DAB radio accessory

Post by Hellequin » Mon Aug 14, 2017 3:23 pm

I bought the z4, (2009), a couple of months ago and seem to have no connection between the aftermarket DAB radio and the car. It uses a JustDrive remote and I wondered if anyone knows how to reconnect it to the car. There is a cable from the DAB that goes into the back of the glove box and I can see the blue light on the unit flashing. I have no user manual.......

The DAB add on is probably one that re-transmits to FM, so you need to tune into the right frequency as if it were another FM station. As it has been used before you probably just need to find the right FM preset.

Brilliant, I found the saved frequency for it. Thought it was just a dud entry before! Thanks Chris
