Compatibility Information: Specific Vehicle Application List: INSTALLATION WARNING: Some BMWs are factory wired for a cellular phone. Except for wire location, the cell phone connector looks identical to the 3-pin power connector used for the CD changer and if connected, will damage your system. The CORRECT 3-pin connector for the CD changer has a BROWN wire (ground) in the #1 pin position. The INCORRECT 3-pin connector has the BROWN wire in the center or #2 position. Connecting the wrong 3-pin connector to the interface WILL damage the interface and cause it to not work properly! |
Installation is simple as this interface connects to your factory radio by plugging the two CD changer connectors, one a small, rectangular 3-pin connector, and the other a small, square 6-pin connector, shown at right, into the corresponding 3-pin and 6-pin connectors on the interface box, shown at left. The BMW CD changer connectors will be located in the vehicle, wherever the factory has chosen to locate the factory CD changer in the model of BMW/Mini Cooper you have. Typically that will be the trunk, but could also be in the glove box, center console or under a seat.
With this device installed, you will have created an auxiliary audio input to your factory radio, which will now allow you to plug in any external audio source, like the audio from a portable MP3 player, satellite tuner, DVD player, or iPod, into the left & right RCA-type connectors (shown at left), and play the audio from that external audio device directly through your factory radio. This is a direct-connect device and NOT an FM Modulator. An FM modulator requires you to tune to an FM radio station in order to listen to the audio from the external audio device. This device does not work like that.
