Bluetooth Cell Phone Interface installation question
I put the HD Bluetooth cell phone interface in my 2008 Ultra. I purchased the wiring harness adapter. \\; I wired the 2 wires into the back of the 35 pin harness at the back of the radio. \\; I plugged the interface connector into the harness. Then I plugged the corresponding connectors into the CB radio harness. \\; Long story short, i'm not getting the icon on the radio display saying "phone". The directions were really crappy and tough to follow. \\; Am I missing anything? \\; Are there any other connections that need to be made under the fairing besides the ones previously mentioned?

Maxum,

Did you buy the part from Showsag on Ebay? \\; I had the same result on my install, even had the Dealership check my wiring. \\; I think he had some bad or incompatable modules. The new bad news is the Bluetooth kit is now an oblsolete part number as of last week. \\; I am looking at getting a Zumo 550 or J&\\;M's new Bluetooth headset that can be plugged into the intercom also.

Yup, he got me too. \\; I emailed him, but have not received a response so far. \\; He's already left me my feedback, but I haven't left his yet. \\; So if anyone wants it, I've got both wiring harnesses and the antenna for the Bluetooth interface for sale now.
