me too - i bought a used bluetooth module for my BMW E90 from poland, plugged it in - works fine, apart from that the voice control only responds to german language!

that's quite a saving, thank you for that, i'll get one.:thumbs up:

got it back, it is an 01j927156ht if that means anything?

no, unfortunately, the part is with an ECU specialist in derby.

news today is that the gearbox control module has been opened before due to a fault in the past? but has been tested and is scrap, the specialist who tested it doesn't have one...

There is, 3 beeps.

no, it's nothing to do with fob/immobiliser. it doesn't click or do anything. a large red brake symbol comes up along with 3 beeps - nothing else. the suspicious item fits in the back of the gearbox and looks a bit like this -

well, it's turning out a bit of a nightmare. my mechanic had an audi specialist he knows have a look. they spent half a day going through everything. they unplugged all the various control units round the car and kept trying to get the car to talk to the delphi. when they disconnected the ecu...

yes, tried the spare key - no different.

it's never happened to this one either, it was fine the day before! brake lights ok, so brake light switch is working, unless there's an auxiliary feed to the ECU that isn't ok... battery is fine, fully of life. there's no click from the starter solenoid, starter motor will work if you short it...

..nobody got any ideas? my mechanic is stuggling, the delphi won't talk to the car so he's going over the car looking for a broken wire or something, any advice welcome..

evening friends, today, wife went out to her car, and it didn't turn over, let alone start. all the power comes on, everything works, radio/windows etc, but the brake symbol comes up in red with 3 long beeps. foot on the brake, in park as usual, no difference if you wiggle the lever or try it in...

Fixed! put in a new piece to replace the co-ax cable that was severed and the brown one which seems to be asn earth. result - but not for long. radio city played for 10 seconds until i wiggled the cables and it all went dead again. i chopped a foot length out of the other 2 co-ax - a large and...

i've got some of these - but how do you get the radio out? pushed them in the slots but still can't work out how to get the unit out...

done this [replied in the ICE section], but there's still a fault - unless, i suppose, i replace the co-ax completely.
