That's what we use, check with a multimeter to make sure power is there, I can't see the wiring changing so quickly.

Here's the DIY we posted earlier this year for reference.

A multimeter was used. There was power going to the rearview mirror, just not enough to get the V1 to turn on. Agreed that it seems pointless that they would change anything - but somehow I could only get enough power from the rain sensor.

I tried the steps from your post and a few others as well...it did not work in my setup. I even tried putting the leads direct onto the exposed terminals outside of the connector, in case the leads and my multimeter weren't seating properly. No luck there.

So all is well it is working great. Just sharing my experience. Thanks for chiming in!
