I got it working. I also had to change 726-45-01 to xxx-x3xx-xxx. I ended up using power from the 12 volt outlet in the car. The cupholder lights come on when the headlights come on. However, they say on if you then turn the headlights off until you shut off the car. I also can't dim them or turn them off using the sync screen. Can you control your cupholder lights from the screen?

Thanks for the reply. He is what I have done so far and they still won't light. 1. Cut off the end of a 12 volt cigarette lighter plug to use as power and ground. Ran those two wires to the cupholder. I just did this to test, will get a permanent solution if I get this to work 2. installed a new pin in slot 13 of the bcm harness c2280G and ran wire to cupholder 3. changed bcm 726-65-1-01 to 0001-0100-0095 4. changed apim 7DO-01-02 to 000-D438-381E, I didn't change the 3 in the last series to a 2 because my cup holder is only ice blue I don't understand what you mean by SlaveExists_ALM_Cfg Is there anything I am missing because the light on the cupholder still won't come on?

Any luck finding the changes. I got it on the screen by changing the apim. Just not sure of the changes to make in forscan for the bcm.

Hey Wubster, Were you able to find the changes you made with forscan to enable the menus on screen?

Any help you can provide is appreciated. I’ve scoured the internet and can’t find the forscan changes that need to be made.

I made the change in the apim to a 2 from a 3 thinking that would enable the menu in sync but it didn’t. I haven’t installed the cup holders or ran the Lin wire from the bcm yet because I want to make sure I can get the menu to show up first. Can I get the menu on sync by changing the apim before the cup holders or wire from bcm is installed or does everything need to be installed to get the menu to display.

I have a 2024 which has sync 4. Do you remember the changes you made with forscan to the bcm and apim?

Your install looks great. I am in the process of installing the lighted cupholders in an sel that never had ambient lighting. Below is the process as I understand it. Is there anything I am missing? 1. run wire from pin 13 on the c2280g haness in the bcm to cupholder 2. tap power and ground from somewhere 3. Change 7D0-01-02 xxx-xxx-2xxx using forscan (I did this and it did not put the ambient lights control on the sync screen, do I have to install the cupholders first before I make that change? Is there also changes that need to be made in the body control module using sync? Where did you get power and ground from for the cupholders? Did you make a harness or just wire tap? Did you find a harness to plug into the cupholder or just cut off the factor harness that comes on the cupholder and tie wires together? Thanks in advance for any guidance you can provide.
