For the record, here's an outline of the way I connect, so if you see anything wrong with it, please let me know:

- connect to the car, then connect to the computer
- use pairing stick (toothpick in my case) on the button on the PCB and turn on the car
- notice the bright red LED on the PCB is lit
- run your software
- verify the port connection
- verify the correct car-type
- read button
- select a profile from the pop-up
- write button
- default button
- read button
- verify the settings that just came from the car - some setting should be different unless the car is set for default.

That's the way I do it.
Good to know that resolved it but now that I think about it further I did fix a bug in previous versions that could cause the program to have a wrong default value for the header when the program was first opened. Most operations such as setting the car type or clicking the default button would set the value correctly. I think that bad value may have been written to your profile and so even though the new version no longer had the bug the program would use the bad value from the database.

Your process that you follow is good. Thanks for the help.
