Same results as you cuz.
Picked up the same cradle and dropped it in. No charge and signal bars jus dropped. I'll plan on retrofitting the BT/Assist unit and hopefully get this thing up'n'running. In the meantime, she’s jus all show.
:o

Interesting, I didn't know we were related. ;)

Is the BT/Assist combo retrofit a simple plug and play into our '04s, or does it involve more heavy lifting? When do you plan on doing it, and do you know the part #'s neceaary to pull it off?

In the meantime, wft is BMW doing selling us a part that doesn't work? :dunno:

If Ed can't get it working, it can't be done :smokin:

Looks like these snap ins are having problems....

just like the V710 that snaps into it... :rolleyes:

How true. :dunno:

War stories way back from toadfly justifies. :gun:

For now I'm gathering as much info as I can. I got the head honcho at my dealer making calls and later this week we'll compare notes and take it from there.

I know what you mean and I still think BMW should step up to those with assist w/out BT and offer free upgrades. :tsk:

Perhaps you might get lucky and your module is one of the ones being recalled and replaced with one that gives you BT :dunno:

Hmmm. I think my assist is F'ed up and needs some upgrading action :D .

:thumbup: for the info.
