Default Apple CarPlay jumper question

I purchased an Apple CarPlay jumper to try and get carplay to show up on my 2020 triglide ultra boom system. I've seen several videos on youtube that make it appear that it's a fairly simple plug and play processl Mine doesn't seem to work. The jumper was advertised as working on 2019 and up road glide and street glide touring models, but it is not a perfect fit on the existing connection under the faring. The little rails on the outside of my existing WHIM connection are evenly spaced apart on each corner, whereas the adapter has one offset from the corner. I can force it in, but when I have the jumper in place, CarPlay does not ever come up on my screen. Anybody else tried this and had these issues? Suggestions appreciated!

There are 2 connectors in there that are very similar in appearance. You might be using the wrong one.

Excuse my ignorance but why do you have to buy a separate jumper to get Carplay to work? Mine works on a stock 2019 TriGlide. I use Apple carplay and just plug it in when I want to use carplay. Are you talking about a wireless option or something else?

Yours was probably already set up to use carplay without a mic being detected. Either the pins were jumped in some form or fashion or the dealer checked the block back when that was an option.

So I have good and bad news.... they work great!! That's the good news, the bad news is if your bike has WHIM on your stereo then it won't work with it... not sure if they make one somewhere that will... not to this point have i seen one for WHIM...
HOPE THIS HELPS YOU

If you look at responses above , you’ll see I just had it plugged in the wrong connection. Works great once you install it correctly, lol.

My CarPlay craps out after about 20 minutes using the jumper. Rumor is there is a software glitch
