So I finally replaced my stock battery a few days ago. Since then, my lockpick features do not work.

I tried holding down the Uconnect button for 7 seconds like the directions state while in the DVD menu, but the Uconnect menu just pops up. Also tried cycling the power off/on with no luck.

I have an email in to CoastalTech as well but figured someone else may have run into this issue before. Thanks in advance for any tips.

In the Lockpick instructions it says you need to pull the radio fuse before disconnecting the battery. Trust me, they are correct.

If you open the top of the dash and disconnect the Lockpick and reconnect it, everything should work again. I've had practice and can do it in less than 5 mins now.

 

Well that's no fun Thanks for the tip. Will try it this afternoon.

The radio has to come out partway, but not completely.
I don't have to take the whole dash off...
I pull the top cover above the radio.
Just pull the top clips of the center bezel, it flexes forward enough to unscrew the 4 bolts that secure the radio (7mm socket fits, if I remember correctly).
I slide the radio only about halfway out, and that gives me enough room to reach behind and reset the harness.
Slide the radio back, install 4 bolts, snap top bezel clips and top cover on. Easy! But like I said, I've done it several times.

 

just an Idea/suggestion, when I put in my lock pick I zip tied it behind the glove box area in case I ever needed to get at it again, glove box comes out pretty quick and the area behind the radio gets pretty cramed back there with the lock pick
