Does a new MPM relay need to be programmed?
I've searched high and low. Most forums say it doesn't, others say it has to be programmed. If it is just a relay then no programming should be needed, right?
Anyway, thanks for any info.

As far as I can see, the MPM controls some audio, some I-drive, some alarm, blue tooth (I don't have it), and other SECONDARY functions. The MPM is a $175 part but the stealership was trying to charge me $1200 to replace and reprogram it. I don't believe them, because this particular dealership is known for their BS.
