smart start experts

Ok I have a 2008 jeep wrangler that I have installed a xpresskit dball with the proper T harness on and I also wanted to add the smart start to which from what I understand is easy. I bought the VSS3000 kit from ebay. From what I have read in the instructions and online I can just take the smart start antenna module (DSM 200) and plug it right into the dball and go from there. Well I get the dball flashed, installed, and working perfectly, I then disconnect it to install the smart start and after I get flashing orange lights I get a solid orange only. I log into the installers portal and test the signal strength and all is very good there. From that point I still get no green lights at all on the smart start module, only orange. When I try to test the other options it does nothing. My module does not have the grey wire to ground. It instead has 2 wires, a brown and a white and you are supposed to cut one of them depending on what you want. I cut the brown because I wanted a d2d connection like that manual states. I unplugged everything and reset it and still no green light. What am I missing here to get this thign to talk to the dball so I can push forward with getting this working?

Whenever you flashed the dball did you turn on the rf output on the dball so it talks to the smartstart ? I think it's the first option, I believe you can also change it while the dball is installed in the vehicle.Advanced

I just hooked it back up and looked for something like that and I found nothing. I have 3x lock start and smart start selected on the 2nd option page. Otherwise I cant find anything about that.

I don't have a dball to plug in and flash to see where on the page it's located but in the install guide on page 19, it's feature 1, option 3.Advanced

Any other ideas?

did you use the white plug from the smart start or the brown?

My module (the dsm200) only has one 4 pin plug coming off of it for d2d. It is white. The other plug is just a 2 pin for power but I am not using it because it gets power from the d2d port when plugged in. So to be clear I am using the white plug straight into the d2d port on the dball

You still have to connect the 2 pin red and black wires to +12V and ground.

It specifically states in the directions to NOT so that.

Where does it say it in your guide? On the online install guide there is no where that says not to connect those 2 wires
