sprint booster issue with 2016 TLX

I tried installing a V3spring booster on my 2016 TLX and it set off all the warning lights. I took it off and plugged the factory harness back in and it won't reset. HELP!!!

I have the Sprint Booster on my 2015 TLX w/advance V6. To me, it is the next best thing to sliced bread. The instantaneous power makes the car feel like a much higher performance car than it is. Is really should have come this way from the factory.

As for your problem, I can suggest a few things:Are you sure you had the ignition OFF during install. I know many people who wanted to leave the radio on, and leaving the ignition on will likely cause a problem.

You must also leave your driver’s door open for 10 minutes prior to installing the Sprint Booster so that the CAN system in your car can neutralize.

It is also possible to install the harness clips backwards, and if so, that will cause a problem.

Overall, any of the problems can be easily fixed by putting things back the way they were and disconnecting the battery for a few minutes.

The Sprint Booster is pretty rock solid and defects are very rare.


I’ve had my Sprint Booster (Version 3) for a few weeks now and really love it. I paid $225.

I’ve done an abundance of research on the Sprint Booster, so if you have any other questions, let me know.
