Ah. So from what you and Carylon said, it's in the dash - and part of the CD unit?

Yes sir. You will find the radio antenna cable plugged into the CD unit.

Does your X5 have DSP? Tell us what is wrong besides no sound.
Start by checking fuses.

Any thoughts? Could a bad amp be the issue? I've checked fuses and they look good, though if someone could list off the ones that are 'integrated' into the radio, that would be awesome.

Thank you.
