There's not enough information to offer any help.
{Some BMW models were sold as if their modules had BT capability and they did not}
{BMW part nbr info is important...if the TCU has MOST bus info...it is not compatible with your e53} {this is a compatible BT TCU}

The module that was in there before was just your basic TCU module that if you bought the Motorola phone you can hook it up and you have phone. So I bought a module that has bluetooth and replaced the old TCU and I have the bluetooth antenna installed as well in the correct area above the navigation DVD thing.
What I have read is that my module might have met the max amount of phones that can be paired to that module. I was wondering if there was a way to clear the phones from it so that I can put the module in pairing mode. Or is this something I have to take to the dealership where they can clear it. |

I put a TCU in mine, BUT I also had to add the blue tooth antenna, and the cable connecting the two, nearly impossible to find I might add!!! plus you need a mic. once you have the bunch installed. your phone should 'find' the Bluetooth module and you should be able to pair up! (does your module have a Bluetooth symbol on it!???)

It came with the bluetooth antenna. I have to dig in there to find the part number but when I bought it, it matched up to being a TCU that has bluetooth. But maybe I did something wrong when I was trying to pair it.

If the BT TCU you installed has a manufacture date prior to 10/2004...even though it has a BT symbol on it...as mentioned and shown in post #2...those early BT TCU modules were incorrectly identified as being BT compatible and they were not. If you have a BT TCU that was installed in one of the models below (and based on the manufacture/build date)...then it is one of the integrated TCUs that only require turning the ignition on and you can pair a device within a 2 minute period...without having to press ANY buttons inside the cabin. You would just open your cell phone/device and initiate it for BT pairing: Again, this is why the inquiries as to what did you specifically install. Just saying you installed a BT TCU is not enough since there were multiple part nbrs and modules for various install scenarios...along with some modules that were incorrectly identified as being compatible (but were not).
