Thanks for the reply. I looked prior to the post but I have not seen the antenna. I'll look again this week and hopefully be able to find it.

So , the purple cable that is shown in the post was actually a male and female already connected. Since I did not see any other cables that seemed as though they would fit the ULF during the install, I disconnected the two and plugged the female end into the ULF to make it work. It was a gamble and with it connected, the system works. Just lots of static and lost calls. Without it I get getting "function is currently not possible".

I bought a used antenna and it's end also plugs into the female purple connector shown in the trunk but it leaves me with nothing else to connect to the ULF. Even with the way it is now, the purple female wire connects to the ULF leaving the male connector set aside and the system does not work.

Is there a wire that I am overlooking? The car seems to have all the buttons and wires that would enable the upgrade to be done, but something just isn't right.



Any pics would be great if you can advise.
Thanks!
