change settings on tack time because with cold weather my car wouldnt startFor omega correct firmware 0.44 is on Evo

I installed a Fortin Evo One in a 2009 Lexus IS250. I’m pretty confident that I have connnected all the right wires. The unit seemed to program right with the red light flashes and then blue flashes..etc.

So my concern is if I really need to use the optional module for the door locks? My plan was to use the OEM remote, but the remote starter is not activating with 3x lock. Do I really need the additional door lock module for this to work? Also, on the programming side, if I go to “wizard” mode it only shows “no oem remote” and can only pick an RF kit. If I go to “pro” mode, I’m able to pick 3x lock….etc. I’m worried that this is causing me an issue also. Can someone please help? Thanks!

Hello, I have an EVO-ONE-942 installed in our Mazda CX5 2016, and it's been working for well over a year now.

Recently I have noticed extra beeps after querying the remote starter by double pressing the "+ " button,
I have made a recording, first you hear the button twice, then the locked beep and then 2 chirps afterwards.

If anyone has any information please let me know, thank you!
