Default Meisterschaft Exhaust Owners: Eliminate Your Remote Control and/or Switch

All credit goes to Wesworks who figured this out. I didn't want to spam his BUILD thread so I'm reposting the information for everyone else to use if they're interested.

This modification allows you to use your HOMELINK Rear View Mirror buttons to open/close your exhaust valves. Of note, you must have 2 out of the 3 buttons unprogrammed for this to work (I had two buttons programmed and had to deactivate one to allow this mod to work).

Here are the instructions:

1. Press and release 1 of the unused homelink buttons on the mirror. An orange indicator light should flash on the mirror.

2. Press and hold the Open button on the valve remote while holding pointed at the mirror about an inch or two away from the mirror. Release the Open button when the indicator light turns solid green.

3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 on the remaining unused homelink button and the Close button on the valve remote.

4. Test homelink buttons. Remember to have ignition "switched" to whatever mode the valves are wired to while testing. I.E., if there is only power going to the valve controller when the engine is "on" then make sure car is on.

Big thanks to Wesworks for this great tip!

Thumbs up Bad ***

While I was shopping for exhaust I was wondering if there was another way other than the included remote. I went with JoeZ and I am happy with my choice, this will be a nice little upgrade to those that chose Meisterschaft. Well done for posting and to those that assisted!!
