Info:
2008 E90 335i sedan
radar detector: V1 with hardwire kit
What I've done so far:
1. Went to Kragens and bought Add-A-Circuit
2. Inserted 5amp fuse into slot B of Add-A-Circuit
3. Crimped the V1 hardwire cable (using the blue slicer that comes with the hardwire kit) to the Add-A-Circuit red wire
4. Inserted Add-A-Circuit to slot 7 per diagram, no power to V1
5. Turned Add-A-Circuit 180 degrees and reinserted, no power to V1
Things I didn't do: disconnect car battery. connect groundwire from hardwire cable to car. Should this matter?
I'm at a loss at this point. Help!!
Thanks in advance.

You need to connect the ground. Here are some pictures:
