So strange. I can "double mouse click" mine and it works fine. I never had a problem. I wonder how long the batteries last in the controller, and what batteries it takes.

No, once you have MPE installed, the DME does not control the valves anymore. The DME thinks it does, because it's hooked into a dummy valve controller. However, the BT controller is the only thing that works the valves open or close.

The harness is what is needed to hook up the MPE to the trunk connectors and modules in the trunk: https://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/partxref?q=18302414898
