MPE valves

Just got back from a 3 week vacation and all a sudden my mpe BT controller doesnt open the exhaust valves... was just wondering if anyone has experienced this..

Also if anyone found a solution to just keep the valves open all the time.

Gotta be in gear, and does the controller light up? Battery issue?

I had the same issue ..

- I pressed the recessed button (using a toothpick) on the Bluetooth controller module in the trunk while holding down the Bluetooth remote button to sync it up - I had to try it multiple times but eventually got it to work

Once you get your Bluetooth remote to work you can open the valve and unplug the connector in the trunk to keep the valve open all the time

When i double click it does a fast two blink and sometimes it does nothing. I might try changing the battery. Only had the mpe for a month.

Ill try that! Would you happen to have a picture or post a picture of it for me? That would be really really helpful! Thank you.

Try changing the battery first - two blinks could mean either lost connection or low battery

I can be in P and press the BT controller button and the valves open, whilst the car is off.

It will open, but it will shut back off in a bit

Nope. Just checked. Once they open they remain open fully.
