Akrapovic Wireless Help

fejicu · 09-03-2016, 09:07 AM

Hi,

I recently bought a second hand 1M with The akrapovic full system installed. I managed to find the wireless receiver, but unfortunately there is no remote to be found.

I have been trying to connect via the wireless app but it doesnt find the receiver. I've checked the receiver and it has a green blinking light when the car is on.

The exhaust flap is working, i know it closes after startup! But I want to be able to control it!

Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

The newer receiver runs on bluetooth, and the original style receiver uses RF, you will need the cigarette lighter switch to operate it. You can try to contact HRE NA, however, in my dealings w/ them they have been they have been less than useful. Best bet is to email Akra directly and skip HRE.

You could always just wire in a simple switch/toggle that kills the power to the receiver, that way the flap would then open.

Thanks! That makes perfect sense!

If I found out the frecuency at which the receiver operates I'm guessing I could use a generic remote control?

I have the same problem having bought a third hand exhaust without the switch....looking for a solution myself.
