3 red flash is vehicle unknown. You will want to go over your CAN2 connections. 

Also, reset the evo. https://fortin.ca/en/qa/50193/faq-how-do-i-reset-my-evo-all?show=50193#q50193

What voltage should I be getting at the CAN2 connections?

I checked the resistance from the OBD to the CAN2 connector. Everything is great there - no resistance.

I reset the EVO as directed in your link but I still get the triple red flash at the end of step 6. Am I doing something wrone in flash link? Everything there shows my exact vehicle. I ran pro version and saved the suggested options. What am I missing here?
it would be an even split of 5Vdc. Meter them directly at the evo connector to ensure connections are good. And, check that the wires are simply not reversed.

Voltage there is good. Split 5v. Still getting the 3 red flashes. Am I doing something wrong in flash link? Everything there shows my exact vehicle. I ran pro version and saved the suggested options. What am I missing here?
