CANNOT GET EVO ONE TO WORK IN OLDER DODGE DAKOTA

Question

Tried installing an EVO ONE module in my 1993 Dodge Dakota. Manual Transmission. Got all necessary wires connected, module will power on, and allow me to program one remote. Afterwards, it will not respond to anything. The antenna LED will not come on, the module lights would alternate red, yellow, blue. Got the flashlink, updated the module, same thing. At a loss, any help appreciated...

Answer 1

Hello,

Evo-One is not supported on this vehicle when equipped with manual transmission because the module has no way of reading the tach signal.

You will need an analog remote starter that supports manual transmission and has an analog tach wire.

Best regards.

Oh, I was under the impression the system didn't need a tach wire, looking at the tachless programming instructions. My diagram from WireColor never specified that the tach wire was required either. Kinda bummed, your module is advertised as good for most vehicles... would have been good to see a note anywhere stating certain vehicles like my truck would not be compatible.
