Questions & Answers

I have the Fortin Chrt6 Evo All. I have it wired up correctly. It works but my dash starts to go nuts. My fuel light comes on even with a full tank, the dash lighting flickers. My check engine, air bag, tpms, traction control lights all come on. It’s just going haywire. When I unplug the unit it’s fine and everything is normal. Why is this happening?!?!  It’s cold where I live and would be nice to use this without the fear of a n airbag going off randomly. Also, my truck is a 2014 Ram 1500 5.7l Hemi with tip start. These are the directions I followed.

Fortin, what are the proper channels I can use to esclate this matter further. It has been several months of back and forth with no progress. I feel the only other way to get through to you would be by sharing my emabrising expierence on social media platforms. Before I do let me ask one last time...please help. 

Best,

I have been unsuccessful on getting the Fortin autostart to program or work.  For some reason, while hooked up, the module doesn't have a constant, always on power source and doesn't turn on until the key is inserted and turned into the On/Run position. I have checked all of my fuses and I can't find any issues.  I have a few extra fuse locations in my truck, so can I splice a new hot wire into the red, hot wire to provide a constant power source, or will that cause problems with the ignition?  What amp fuse do I need to do this?

First I would like to know if my key(FOB) will work with the EVO all. I got the EVO-CHRT4, does that come preprogrammed for a 2012 Ram 1500, or do i need to flash it?  Do I need a hood pin?  I connected the yellow cable which fixed my first issue of no blinking blue light.  The doors will lock and unlock, but no start on 3x lock.  I saw on one forum to try a lock-unlock-lock sequence.  I have not tried that yet.  Any help is greatly appreciated.
