my evo one with thar-ma30 harness will not start vehicle

0 votes
I have  a 2017 mazda 3 manual- transmission, I have installed an evo-one unit with thar-ma30 harness.I am using the factory remote to start the vehicle. The remote responds to the unit by lighting up blue when locking and unlocking the doors. It also lights up amber when the push to start button is pressed. The remote start can be activated when the vehicle is already running and deactivated by depressing the brake but will not start vehicle otherwise. Im guessing my options are wrongly configured.

Manual vehicles require that you enable READY MODE in order to be able to remote start the vehicle.

I would suggest enabling option 33.2 so that READY MODE enables itself once ebrake is engaged then foot brake is released per the Choice 4 in the guide linked above.
