Has anyone installed any amplifier (xd600/6?) and subs are working properly with the harness installed?
Also orangeglim and Diamantis : which audio package (Hi-Fi or HK) do each of you have? This issue could very well have to do with a switch that BMW made, probably some time during the 2016 model year, from 2 ohm subs wired in parallel to 4 ohm subs wired in series on specific cars. (Background: through at least early 2015, the underseat subs were 2 ohms wired in parallel for Hi-Fi cars, and 8 ohms wired in series for HK cars.)

With how Technic wires these, I can very easily see ohm rating and wiring technique affecting the harness' operation -- particularly on parallel-wired setups that operate off a single output channel. I would email him and make him aware of the issue.
