Gap tech remote control not working

Post by streetcar » Thu May 18, 2017 5:46 pm

Hi all

I purchased a remote control for my Z4 Roadster back in August and now it's stopped working via the cars remote.
It's still works using the button inside the car on the one push and release basis just not with the cars remote.
There's still power to the cigarette lighter so the power supply is not the issue.
I've tried emailing gaptech but getting ignored at the moment and there's no phone number listed.
Has anyone else suffered from the same problem and what was the solution??

Cheer S and regards sd

Did you use the scotch loks that came with the kit or do soldered joins as the scotch loks are a known weak point
