Radio Module (BM) Type?
Is there a way (without disconnect the module it self) to look using secret menu or something to find out what version (BM54,BM24, Old Gen,New Gen) radiomodule i have installed ?

If the nav voice is just reducing the volume, and goes "on top" of the radio/music when it kicks in, it's a BM54. If the voice just cuts the radio/music completely, it's a BM24.
But there are several versions of the BM54. How to distinguish them without disconnecting the module, that I don't know....

Regards

Yes, using NavCoder v2.0 you can read the part number, version, coding index, and manufacturere code all over the ibus

Hopefully I release it this weekend

It means it is a BM54, thats right. But it could be any version BM54.
Don't know when the new generation came out....I have a 01/2002 M3, and I think I have the old one.
But I'm not 100% certain though.
