So I purchased a Fortin EVO remote start kit for my 07 with a 4.7. It looked like a pretty easy install, until I got to looking at the instructions. Does anyone know where the "datalink" is located?? I thought they were referring to the OBD port, but this data link is supposed to accept a 4 pin connector from the remote starters T-harness. Also need to tap into an ignition wire coming out of the data link. I assume it's somewhere in the dash near the steering column.

 

is the datalink the theft bypass or is it a interface used to do the programming? most modern remote start kits have the remote start module, theft bypass, and then you need someone to program it.

 

Here is a pic of the diagram

 

yep, its the theft bypass you need to buy one if your kit didn't come with it. instructions should detail how to program it. you may need to take it to a shop with a programming interface or you may be able to go to the manufacturers server.

 

Is a theft bypass the same thing as an ignition immobilizer???

 

...yes
