Purchased fortin kit evo chrt7 for a 2023 ram 1500 classic with tip key start. No instructions came with it in box. There are 2 harnesses a t harness and obd2 harness . looked thru the qustion section on this site but no instructions for a 2023 ram 1500 classic or how to connect the obd2 harness for  true plug and play, no having to tap in original wireing like in the kit description. Need updated  specific instrutions or installation video.

Wiring and programming instructions can be found on the website and also in the flash link manager when setting up the EVO-ALL.

Here is a direct link to the PDF.

Why is there an obd2 t harness with a connector (for can bus i assume) but no where on the instructions how to connect it. Could you take ingition 12v , off the ignition switch t harness itself without cutting into oem harness? And what about parking light connection is it needed or is it part of t harness. Doesnt seem plug and play like advertised without having to tap in oem wiring
Ignition will need to go where mentionned in the guide.

The OBD2 connector is not used in this setup. CAN is taken from the vehicles green starlink connector.

Parking lights is optional.
does the 2023 ram 1500 ram classic slt need the hood switch or the valet switch doesnt show on suggested installation videos with the same t harness i could find.
