2007 Ram 2500 Diesel Manual Transmission nothing happens

Question

i have a 2007 2500 diesel with a manual transmission, i have the OEM key programmed but when i go to Remote start, all i hear is a relay click 3 times...also everytime i press the lock button on the key, the blue light is lighting up....

 

i have to make the comment, that when i program the EVO-ONE on flashlink, the "settings" that are saved on the EVO-ONE shows different than the ones i have programmed/saved. is there a "lockout" or something that i must do?

for instance: i saved the turbo timer to be on for 4 minutes on the fortin flashlink, when i check to see "current settings," it shows that it is off. and so forth.

Answer 1

The installation guide is only showing wiring for automatic transmission. Did you wire in the clutch bypass ?

The clutch signal is a yellow/dark blue wire at the clutch switch. Negative trigger. You can use the small white wire in the 20-pin connector for that.

 

Second, manual transsmission vehicle require that you do Ready Mode in order to be able to remote start. Ready mode is what tells the unit, car is in neutral. https://fortin.ca/en/download/87611/87611.pdf

Enable option 33.2 since you are using the oem remote and follow option 3 in the guide above. Since you have a turbo timer enabled, vehicle would run 4 minutes and not shutdown on door close like mentionned.

Comments

i did not wire in the clutch bypass, i will do that promptly..also, i have already set up ready mode to be what option 3 is in the PDF you linked.

i will try it and see what happens THANK YOU

You mention to connect the white wire on the 20 pin connector to the clutch. But he fortin wire diagrams shows this wire to be the Trunk Status wire at position A5. Is this correct? Is there any documenation explaining wiring an evo all for a manual truck like this one?

That sounds like you have an EVO-ALL. The EVO-ALL cannot be used on manual transmission vehicles as a stand alone remote starter. EVO-ONE is required.

 

Or if you see white as trunk status, it could just be you may be looking at the wrong guide.
