Re: Spare Canbus socket on 2017 LE

Thanks - they make the N Normans plug look cheap !


I have emailed NN to ask them for a suitable plug - if the latest RT LE does have a spare socket that fits the plug NN supplied, I certainly cant find it


Cheers

Re: Spare Canbus socket on 2017 LE

Afternoon all Finally got around to taking off the screen and the dash/console top to find there is a spare socket! Good news, the job is nearly done. But no way will the cable sourced from Nippy Norman fit it    :not: - the spare socket has a 'male' 2 pin arrangement, whilst the c...

Re: Spare Canbus socket on 2017 LE

Hi Thanks again - that makes sense I do have the cradle and the blanking plate, and at present only plan on using the bike for commuting, so no need for a satnav. Having the 'protection' of video evidence in the event of an accident is much more important to me - will pull it apart again at the wee...

Re: Spare Canbus socket on 2017 LE

Hi John I have a 2017 LE I took delivery of in January -- it was originally destined to be a demo bike. I don't think that it had Satnav prep (certainly no satnav) - do you know if that means the connector is 'spare' in the sense I can plug into it ? Or does it make no difference ? That would mean ...

Re: Spare Canbus socket on 2017 LE

Hi Yes - I suppose it could - but I have read many warnings against splicing into the Canbus stuff - besides I need to get my money out of the £19 wire I bought from NN! Seriously, its only got 300 miles on it - and my electrical competence is at the 'bodge it and see if it works' sort of level ......

Re: Spare Canbus socket on 2017 LE

Hi John Thanks for your reply - appreciated I have read all of that posting and taken off the speaker cover on the nearside (UK) but still cant see any spare canbus fittings at all ? Beginning to wonder if BMW still provide it - that said you would expect the loom to have the wiring for the satnav ...

Re: Dashcam position
