1 year later - no issues with the system.

We had a hickup while at the dyno tuner - he tried to jump one the switch for the ignition with +12V (the switch is grounded on the ISIS system). Blew a fuse and caused an issue with the individual circuit - solved by replacing the fuse and reprogramming the circuit but no damage to anything. My ISIS was an early production/late prototype and did not have the warnings on the unit that the new ones do regarding grounded switches so not an ISIS fault but lack of communication issue.

Other than that, the only thing that has caused any questions has been human error - hitting the security lockout on the key fob without realizing it.

Which is one of the great features of the unit that gets no attention - built in to the system is a (near as I can tell) fail safe security feature that allows the user to completely lock out the ignition/starter. Used as a theft deterrent or for piece of mind when the car is in the hands of others you can't beat it.

The visual diagnostics have helped a bunch when troubleshooting stuff as well.

I have no issues with it what so ever and have already ordered another unit to use on my next build.
