So as many of you know there has been several people with random dash lights
Advance trac, wrench icon, battery , blind spot etc..... Lately.
Well today it happened to me.
And I can confirm it is the MX Bluetooth adapter.
Started the car, dash board lite up like a Christmas tree.

What I didn't get to record was removing the mx adapter and all the lights going out one by one.
But I'm certain it is caused by the adapter.

I noticed that I can't run a vehicle diagnostic with my MX connected.

From my experiences, the mx only gave a random light. It was all the other brands that caused my car to shut off while driving, many many error codes, network errors etc. Then again, my MX was the wifi version.

Never had an issue with mine. Have you examined the pins on the MX?

yes. One of the first thing I looked at. This only seems to happen when I don't drive the car for a day or two. The battery is new (2014 agm)
So I don't think it's draining it low.
Car doesn't start slow or anything.

That is strange.

When you pulled the MX was it on?

If so did you notice if your comm light was blinking quickly or steady on?

Bluetooth light steady on or long slow blink?
