connecting the wires A1 and A16

0 votes

I have ordered evo-all unit and connected it as stated at the guide Guide # 97611 page 5/13 (wire-to-wire). After I finished the connections and the programing, and finally connected the unit to the flashlike lite for CRYPTUR. Everything was going-on according to the steps in the guide without any problem. Then I connected the unit back to my car, and I remotly started my car by pressing the lock botton three times, and everthing was good until now, but then I noticed the following:

1- the secondary ligths and the tail ligths of the car become on even thought the ligth switch was on (off state), and the head lights never work when I dial the switch to the low beam and high beam state.

2-After I started the car remotely and I get inside the car and I press the push-to-start button of the car to shut the engin off, it shuts off then re-start again without any action from me, but if I open the door after that it shut the engin off.

3- If I press the lock button of the keyfob three times after I was started the car remotely, it shut engine off normally without re-starting again like what happened with me when I shut it off by the push-to-start button of the car.

4- I followed the wiring connection step by step, but I didn't connect only A1 and A16 wires to any where they still lose, do I need to connect them and where?

My unit SN:001A07283796,

Take into consideration, that I reseted it, because it was set to chevy equinox, then I set it to my car ( 2020 dodge journey). furthermore, I set the connection type to standard connection then I chose wire-to-wire , and for the alarm system I chose (built-in-alarm)

2-After I started the car remotely and I get inside the car and I press the push-to-start button of the car to shut the engin off, it shuts off then re-start again without any action from me, but if I open the door after that it shut the engin off.

The proper way for takeover to work is the following.

  1. All keys must be OUT of the vehicle
  2. All doors must be closed
  3. Remote start vehicle
  4. Unlock the doors with the remote
  5. Get in and press the PTS once then press on the brake

 

3- If I press the lock button of the keyfob three times after I was started the car remotely, it shut engine off normally without re-starting again like what happened with me when I shut it off by the push-to-start button of the car.

Yes. That is normal

 

4- I followed the wiring connection step by step, but I didn't connect only A1 and A16 wires to any where they still lose, do I need to connect them and where?

A1 and A16 not required

 

1- the secondary ligths and the tail ligths of the car become on even thought the ligth switch was on (off state), and the head lights never work when I dial the switch to the low beam and high beam state.

If the Parking Light wiring was done, verify that you have the proper resistor. This is a MUX circuit. A wrong resistor will cause odd things to happen. Otherwise, remove the connection.

Thanks a lot, I will folow that.

just regarding your reply:

  2. All doors must be closed
  3. Remote start vehicle
  4. Unlock the doors with the remote
  5. Get in and press the PTS once then press on the brake

if I follow these steps and press the PTS, the car will shut engine off and then re-start again directly. But if you mean press the brake then the PTS, I didn"t do that>

for your other advise:

between which points can I check the mentioned resistor and how much should be? and is it possible to add a resistor to modify the value?

also, what is the function of this connection?

finally, when I set up the unit, there was a part for the connection type, what I should choose to get the job done properly? take into consideration that I do have 2020 Dodge journey, and I am doing wire-to-wire connection
