you have to be sure to replace the actuators with the correct part, with these trucks some of them fit and connect the same but internally they are different and will not operate correctly, they can have the same pins and bolt holes so matching a aftermarket one up at the auto parts store doesn't mean it is the right one.

I have replaced it three times. First time it worked for a year or so then quit. Second one worked and then quit so I replaced it. That one worked for a bit then died too. I took it back as warranty. I can’t get the control to do a calibration even if I disconnect the battery overnight. I planned to start a thread in the other vehicles thread when I get my Tech2

It clicks and blinks, read somewhere that if it does a double click when after the first click it will not work even though it continues to blink. And passes the on board diagnostics tests. Which is what mine is doing. I wish I knew someone close that has one so we could do some swap analyzing lol
Did you get this working?

Tech2 arrived today. Powers up ok.
Does the Candi need to be connected to a vehicle to work? Mine doesn’t do anything powered up at the table. No lights or clicking.
