Did anyone have probles getting a TCU into pairing mode? Some people in this thread report the need to plug in the eject box temporarily to get pairing to start.

Maybe this extra step is required?

1) Turn Key off and then to KL-R or KL-15. 1.
2)The vehicle is ready for pairing for the first 2 minutes of key on. 2.
3) If the R/T button on the MFL is pressed, "Activate Phone" appears on the MID or Board Monitor. For the E53 X5 the seatbelt needs to be plugged in and the R/T button pressed on the MFL and "Activate Phone"
appears in the Instrument Cluster.

Jochen> What is the navcoder command for R/T and seatbelt-in and I can try this on my bench?!

Press the "R/T" button on the steering wheel emulator in NavCoder

I think I need to try it in the car, if it ever comes back from the mechanic...

I think I'm missing a RAD -->TEL initiate link to handset.

I have a radio here but it won't power up unless connected to a car.
