Bluemusic set up problem

Post by ZedsDeadbabyZedzdead » Tue Nov 23, 2021 3:46 pm

Hi

I have purchased the recommended Bluemusic Bluetooth product and connected the dongle by the two connections provided directly into the back of the CD changer from the boot however my OEM business head unit no longer finds the “CD Changer” option so I can’t connect to it, my phone finds Bluemusic via Bluetooth so the dongle must be up and running but the car won’t find it now, can anyone who has this set up please please explain how to connect this?

Thank you

It shouldn’t need any additional configuration - it should just continue to show the CD changer as before, but play from the phone. I’d try reseating the both plugs, and if no luck (and the CD changer still works when reconnected), it’s likely a dud unit. It should be plug and play

Agreed. I have had both versions - bluemusic and bluespeak. No problem connecting either of them.
