ssd1984 Posted March 14, 2015 Author Share Posted March 14, 2015 One stupid question.. Where is the spacebar in navi when I have to search for a POI(sometime it need a space between words) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssd1984 Posted March 14, 2015 Author Share Posted March 14, 2015 I honestly couldnt say regarding the DAB as mine had DAB as standard but i dont see any reason why you cant leave in the radio you have got. Did your DAB work when you´re plugged the antenna cable into the radio unit, or did it first work when you plugged it into the screen??

Typhoonf2 Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Im not sure about the postcode thing i honestly couldnt say. I think the dab is the white connector on back of radio so i never had to remove it but as soon as i plugged black connector into screen then patch cable from screen back to radio i got all my traffic updates.

ssd1984 Posted March 14, 2015 Author Share Posted March 14, 2015 I thought the white connector were for AM.. Okay I´ll wait and see what happens when I get the fakra z cable from eBay, if it only activate tmc or if dab will work too :-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoonf2 Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 No AM-FM will work on one antenna. DAB runs of a different frequency. Id be surprised if DAB worked but your traffic should work no problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssd1984 Posted March 14, 2015 Author Share Posted March 14, 2015 aha.. very strange that I have both the black & white wire, and my car dosent have factory fit dab :-/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoonf2 Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Yer it is strange i couldnt give a definate answer maybe it will work maybe it wont. Do you get any dab settings when you press radio button?. I get fm then fm-ast then dab 1 dab 2 then lw and am. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssd1984 Posted March 14, 2015 Author Share Posted March 14, 2015 No dab settings, only FM, fm-ast, AM, am-ast :-/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoonf2 Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 If you have the black and the white connector with the 2 wires going into radio just like mine check your antenna on roof. Mines got what looks like a wire wrapped around it maybe mines for the DAB i dont know for sure maybe yours is a standard antenna and thats why its not picking it up. Im just throwing suggestions out here as im not really clued up on radios lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssd1984 Posted March 14, 2015 Author Share Posted March 14, 2015 Yes I have, I dont know how to remove the antenna, but I have bought a dab antenna on eBay.. Will give you an update if it working or not, good to know the white plugg is for dab ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoonf2 Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 It should just unscrew like any roof aerial. Well we think the white connectors for DAB so we shall wait and see lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoonf2 Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 You should have an aerial on top of roof (outside) like a whip you dont need to take the roof lining off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoonf2 Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 On the focccus programme number 125 (satellite radio reciever) gives you the option with or without DAB radio maybe you need to activate it inthe software of the car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoonf2 Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 You need the proper cable its a modified elm327 if you type in focccus on eBay is should give you the cable its got a switch on side of it. on mine it says ive got dab maybe yours says you havent and it needs switching on. Have a look for focccus on youtube you find a few videos of how it works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
