How to Install Evo All on a 2017 Explorer Police Interceptor

Question

I have a 2017 Ford Explorer Police Interceptor.  I installed an EVO-All using a Thar-For3 t harness.  I used guide 69061 with 4.01 firmwear and 7 hardware version.  Hood pin (Pink/Black) connected to ground, A16 (purple and yellow) and A1 (yellow) both connected to ignition wire.  The explorer has no alarm system and no transponder. I connect the power and release the button on blue, then connect the remaining connections.  When i turn the ignition to the on position the blue light flashes quickly without turning off.  I then turend the ignition off and use the seperate key fob (lock,unlock, lock).  The evo responds to the locking and unlocking then the red light blinks 5 times and then nothing.  I can turn the car on with the key, remove the key and the car continues to run.  The only way i can turn it back off is unplug the evo.  Any suggestions to try?  Thank you

If you are doing a stand alone installation, the stand alone guide is, 69071: https://cdn02.fortin.ca/download/69071/evo-all_ig_tsa_bi_for3-explorer_2016-2017_a_69071.pdf

 

5 RED led flashes = module sees a hood open. This is because you connected the PINK/BLACK to ground... If doing a stand alone install, follow the proper guide mentionned above

 

The hood wire you need to be grounding is on the car.
