Yes, H3/4 Violet (+) Stater ( thick wire ) goes to the EVO-CHR Light Blue/Black (+) Starter Input ( thin wire ).

Can't help too much with the Viper programming ( I use the BitWriter ). As long as the EVO-CHR is programmed properly to the vehicle, it should output the Door Trigger EVO-CHR Green wire to Viper H2/6. Hopefully the EVO-CHR outputs an Ignition signal on the Yellow wire to the Viper H3/1. You could check to see if this happens with a DMM while cycling the ignition key OFF to ON ( and also test the Door Trigger output wire with the door open & closed ).

Soldering is fun!

So no other wires from the H3 harness? If that's the case, all my connections seem to be correct.

The problem may be in the viper unit from a programming standpoint. I just need to figure out how to get it in programming mode.

Great! I'll try that. I got to work once. But can't seem to get III again, even after trying for an hour. Damn DEI.

Ok. Got into e programming mode - had the doors locked with OEM key fob. DOH!

Still no remote start! Seven clicks from VIPER box.

Can it be the H3/4 violet starter output is the incorrect wire?

Look in the Viper manual. The seven clicks are the parking lights diagnostics. Watch the lights to see how many times they flash (most likely 7) then look in the troubleshooting section to see what corresponds to the number of light flashes. That will tell you what is causing it to not start. I am thinking that it is possibly in manual mode... but it's been a while since I've dealt with DEI

I programmed it to automAtic but now it clicks 8 times with no start. 8 clicks mean neutral safety shutdown. Checked the the BLACK/ white neutral safety wire from viper and it is connected to the fortin embrace status wire. Is this incorrect?

I also check the neutral safety switch for continuity and its good. Yes this switch is connected to viper brain and in the ON position.

I'm stumped!!!!!

Again thanks so much everyone's help. Any other ideas?

Make sure the neutral safety h2/2 stays grounded throughout the remote start, check with DMM. Also have you programmed the chr? Or are you leaving key in the ignition while trying to remote start?

The H2/2 neutral safety input is connected directly to the fortin bypass. So is the H2/17 hood pin and the H2/19 trunk, for that matter. I know these need to see ground before the RS will start. But I though connecting them to the fortin was doing just that. At least that the way the instructions had it.

Should I remove there's from the fortin and ground directly?

I ahve programmed the chr. Tried remote starting with the key in the ignition and no luck either.
