No CAN outputs from Evo-All

Hello, Installing an Autostart 2381 remote start with an Evo-all into a 2012 Toyota Highlander Push to start, V6 engine.  I am using guide# 3621, standard install with takeover.  The Evo is set on D2D and the Autostart is set on the default setting of Xpresskit 2Way and plugged into the wider xpresskit port with D2D cable. I hardwired the tach, brake, neg door input, and GWR between the remote start and bypass modules (because of the autostart 2 way issues) After making all connections as per the instruction sheet, performed programming procedure, with the red flashing light 10x, will get the blue flashing light 10x, but will not get any yellow lights. I verified my connections but they seem correct. Upon remote starting, the vehicle will start and run normally but cannot shut off with brake pedal and cannot operate door locks while running.  I tried programming several times with no change.  Out of desperation, I even tried a different Evo-All module, with no change. I then hardwired the brake, tach, and door locks (arm/disarm-violet and brown wires) directly to vehicle from remote start. The vehicle will start and run normally, shut off with brake, door locks will now operate but will lock and then unlock the doors when attempting to lock. I removed the battery from the smart key and have no change. Is there a way I can make this work properly with the CAN system or another way to make the vehicle think that it is not running or the key is not in vehicle so I can lock the doors while running?  Thanks in advance, Mike.

And, guide No. 8491 does not help?

Yes, this is the method that I had to use for it to work properly. I could not get the "with takeover" method to work the way it should. Thanks for your reply.

You hardwired the brake from the starter to the car but when you press the brake the car does not shut off?

No. the car wasn't picking up the brake signal through data. I manually hardwired between the remote start and bypass modules for it to be able to shut off with brake. What I was trying to explain is that the Evo-all was not outputting any of the data to remote start and that when I hardwired the remote start module to vehicle the door locks would lock and then unlock again when running, as if the door was open and i was trying to lock doors.  I ended up using the "without takeover" method and was succesful.
