I installed a BCM94362Z NGFF card NGFF card. It's working in windows. On 10.12.5 I installed the following kexts to S/L/E :
FakePCIID.kext
FakePCIID_Broadcom_WiFi.kext
BrcmPatchRAM2.kext
BrcmFirmwareRepo.kext

I applied the fvco patch in the kexts to patch section in clover
bluetooth is working and I get a wifi icon in menubar. when I click the turn on wifi nothing happens.

I have attached files for trouble shooting.

Not a desktop. Moved to laptop support.
ACPI not patched correctly (no "OS Check Fix" patch).
See guide linked from FAQ.

solved this just had to boot into windows and join a network and then when I booted into osx the radio would start.

what do I need the OS check fix for. I will install if needed

Brother can you please be kind enough to make a guide on installing on this laptop? I have the exact same laptop as yours :)
