Unhappy Music/AC face panel not working

Gents! I've removed the face panel controlling the AC/Heating and radio buttons due to MMI installation. The MMI is working great but I have a problem. My AC/Music control panel is no longer working. I'm pretty sure cables are and well connected both 18 pin connectors (blue one into the blue and black to black port). Any suggestions? Perhaps, I've blown the fuse, but not sure which number it is. I'm open to any suggestion, getting desperate here. Please help!

Had the exact same issue when I installed my MMI, was sure the cables were properly plugged in.

Unplug and then plug both of them in. Check for any bent pins in them and make sure you fully lock them.

Test before putting the dash trims back together

Thank you! You were right. The connector has actually two positions and it is possible to lock it in the second one without beginning in the first one. The trick ist to put the small lever 90° down, plug it in as far as it goes and then work your way up all the way.
