Hello.

I have an Audi A3 2016 PTS that has an EVO-ALL V7 installed through a THAR-VW1 harness and it all woked seamless for months, with very minor glitces.

In while AC maitenance; namely the front door air actuator, I had to remove the imstruments cluster to have more room to work. It was a major pain, but I got it done.

Then I decided to check for a newer suggested firmware of my EVO-ALL and found v64.09, from v64.05 I was currently using.

The Cluster removal happened early in my project and only about 7 hours later the car was all reassembebled with some with some expected DTCs present, that were easily cleared to 0 DTC. When installed, the cluster was 100% operaciotnal, as everything else in the car - I only had to ajust it's clock .

But EVO-ALL was dead.

I came to the conclusion that the unit was not programmed any more in the car, so Idecided to try re-programming it all over again, but it keeps on failling on step 13: The LEDs keep flashing in 5x groups.

And this troubleeshooting guide says this is Cluster Protection Mode.

I don't see any issues or error message in he cluster, or in the infotaiment system.

I already left the car with the battery ON for 20+ minutes, but the issue persists.

I tried flashing back the version I had before, and also a master reset, but the 5x RED is always the final result.

How can I fix this situation??

Can I get a hand please?

Hello.

I successfully installed an EVO-ALL with a THAR-VW1 and the TB-VW, it is running the firmware suggested by the FLASH LINK MANAGER for the car - which is not the latest.

I can remote start the car with 3x Lock on the OEM fob, but when I do so, the keyless entry does not work anymore, I have to press the Unlock button in the fob to open the door.

Is this by design or I need to fix something in my installation?

Thanks,

Cleber.
