2013 Toyota Tacoma cranks but doesn't start.

0 votes
I installed a Computech 2-way RF kit to my EVO-One and got everything working except that when I press the remote start: It cranks, tries to start, then dies. Almost as if the Immobilizer is still active. I tried all of the different crank time settings and all of the Tach settings but  it still won't stay on. I have The IMI connections at the ECM but I am using the IMMO connection at the OBD II not the IMO from the ECM. I tried putting the key next to the ignition barrel and it still won't start on remote start but it will start with the key. Please help, I'm almost there!

wow you need to follow install guide at the ECM OR the install guide with IMMO at obd. You are using both at the same time and will not work. Use guide 18861 ONLY

By removing the IMI connection (white-green, white-red and light blue wires) at the ECM and also removing the key sense wiring, it was able to remote start. I have two other issues: 1. When it remotes start the parking lights come on but when I shut it off with the remote the parking lights will stay on forever unless I open a door. 2. The parking lights won't flash when I lock and unlock the doors (remember, I'm using an RF kit with remotes).
