CD changer help

i bought an OEM cd changer for my 2000 X5, my X5 has Navi and DSP.. the question is where is the cable that connects to the CD changer.. i found the small plug but i cannot find the big plug that on the bottom of the changer... is it being used for something else or is my X5 not have it?

On a 2000 X5 with DSP you have the small plug (3 pins for 12V, ground and i-bus) and the other connection is a coax cable.

Not that I am aware of. Why not just use the coax connection?

ok i found that you can use the coax(DSP) on the CD changer and thats what i used instead i didnt see that i had one tucked away.

mitsos587- if you have DSP in your X, you will have an extra long thin cable or coax thats attached to the DSP amp.
