[eas] Official DICE iPod integration kit Q/A thread

[TWALK]

All I can suggest is to double check your changer cables to ensure that you've connected the module cables to the correct one. I know that my X5 had two cables from the cd changer box.
Aside from that, I can't see anything you may have missed.
I've had to reboot my DICE module before, and done so while driving. I've actually unplugged the module (all cables) and reconnected them because my iPhone was showing as "Detached" in the display. I didn't have any adverse reaction to disconnecting the device without removing the battery cables, or even turning the car off.
I know it's not recommended to do so, but, I figured I'd let you all know that I did that without any negative results.

Recently bought a DICE kit and I followed the manual instructions for DICE SILVERLINE module installation, I have a X3 from 04 with NAV System on a small monochrome color screen and CD changer installed.

Do the following:

1 - Hung up the battery cables
2 - Removed CD Changer
3 - Dice module installed
4 - Battery cables reconnected
5 - IPod Nano 1st Generation ( Firmware Version 1.3.1 ) booted and connected
6 - Dice module doesn't recognized by BMW system ( when mode button pressed nothing happens!!! )

Disconnect battery cables again, CD Changer reinstalled, battery cables reconnected and everything back to normal.

I missed anything ?
There is any possibility to test Dice module outside car ?
Do I have to do something that I did not ?

Any advice will be appreciated...


Thank You
