EVO-CHRT5 in 2005 Chrysler 300 starts after one lock vs 3x lock.

+1 vote
When the unit was first installed, everything seem to be operating as designed.  3x lock and the car starts.  No over past week or so, that car starts with one lock.  So when the car is exited and the the lock button is pressed, the car locks and then remote starts.

Where is the yellow/black wire from the 20-pin connector connected?

Please try to enable option D1.1 (lock, unlock, lock) Flashlink Updater-2(sold separately) and Flashlink Manager requred) which will force the evo unit to look for a "lock, unlock, lock" signals before initiating remote starting.

What needs to be understood in these cases is that the evo ONLY waits for the right signals to remote start, if by pressing the lock button the on the oem keyfob it sends multiple lock signals then the evo will see that as a command to start the vehicle.as soon as it sees 3 consecutive lock signals.

Thank you,
enabling Lock-unlock-lock will fix this. The module is recognizing three lock presses during that short period of time so it is starting the car. You can tell this by looking at the BLUE led on the module. It should be flashing once per lock press (if it flashes 3 times during that short period, then the vehicule is tripling up on the network commands. The evo thinks you actually pressed three times).  Easily solved by enabling option D1.1 so that the start sequenec is lock-unlock-lock.
Thank you!!  That makes sense and explains clearly as to why this happens and I will have option D1.1 enabled.
Hi I've experienced this too on my 07 300c thought it was a failing Fob Battery making intermittent signal then reading this the timing of locking the car maybe falls into this, my setup is (connection F standalone with T-harness)  I'm using a cellular relay on the Yellow/Black wire to earth and I've not connected the lights, all works fine

you say D1.1 programming will sort this (lock unlock lock) will this actually unlock the car? If so can I remove the 3x press options and just use my phone to trigger the remote start? And forget the fob
You can turn off C1 and leave D1 on and this will make it so that only the yellow/black will start the car not the OEM remote.
