Subject: Looks like I am in for a long haul to hunt for the I-bus. All the connector are Author: bmw635 : 15597 posts Posted on: 2007-12-05 23:15:04

stock and unsplice except for the 3 wires from Martin's homemade TV harness- can't screw up by just matching up the same colors on the connector. Back tracked everything! My suspicions are either I-bus wire got cut/ ripped from a connector somewhere or the protocol/ SW is screwed up somewhere since I've gone great length to keep my harness very clean and OE.

I'll report back next few days since I don't have time to look at ETM till weekend. Thanks.
