2015 Mazda 3 Grand Touring Hatchback, push-to-start, smart key, manual transmission.  I cannot get the module to start the vehicle with 3x OEM remote lock.  I've followed the instructions for manual transmission in Guide #68261.  My EVO-ONE serial number is 002B04 298695 and it is dated 09/2022.  Here's what I've done:

EVO-ONE flashed with Firmware 85.12. Using T-Harness. Yellow loop wire NOT cut White wire labeled "for manual transmission only" on the T-harness is connected to the white wire coming out of the 20-pin connector.  These wires are just butt spliced with no other connection. DCryptor process to enable key bypass appears to have been successful from all FlashLink software messages. Remote starter option 33 is set to mode 2 for foot brake - handbrake - release foot brake Ready Mode process. Remote starter option 38 is set to mode 2 to enable 3x lock with OEM remote. Bypass option C1 is on for OEM remote status monitoring. I did not install a hood pin.  I am not concerned about remote starting while the hood is open.  Bypass option A11 is set to "off." Bypass options for foot brake, hand brake, door output monitoring are all set to "on."

To enable ready mode, I depress the foot brake, engage the hand brake, release the footbrake, and exit the car while it is still running without pushing the start button.  The car just sits there and runs, nothing happens when I close the door and walk so that the smart key is out of range.  I also tried doing this with shutting the car off before exiting and was still not able to remote start the vehicle.

When I press the lock button on the OEM remote, the blue LED on the EVO-ONE blinks indicating it is reading the CAN bus messages.

When the car is running, the yellow LED on the EVO-ONE is steadily illuminated.

At no point does the red LED on the EVO-ONE illuminate.  It does not turn on after pressing the OEM remote lock button 3x.

When I press the OEM lock button 3x after the above ready mode process, absolutely nothing happens except the car horn beeps on the 2nd and 3rd presses like it normally would.

Thanks in advance for your help.

My car loses the Istop function when the remote starts and press the start button to continue

Hi,

I have a 2014 mazda 3 automatic push to start, and I want to have the oem remote start using the evo all stand-alone with t-harness. I've followed this guide: https://cdn.fortin.ca/download/62681/evo-all_ig_tsa_bi_maz1-3_pts_2014-2017_door_v2_e_62681.pdf and I've successfully programmed the module per the guide, the last step was the rapid blue light flashing and that did happen (the only thing I didn't do was set up the parking lights since it was optional). Only the remote start function doesn't work. I've played with the settings a bit and always have c1 and d1 on, I just tried turning D3 on and it still didn't work. I also have D2 on, and when I do the 3x lock, the yellow hazards flash on my car 3 times, and then the door unlocks like D2 states, and then after a few seconds they flash again 3 times, and the door unlocks... and then nothing happens after that. Am I missing settings or anything else simple? Or anything else?

I had another evo-all with tharness that I master-reset after finishing the programming, and then eventually called tech support and they said that evo all would no longer work with my car because I did that. 

One other note: only one of my keys seems to work with the unit; its the only one that will make the blue led flash when I press the lock button that is. From other questions it seems the other key is a clone and won't work with the evo all or something, which I'm fine with, as long as I can get the original one to actually start my car.

When comparing EVO MAZT1 with EVO ALL it shows that Takeover is not available with MAZT1.

Is it the T-harness that conflects with the feature? and will that apply when using EVO ONE with THAR-MAZ1 in 2017 Mazda CX9 Push to start with 3x OEM remote start?

If it does, is there any solution for the mentioned vehicle where OEM remote start, takeover and plug & play is a must for me.

In regards to the wire guide for the 2003 Mazda Tribute, it says the CAN wires are black and white. There are no black and white wires on the ODBII connector.  

In regards to Regular Installation http://fortin.ca/download/29661/evo-one_mazda_2-3-5-cx-tribute_revb20150310.pdf  the instal guide says to use the gray/orange at pin 3 and violet/orange at pin 11, but there are no wires of that color AND no wires at pin 3 and 11.  The other Mazda makes say to use pins 6 and 14 (no colors listed) but there are no wires there either. My service manual shows connections on ODBII for J1850 at 2 and 10, but that didn't work.

Without the CAN connections I can not use the factory remotes, which the guide says I can use.  

Looking at the 2003 Ford Escape Regular Installation w/o Can-Bus http://fortin.ca/download/22301/evo-one_ig_reg_bi_for_b_22301.pdf (same car with Ford name) it shows that I cannot use the factory remote and that there is no CAN connections to be made.  

Also, the Mazda instal guide shows cutting some "driver door trigger" wire that is not identified anywhere. The Escape guide does not show doing this.  Since the Escape guide recognized the absence of the CAN connections, I followed that one and bought an RF kit to use with it.  Everything works exactly as I had hoped (except for not using factory remotes).

I am posting this for anyone else who is trying to instal the EVO-ONE in a 2007 or earlier Tribute, so they don't waste a day trying to track down connections that don't exist or don't work.

I didn't see anywhere to post this on Fortin.ca, if there is please post this there.

Thanks
