Door Locks not working

0 votes
I did an install of aftermarket door locks with actuators and relays on a 2016 RAM 1500 Tradesman with manual locks and manual windows. I have installed EVO-All with the THAR-CHR6 and fortin FTX64-2W. The remote start starts but will not turn off, the doors will not lock or unlock. I have checked and rechecked all connections and have reprogrammed the EVO-ALL several times. Seems like the module is not sending a negative signal thru the purple and purple and white wires to tell the locks what to do. I do not know what is going on with the remote start portion. Help!

Purple and purple white are INPUTS not outputs...so they do not send anything when you press lock and unlock.

 What wires from the evo are connected to the after market door lock actuators?

Looking at the service number did you also wires this in as an alarm?

Yes, it is a stand alone alarm, remote starter and now i understand why the locks are not working. is there particular negative wires that i need to hook to that will send a negative signal to my relays?
The evo-all unfortunately does not have enough outputs to be able to do what you want. On some vehicles, the white and green wires can sometimes be used as doorlock outputs BUT when the Evo-Alarm is enabled, the white and green  wires become horn/siren and starter kill outputs.

An Evo-One would be a better solution for what you want to do.
