Hey guys,
Hoping someone can help. I had to give my customer back his '07 Lexus ES350 today in an incomplete state, and I'm hoping to solve this little issue with your help.
I'm using a Marksman X6 with the Xpresskit PKALL. The wiring was really straightforward, as I used the D2D connection. All I had to pull from the car was +12V, ignition, and a few wires at the pushbutton switch.
I have the r/s configured correctly as a diesel to properly initiate the brake sequence, and the (-) starter output is hooked into the PKALL as it should be. The car starts up exactly as it should. (The PKALL learned the transponder on the first shot. I did not flash the PKALL - I just used it straight out of the box.)
The problem is this: I am getting locked out of the car when remote started, and the doors will not unlock with the X6 remote (we know it won't with the factory fob). Two things that I am unsure about...
1. The PKALL says that I do not need to hook up the pink wire for door unlock when in D2D mode. Is that true? I did NOT hook it up, nor did I directly wire the X6 unlock to the car/BCM.
2. There was an addendum to the PKALL instruction sheet that says the D2D wiring is incorrect. Since I am plugging straight D2D from the Xpresskit to the X6 (same protocol as Directed's), this should not be an issue, right? Or, am I missing something... like switching some of the pins in the D2D harness?
Here is the document I'm talking about for quick reference:
https://www.bypasskit.com/manuals/999_PKALL_H00_S00_D02_I_ENFR.pdf
See page 6 (config. #6)
I can't find the addendum online, but it is document ADNXD2D65 rev. 2008 10.
Thanks a million.

D2D is great when it works but it doesn't always. We have had enough issues using it that we have stopped and now hard wire our modules to the alarm directly. I have actually had the support guys at Idata tell me never to use D2D...

No.....you still have to hard wire the actual door locks. The D2D will take care of the resistor part of the installation which means you dont need to run the resistor in line. There is no possible way the D2D connection is going to lock or unlock the doors. The aren't connected to the car other then to the transponder through the module. You need to wire them directly.
BTW....917 number???Is that NY???
I am getting this car back tomorrow. I will be trying the following first:
Alarm Disarm VIOLET (-) IN HARNESS IN DRIVER KICKPANEL TO DOOR
Alarm Arm BROWN (-) IN HARNESS IN DRIVER KICKPANEL TO DOOR
Note:
TEST THIS WIRE WHILE TURNING THE KEY IN THE DRIVER DOOR CYLINDER. USE A DOUBLE PULSE TO UNLOCK ALL DOORS
I will post after completion on Saturday.
Thanks.
