OEM remote does not work while remote started

Question

2008 VW GTI W/ DSG Transmission. Installed EVO-ALL w/ CrimeStopper Revo 1.1 external RF kit. I am also using Flash Link Updater 2 w/ Flash Link Manager v3.61 (which I do not see anymore on the fortin website). On the Fortin website for my vehicle, it says on Installation Notes "OEM REMOTES NOW FUNCTIONAL WHILE REMOTE STARTED" but when I remote start the vehicle with my Revo 1.1, my OEM remote does not unlock the vehicle. This forces me to turn off the remote start with the Revo 1.1 key then switch over to my OEM remote and unlock. Are there specific options I have to choose in Flash Link Manager?

Answer 1

What installation guide did you follow?

What is the service number to the module?

does the blue led flash when you press lock on the oem remote when the vehicle is running.

No it does not.

try lowering the firmware to 75.21 and re program the module.

Answer 3

Firmware 75.21 is not listed. Flash Link Manager lists 75.20, 75.22, 75.23.

Comments

Well I downgraded to 75.22 (since that was the next closest available) and I still cannot operate my OEM remote while the vehicle is remote started.

What did you hook up the grey and grey/black from the evo all to in the vehicle?

Also if you pulse purple or purple/white from the 20 pin connector with a ground when the vehicle is running does the blue led on the evo flash and also do the door locks function?

Answer 4

Hi !

Is your problem solved?

I cant find solution in Evo settings, but I know how to fix it with VCDS (Vag Com)
