Car Forum / BMW Cars / April 2004X5 AV In/Out
Hi Just collected new BMW X5 today.... I'm curious... there are 2 AV In/Out plugs on the centre thing between the two front seats (just under the cig. lighter in the back) What are they for? Can I plug my iPod (music player) in them to listen through the car's stereo system? - David Angelovich Hi Just collected new BMW X5 today....

Is there a wiring diagram or something? > Hi > [quoted text clipped - 20 lines] > > john What sort of plug do you use on it to get audio and video out/in?

I have connected both a music player and a video camera to the input, and nothing happens... When I connect the camera to the output, I get sound and video (from the tv).... I've selected the AV channel on the TV, but still nothing.... Is there anything else I should know? > What sort of plug do you use on it to get audio and video out/in? > Is there a wiring diagram or something?

[quoted text clipped - 27 lines] > > John as far as i can see you're doing the right thing. only thing i can imagine is that the connector fails on you (either the output or your cable). are you using the same cable or do you have 2? if you get sound and video from your tv on your camera than that cable is right. for your mp3 or cd player a standard cable will do cause you dont need to send tv signal to the bmw system. good luck, John |
