V3 and Bluetooth
 

I finally got Mobile Phone Tools and transferred my contacts to my V3. Problem is my phone book wont transfer! Do you think it could be because the initial pairing was done with an empty phone book? I can't imagine that. But I also cant figure out how to delete the BT Handsree device in the V3 so I can reset it up with an initial pairing.

Any help is appreciated.

I think to re-pair the phone you might be better off first clearing the paired phones from the vehicle ULF module. Assuming you have the pre-2005 ULF (non-combo BT/Assist module, that it), here's the steps to unpair it from the phone:

The paired BluetoothTM mobile phones can only be deleted as a single group from the ULF control module. The pairing procedure must first be activated, and then the send/receive button on the installed eject-box must again be depressed for an additional 10 seconds after the “Bluetooth Pairing” message is displayed on the radio in order to clear the list of paired devices from the control module and the message “paired devices deleted” is displayed.

I'm not sure if or how you could unpair a phone from the 2005 combo Assist/BT module. :dunno:

Thanks Jeff. I do have a 2005.

In that case, try this. I haven't played with the V3 much, but if it is anything like my V600 then go to the Bluetooth Settings menu, then select the "Device History" menu, then select the "BMWxxxxx" device and press the = button and select "Delete".

(xxxxxx above will be 5 numbers that are unique to your device)

Good luck!

Any idea how I locate the Bluetooth passcode for my vehicle? Manual is silent and there are no ID #s anywhere in my printed materials. Where is the bluetooth/assist module (to read the passcode?) located on the 2005 X5?

TIA.

Mine was on a card with the rest of the manuals.
