    This module comes with our USB Field Upgrade and Configuration Port! We recommend connecting it to a computer BEFORE YOU INSTALL and using our support app "m4cconnect" to do a quick firmware update check. M4cconnect as well as all other information regarding USB update and configuration can be found at www.mods4cars.com/usb. You can even configure and activate your favorite module functions and settings on screen before the module is installed in the car! It is a good idea to permanently install the USB cable with the module in the car, leaving the computer plug in an easily accessible spot for later use with a Wifi/3G/4G connected laptop.
    IMPORTANT TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS

    If the top does not work properly or at all after installing the module, these tips can be very helpful:

    • 1) Turn Function 1 (Main Switch) off (Setting 0). The module will be completely passive. If the problem still persists and the top won't work, check all connections. Please also check the green DATA LED on the module!

    • 2) Function 2 now has a valet mode (Setting 2) on many modules. Valet mode completely disables opening of the top. Check the setting for function 2 and make sure the module is NOT in valet mode!

    IMPORTANT: Not all modules have the valet mode! Please check the Operation and Programming Manual!
    FUNCTION OF THE DATA LED

    The DATA LED shows the module status and helps troubleshooting issues during installation:

    • When the ignition is ON: The LED should BLINK (flash) in a regular pattern (about 1x per second). This indicates that the module is receiving data and should work OK.

    • When the ignition is OFF: The LED should BLINK (flash) as long as the data bus is still active and turn off after a while (max 5 min) indicating that the car has entered stand-by (sleep) mode.

    • If the LED is permanently lit with the ignition ON, the module is NOT receiving data from the top controller and all connectors should be checked.

    • If the LED does NOT light up at all when turning the ignition ON, the module is either not getting power or not receiving ANY data. All connectors should be checked.
    Installation - Steps 1-3
    1. Turn ignition off and pull key before installing! Open trunk and move luggage divider into upper position. The right side carpeted cover needs to be removed.
    2. Remove plastic cap on roof mechanism resting point. Then unscrew nut (10mm) underneath and remove the whole part.
    3. Remove all plastic caps along the upper side of the carpeted area. They hold it in place and are easily removed by squeezing them while pulling.
    Installation - Steps 4-6
    4. Remove rubber pad from its socket in the luggage divider locking latch. Unscrew torx screw underneath.
    5. Remove the whole part by pulling upward.
    6. Push the carpeted cover towards the center of the trunk while lifting it over obstacles like the two white bolts. A moisture shield should become visible. Remove it. Underneath is the convertible top control unit, easily distinguished by the big green plug.
    Installation - Steps 7-9
    7. Remove the green plug (1) and the small grey plug (2) from the top control unit. Push the locking mechanisms in firmly while pulling and wiggling the plugs out.
    8. Connect the green and grey plugs with the matching sockets on the harness, then the green and grey plugs from the harness with the top controller, making sure all connections latch securely into place. Shown in the picture is still the old harness! We would appreciate a photo taken in landscape mode of the new harness installed. Please contact us if you are able to help. Thank you!
    9. Connect the smartTOP module to its connector on the harness, then tap the unlock button on the remote once. The green LED should blink, indicating a successful installation. Install the module in the void at the bottom, directly in front of the top controller, then put everything back together in reverse order. Lastly, configure the module according to our operation manual.
