Magnums with remote releases are on YouTube - stronger struts lift the tailgate apparently! Not sure if I'd want to go that far, I just want it to unlatch. Need to fit new struts on mine anyway, it drops unless opened most of the way.
It's the one with the foglight switch - going to try trimming the detent off, then if it works, I'll order the proper switch. Wonder why they didn't just fit the switches in the first place, when the hardware is there...
Unfortunately because it doesn't lift at all when the button's pressed it doesn't unlatch, thats why they change the struts.
I wouldn't bother changing the switch, just trim the knob. The auto lights will work when it gets dark but check in the evics personal settings, I think you may find the turn on lights with wipers is possibly missing from the software.
I'd change the switch because I like doing things that way - but I'll test it by levering the control out and making sure that position works first. I want the illuminated A.
Is there a guide to EVIC versions anywhere? Mine doesn't appear to have 0-60 in it, there is conflicting info floating about for when and where features were implemented.

Given a choice between kids, or a V8... I'll take the V8.
Can you tourer boys still unlock the tailgate with the key button?

My keys only have two buttons, and whilst changing the battery I tried prodding the additional contact pads to no effect. The Magnum forums suggest that with the switch, resistor in the latch and a programmed 3-button fob, the boot release does work though.

I don't remember the A illuminating on my last C and that had the correct later type switch.
I don't think there is a guide anywhere. I think the 0-60 came in early 2007. My evic software is dated Apr 2007 and has the 0-60 in the hidden menu but not the headlights on with wipers function.
I took a new Keyfob to the dealer yesterday for programming and my dealer said "you don't need that, your car is due two new keys under a recall". So I came away with two brand new keys and will have to stick my replacement one back on ebay!!!

Result! Nice for a dealer to be honest for a change.
