Forget about the canbus lines. If the vsim canbus connector is plugged into the green block with the black base directly behind the headlight switch, that’s all that matters.
What are the VSIM circuit numbers you are trying to use?
Yep it's definitely plugged into the black backed can distributor block. The circuits I'm using are the any door ajar. Pin 7 Grey connector circuit w720. Door unlock all pin 2 brown connector circuit w722 and trans park postion pin 7 Grey connector circuit w700. All these circuits are being used as relay controls.

Did you enable the P/T Chassis Net setting with AlfaOBD?

No I don't have alpha yet. U know of anybody else that's tried this? Kinda funny that the vsim will still work but only with ignition turned on. But I'm gonna try my snap on solis again tonight and see if it will do it.

Well, there you go. You have to enable it in the BCM for it to function properly.
And yes, I have added this after the fact, along with others that I know of.

Jimmy just figured something out from another thread. Info from the stelantis page Literally states vsim is asleep without key on except for unlock and lock inputs to vsim. So I kinda think I'm gonna have to put a ground to the unlock input. ( possibly from the bcm) to wake up vsim and can circuits. Have a read on the first page
