2017 Ram 1500 Start briefly then shut off

0 votes
Installed the fortin evo all with THAR-CHR7 and a 5706v w2w. Programmed according to instructions. Everything is working properly except I can't get the vehicle to remote start every single time. It starts and shuts off right after starting. Sometimes the truck will remote start and stay running like it should but not everytime. What could be wrong? Is it the firmware version?

Hello,

Sounds like your starter might not be managing tach properly. Could try programming tach between the 2 units.

You could also place the evo in stand alone (options c1 and d1) to isolate where the issue maybe coming from.

Best regards.

The standalone option is working just fine. The issue is just when the 5706v sends the remote start signal. So I need to find a separate tach signal for the 5706v? It's currently w2w to the evo all
If stand alone works as intended this confirms the evo-all is working as it should and that the issue is coming from the 5706v. You could perhaps reach out to them as to why the unit is not working as intded.

 

Also pleas note the drk blue wire on the evo-all in stand alone becomes a hood input, so this would cancel out remote start if it is in stand alone and gets a ground.

 

Best regards.
