Hi friend, I don't have the rectangular connector behind the car radio, I installed a bluetooth adapter in the trunk because the connection is there but I don't have music in the car radio

[@cata2567]

[@rafagromek8152]

Hello you have DSP stereo system or not? With dsp this work also? Thanks

[@TheultimateDIYmachine]

Not DSP here. I don’t know if this trick works on DSP, please you can tell us all if so. Thanks!

[@TheultimateDIYmachine]

Hola, probablemente te sirva, comprueba si tienes el conector detrás del navegador.

Donde puedo comprar ese cable además el mío es del 2002 y no lleva el arma Cardón

[@TheultimateDIYmachine]

Jose ramon Torres santiago Lo puedes comprar en Amazon, aquí tienes el enlace: www.amazon.es/dp/B07SKWTK7H?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

[@davesvarczkopf]

Can you provide a link as to where you bought the cable?

[@c1982gonzo]

Mi e46 no tiene ese conector para el cable, se puede montar igual?

[@TheultimateDIYmachine]

En ese caso está más complicado, ya que tienes un módulo de radio distinto y ya no es un simple plug and play como en el caso del vídeo. A ver si alguien lee tu comentario y te puede ayudar.

[@c1982gonzo]

@@TheultimateDIYmachine Voy a volver a mirar si está escondido entre los otros cables, pero he tocado por el mazo y no he notado nada duro como si hubiera un conector. Puede ser porque el mío aparte de eso lleve el módulo de tv y ocupa ese cableado? Tengo harman kardon, no sé si eso tiene que ver.

[@TheultimateDIYmachine]

El módulo TV y el HK no tienen nada que ver con la entrada aux. Échale un vistazo con detenimiento a ver si hubiera suerte y aparece el conector.

Hi, I have a 2002 build e39 with the same looking unit - when I plug an aux cable in it doesn’t show aux on the unit? Any idea??

[@TheultimateDIYmachine]

Hi! Take a look at this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rorGmoWcmdWNq80

[@regtm6645]

So can i install a aux input on a e39 bmw 2001 model? I see this looks like e39 bmw 2002 model?

[@TheultimateDIYmachine]

If your car has BM54 radio module, yes you can. Just cars with a screen up front , you can check on the left hand side of the boot (were the cd changer is) will be a silver box with a loom plugged into it

[@regtm6645]

@@TheultimateDIYmachine what is a loom? if i had that cable where would i plug it into? I do not see that connection at the back of my radio, my radio looks quite similar to your one, if the connection was in the boot would i need a longer cable to reach to the front of car to plug aux in?

[@TheultimateDIYmachine]

@@regtm6645 Sorry if you don’t see the connector at the back of your radio, then I can’t help you out

[@regtm6645]

I have photos of my back boot i dont know what you mean by silver box ?

[@saropoggisasa1447]

Bei mir funktioniert nicht wieso ich habe genau gleich Radio MK4 mit Navi

[@TheultimateDIYmachine]

Yeah that’s common problem, you just solder a 300-500 ohm resistor (or whatever resistance is good for your cable, you just try) between black and yellow wires at switch behind radio to activate aux in port and problem solved!

[@TheultimateDIYmachine]
