Is the Driver door pin connection required for 2008 Escape

Question

Installed Standalone.  Did not make the Driver door pin connection.  At end of programming sequence the ignition does not turn on while holding the programming button.  I can hear the fuel pump activing but no igntiion.  Is this a programming problem or is the door pin connection required ?

Answer 1

door pin connection is used for shutting off the radio after remote start shutdown.

are you using a t-harness? double check connections for Ignition/keysense and accessory

Comments

Yes, using a t-harness.  Checked connection on 4 plugs.  3 connections good between 20 pin and harness.   Also verified can hi & low connection.  All good.  I am using the program sequence in Guide 32171.  Is it possible a different programming guide should be used.
