    Does this fiber optic bypass affect the GPS? I have a Drone Mobile auto start and I still want the remote starter to work with this. Any idea? Thanks

    I own a 2017 bmw 330i Xdrive. My sound and chimes all work on my car but sometimes the SOS error pops up and the goes away. It can be there for a few mins then it goes away. It can go days to weeks and then pops up. Any suggestions on how to fix And remove this error?

  • @dan1981ify

    It does not draw current from the battery as I initially thought, it has got no current draw.

    Dude the fiber optic loop starts from the radio to the amp to the telematics to the usb most (if you have it) then to satelite radio (if you have it and 2010 + its integrated in the head unit). Since you are not getting a red light from the telematics plug, that means the issue is either the amp or the radio itself.

  • @tranbao1160
    @tranbao1160 10 месяцев назад +1

    I followed your instructions, but the sound is still audible, and the SOS error light is still displayed. What should you do to make it disappear?

  • @dan1981ify
    @dan1981ify  4 года назад

    For my own peace of mind I boucht a male / female loop and I bypassed the TCU but it didnt solve the problem. So I belive indeed that the problem lies within the phone unit wherever that is. But is not near the boot, rear seats, telematic box, rear wings or anywhere near. Where can that phone unit can be ?

    Today 2 Oct 2019, i got the same problem of SOS CALL MAINFUNTIONAL FAILTURE, the Bluetooth can not active, and the ipod can not Be read through CD1-2-3-4-5.... the problem is due to the TCU????

    • @Xio00001
      @Xio00001 4 года назад

      Same problem here. Changed TCU (used from ebay) but I get the same sos error. The TCU does have the Bluetooth logo on it so I suspect the TCU and Bluetooth module are in the same box. I need to check if the "new" TCU from Ebay needs to be coded to the car or something.

    @dan1981ify  4 года назад

    I have taken the car to the garage, a real good one in Surrey and explained them what the situation was. And after a couple of days and a series of tests Ive been told that there is a fault in the telephone unit. Not the TCU (telematics box) but in the phone unit. Does anyone knows where that is ? It is not in the back in the boot or anywhere near it. Nor under the rear seats or anywhere else under.

      @grayantihero6059 Год назад +1

      Not sure what these guys are telling you, but the telemetics module houses the telephone unit, along with Bluetooth and all that. Since the plug going into the telemetics module was not lighting up, the issue is most likely in the amp or the cable leading to the amp from the radio.

      Same here, it popped up a min later and stayed there until I sold the car. Didnt do any problems or anything just sits there like a sore thumb. Mind you the buyer never asked anything about it.

    If it upseted you so much why didn't you just cut the plastic piece off and connect the wires together to create its own loop I have it on my car but it's no concern for me My battery doesn't drain I just had a program a new battery All I worry about is a check engine light but not an SOS or TPMS or even a light don't care for those cuz I know my tires are good my radio is good and all my lights are good
