Unless someone can spot some obvious error, I think this will need some structured troubleshooting.

Can you share your Splunk architecture (is this just a single local Windows Splunk instance, or is this inputs.conf on a forwarder that sends it to a distributed setup?)?

Any errors in this instance's splunkd.log?
If it is not a single instance: is the forwarding connection working properly in general?
Does the account splunk runs under have permissions to read that particular WMI source?
Does that index exist (on your indexer)?

Have you tried the WMI test procedure? http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/Data/MonitorWMIdata#Test_access_to_WMI_providers
