Good Afternoon everyone,
I am new to the forum, I just purchased my 2003 X5 4.6iS 2 weeks ago.
I thank all of the contributors on here for all of the details and fabulous information. I am a forum moderator for a BBQ forum, and I truly know how much time is spent in the threads
When I first got the car home I opened the glove box to read through the manual and I found the BMW ULF manual (yeah) with a card containing the passkey.
I read through the pairing instructions and gave it a couple of tries step by step (I have the telephone button in the center console). Both of my phones (Android and iPhone 4s) did not see the car. They aren't any lights on the radio (factory NAV) and nothing happens when I push the phone button on the radio.
I went to the back to make sure I actually have the unit in the car, check.
I pulled the battery for almost and hour and I read on here to check and pull fuse 73 in the back (which I did after reconnecting and testing).
And still nothing at all??
Is the unit pooched? Any other testing I should try? I am considering a GROM unit for USB music (and bluetooth), but thought I would try to get this working if it exists first.
Thanks,
Che
