CHRT6 in 2015 Chrysler 200 Push-to-start service key fob system

Question

I just finished installing the CHRT6 in my 2015 Chrysler 200 that has push to start.  It starts fine, but when it does a message comes up in the gauge cluster saying "Service Key Fob System" and then when I get in and put it into gear the head lights, fog lights, and parking lights all flicker on and off twice.  Is this normal? If not how can I fix it?  Thanks.

Answer 1

I just installed my system into the same car - It all works as expected except when I hit the break it shuts the car off, even if I hit the "start button" once first.

The only way around this is if I hit the brake and the start button at once, then the lights flash (like you mention above)  and I continue to drive.

According to the manual this is not how its supposed to work - you are supposed to be able to hit the start button then go into gear, except when I hit the break to go into gear it shuts off a few seconds later.

Is yours similar?

I am able to go into gear after only hitting the start button.  If I hit the brake and start button like I would do on a normal cold start it will kill the engine.
