either update your mygig software or go in the engineering menu and turn it on. I would just update to newer software.

Default My My Gig

Once my My Gig was synched with my phone it worked fine. It did take some time and several steps but it works great. All you have to do is press the uconnect button and you have hands free comms.

You should just be able to plug the mic into the back of the mygig and if it isn't new enough software go into engineering mode (by pressing menu and both up and down seek buttons at same time) then go to "enable JK HF+VR" and change value to yes. Exit menu and it should work. What version software is on it?
