Okay, got everything working except for the remote start. It tries to start but immediately shuts down even with a key in the ign. I also noticed my accessories are not turning on. There are two acc wires and i need to turn the flex relay to acc2, but my unit did not come with the Quick ref guide. Does anyone have the guide for the python 951 or know the equivalent that may be on this website?

place key into ign, turn to on and remote start. if it starts you missed an ignition wire. recheck your wiring.Ted

tedmond,

Thanks for all the advice. turns out I had accidentaly connected the pink/white wire from the dball to the pink RS wire. Fixed that and the DBALL programmed just fine.

My ACC problem was I had accidentally turned the ACC during diesel wait to start to off.  Turned that back on and all accessories are working. Any way to eliminate the wait to start? Options i see are the WTS input and timed. 

My no start problem turns out to be the virtual tach. When I set the monitoring to off, the car starts and runs fine.  I put it to Tach, but it would not Tach learn.  I seem to remember a sensitivity jumper for the DEI units when this happens, otherwise I may need to connect the tach wire from the DBALL.

Finally, the trunk will not work when remote started. Knew this was an issue with previous firmwares and idatalink modules, but the current instructions do not list this limitation.  Anyone get it to work without running wires?  Trunk works fine when the car is not running.
