2013 Jeep Wrangler, Standard key (no OEM remote),Manual Trans, EVO-One-942 kit, THAR-CHR5, will not remote start after ready mode entered.  I have followed install guide #63811.  

After successfully entering ready mode and trying to remote start it will power the jeep up like itis trying to start it but nothing happens.  After reading a few of the other question/answers it seems that a clutch bypass relay may need to be installed?    I have found some information on wirecolor.com for the wiring of this.  Does this relay connect back to the EVO-One somewhere?  Installing a clutch bypass relay is not mentioned anywhere in the #63811 install guide.  Perhaps you guys should include that in the guide.

Hello,

Guide 63811 is for for automatic tranmission.

Yes a clutch bypass will need to be wired in, you can use the drk blue ground out wire on the 20 pin of the evo-one to trigger the realy you will need to add for the clutch bypass.

Best regards

Can you give me a link to the install guide for a manual transmission because I looked all over Fortin's website and could not find one mentioned anywhere.
Fortin does not make manual transmission installation guides for the most part, normally you would follow the automatic guide and then it is the installers responsibility to add/wire in the additional connections required for manual transmission vehicles.
Got it all wired up and it works.  For anyone looking to do this its a lot easier to access the wires for the clutch switch if you remove the horn, and relays above it.  Then to unplug the connector from the clutch master find a small flat blade screwdriver and push it in between the side of the jeep and connectorand turn a little to press the release.  You will see what I mean when you get in there.

Here is the wirind diagram for the relay:
