The vehicle I am working on is a 2003 Audi A4 (B6 gen) Quattro w/ 5spd M/T. The remote start unit I am installing is a Compustar CM7200 with BLADE-AL immobilizer bypass module and FT-DAS sensor plus the Droid DR3400. It also came with a RF-1WG6-AM 1-way remote kit as well.
Here's what I have wired up:
Connector CN1:
8-Black GND -> Chassis bolt
7-Green Ignition -> Black ign sw wire
6-Yellow Starter -> RED / black ign sw wire
5-Blue Ign2 -> N/C
4-White Acc -> Yellow/Black ign sw wire (not sure the purpose of this - the wire exists but my vehicle does not have acc position - only OFF, ON, START)
3-RED / White 12V const. -> (paired w/ pin 1) 12V rail busbar
2-GREEN / WHITE Parking Lights -> N/C
1-Red 12V Const. -> (paired w/ pin 3) 12V rail busbar
Connector CN4 (Blade module):
20-WHITE/ Black Xponder/Key Wire 1 -> Xponder box (custom implementation)
09-White Xponder/Key Wire 2 -> Xponder box (custom implementation)
06-BROWN / Red CANH -> ORANGE / Green ign sw wire
16-BROWN / Yellow CANL -> ORANGE / Brown ign sw wire
All other pins removed from connector
I have not installed the Droid DR3400 yet, just trying to get it going with the fob first.
The GREEN / WHITE on the CM7200 has been left intact as it is being used in M/T mode. The unit powers up, I have been able to pair the remotes with the unit, calibrate the FT-DAS sensor and complete the tach learn procedure (which is read over CANBUS to the BLADE-AL). According to the BLADE docs, my vehicle supports Pri unlock, door lock/unlock, OEM alarm arm/unarm, Trunk release, door status, hood status, trunk status, brake pedal status, e-brake status and tach output all over CANBUS so no additional wires are needed.
The problem I am having is that I cannot get the car/unit into reservation mode. The procedure says to put the car in neutral, engage e-brake, remove foot from brake then remove key from ignition and the engine should remain running... (then to exit vehicle and close doors, doors should lock, engine should turn off). Well in order to physically remove the key I must first turn it to the OFF position which, well turns the vehicle OFF when it is supposed to keep running...
I am able to lock/unlock the doors with the new fob (albeit a bit odd - it seem to actuate the door lock about 6 or 7 times when I press lock/unlock a single time) and if I lock the vehicle with the OEM fob you can see that it does arm the Compustar system (LED on antenna blinks) etc. but can get the remote start feature to work for me.
The installation guide does not make it very clear as to what or if I need any wires from the CN5 connector which I was hoping to avoid, however, I don't know how it is supposed to get the neutral position signal? Is this where my problem is? Do I need the keysense wire as well?
They don't mention it in the docs anywhere but I assumed a clutch pedal limit switch bypass relay would typically be required as well? However, in my case, the limit switch is busted - failed closed - so it's kind of like I have a permanent bypass anyway.
Any insight into the issue I am having would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
