Recently I had the MPE installed for my husbands birthday. Unfortunately when I picked up the vehicle, I wasn't able to test the exhaust. It wasn't until the week after that I discovered that it wasn't actuating the valves. So I popped open the trunk and removed the top piece. I could see that the module was in the off position. I thought, great - no problem here. I'll just turn it on. I did but that didn't make a difference.
With the vehicle running, I held the button down for 20+ seconds in hopes that I could pair the controller to the module. Since zero paperwork was provided to me, I have no idea if there are any additional steps involved. Fast forward to numerous email exchanges with the SA as well as another trip there so I could prove (yes prove) that It wasn't working. I asked him to look into the exhaust and verify for me that the valves were actuating. They weren't. So he attempted to pair the exhaust and was unsuccessful and left me with, "I'm not sure what to do next".
So either the module is defective, wired incorrectly or no one seems to know exactly how to pair the controller to the module itself. The latest email I received today said that the shop foreman "thinks" the module has a pairing button that has to be pressed. Yes, "thinks"...
Thanks in advance,
Monika
