Yup. Carbon fiber is conductive. This acts as an RF shield preventing the kick sensor from "seeing" your foot. It is a known thing that the installation of the OEM carbon diffuser will disable the kick feature. There is a workaround someone has come up with that moves the sensor closer to the back side of the diffuser. You can search for that thread.
