C7 Mild 2 Wild Problems
I purchased a M2W last week and received it yesterday. I installed it per the directions and cannot get the remotes to work. I have tried with hood open and closed, infotainment in stealth and auto and cannot get it to work.
If I remove the fuse from the adapter and plug it back in, it works fine so fuse is not the issue, any suggestions?

Call them and ask. It sounds as though the box isn't getting power or not receiving the FOB transmission. Did you add the 2nd fuse to the power tap?

My bad! 1 fuse, the one you removed from the block and a white wire where the 2nd fuse would be.

Back to not getting the radio signal from the FOB or no power to the black box.
Looks like a call to them would be appropriate. The install is very simple. Was there a black ground wire? Good ground? Did you stretch out the blue antenna wire and secure it?
