Why does my lock button on remote not work.

0 votes
I have the Evo One installed with the thar-one-nis2 harness in a 2013 Nissan Armada. Remotes are RF642W.

I have had all different settings and achieved all different results. With the current settings, I can remote start. I can unlock doors. I can now use IDLE mode. I can also now remote start, unlock the doors, open the door, and the unit does not shut down.

When I first programmed the current settings, I was able to lock the doors, but now I can't. Wiring was not changed or touched. After changing settings I have had this before when something would work one time, but later not.

So, currently, the features I can't do are 1) lock the doors with the remote.  and 2) open the tailgate.

I never was able to open the tailgate. I am assuming the tailgate should open through the CAN bus.

 

PS. Some additional stuff.

At times, the lock button is now working. When I lock with the Fortin remote, the blue light on the antenna blinks on and off all the time. Turns off when door is unlocked. If I lock with the Nissan remote, the blue antenna light does not blink.

When headlights are on auto, they do not shut down after auto start. Dark blue wire is hooked up to the driver door switch at terminal #47 of the BCM. This is a sky blue wire that is for the front LH door switch. No voltage when the door is open, Battery voltage when the door is shut according to the BCM control modual information sheet. While the auto headlights are on, when a lock or unlock command is given, the dash lights flicker several times. If you turn off the auto lights, the dash lights do not flicker.

The autolight will shutdown about 1 minute after shutdown.

The lock wire is connected at the bcm, verify this connection, this is the only reason I can see your lock wouldn't work.

The tailgate is NOT controlled over canbus, you will have to manually connect it at the tailgate switch.
