4th and 5th pins in OBD2 are sometimes soldered together in car side connector so this shouldn't be a problem in this case.

iso_init() is very sensitive to timing issues:

 
#ifdef carAlarmScreen
// ECU is off so print ready screen instead of PIDS while we wait for ECU action
displayAlarmScreen();
#else
// for some reason the display on LCD
for(byte current_PID=0; current_PID<LCD_PID_count; current_PID++)
display(current_PID, params.screen[active_screen].PID[current_PID]);
#endif


#ifdef do_ISO_Reinit
#ifndef carAlarmScreen
#error ISO reinit will not function when not displaying the car alarm screen (#define carAlarmScreen)
#endif
iso_init();
#endif

U should try to disable call to "displayAlarmScreen();" becouse init_iso() is handled at same time.

On my car it is not a problem, but i noticed that if i try to display more debug info on LCD during reinit process - it does not reinit any more.

if this works and you still want that "securyty message" u should allow call to displayAlarmScreen(); only then ISO_InitStep is 0.
smth like:

  if (ISO_InitStep == 0)
    displayAlarmScreen();

One more thing to try could be to increase time delay before starting init bit-bang:

initTime = currentTime + 3000;

to change it to:

initTime = currentTime + 5000;

or more then 5s.
