Bluetooth nightmare guys please help...

Post by seamybaby » Sat Aug 10, 2013 6:16 pm

I have searched and tried all the options but it still wont work!!!

Ok I have a 07 coupe that has factory Bluetooth fitted with a Sony k800i phone cradle...

Bought a genuine BMW Iphone 3gs cradle,installed it and tried all the pairing procedures.....4 hours later and still nothing....

So I reinstalled the K800i and even it does not work!!

I have added a pic of the text on the radio screen......don't understand the send/end button...pushed it and nothing happens?

Please help me before I go mad....

The system can only store up to four devices maybe it's reached it's max.if you have the manual with the red phonebox on the front it does tell you how to delete previous devices Page 11 Logging Off,i've never had any problems pairing a phone but i've never used it with a snap in adaptor :thumbsup:

Just to confirm you're using the bluetooth button in the cradle flap to pair, not the one on the steering wheel?

Does it actually go into pairing mode? It's a fiddly feckin' process I know that much.
