Evo One can't Program Compustar G9 2 way

Tue, 17 Jan 2017 10:17:21 +0000

I have an EVO ONE which i installed in my 2016 Tucson with the T harness. The wiring was minimal and straight forward, so I know it's all correct. It's just 4 CANbus wires, parking lights, horn, and ignition. The dealer I bought it from programmed it for a Revo 1.1(fortin2) but I couldn't get that to work. I followed the procedure for the valet button and brake pedal, the car responds and flashes the lights when it's supposed to, but wouldn't respond when pressing the start button on the Revo. So I sent those remotes back to the dealer to be replaced.

While waiting for the replacement remotes, I was at best buy and spotted the compustar 2 way system (RF-2WG9-SP). I bought it and ordered the flashlink2 unit online. First, before the flashlink arrived, I swapped the 4 pin wires and programmed the remotes with the EVO ONE still set to fortin2 and firmware 1.21, and the compustar remotes WORKED. I could Lock/Unlock my doors and hatch, as well as start the car. The car responds exactly as it should with the lights and horn. The problem is it only works as a one way remote. The blue compustart remote is supposed to be one way, but the orange remote is supposed to give me a 2 way response. However, at least I know all of my wiring is correct. So the problem is communications handshaking between the box and the remotes.

So my Flashlink comes in and i'm able to switch the options to firsttech from fortin2. I tried to program the remotes on mode 1 and mode 5, but no success. I tried to do a full master reset and flashed the firmware to 0.96. I set it to firsttech in options and tried to program on mode 1 but didn't work. So i did a master reset, set options to firsttech and tried to program on mode 5 but no success. So I set it back to fortin2 and it programmed on mode 5 on the first try. Everything works again except only as a 1 way remote.

Any ideas, I figured it would be straight forward to program this remote?
