is it possible to have both the icelink+ and aux working on the same headunit??

should the aux input jack be plugged into the stock harness or onto the
add-on icelink+ harness??

i just installed the HU version of the icelink+ into my 2005 mcs and didn't
check the aux input before buttoning it all back up.

of course, the radio doesn't detect the aux input now. the icelink+ seems
to be working great. i'm looking for guidance before i pull the dash
apart again outside in the cold

(i'm interested in using the aux input for my mp3/nav device)

cheers,

The iceLink appears to the headunit at a CD Changer and the AUX as an AUX. They can coexist nicely. I have both in my '05 MCSa.

 

I have both and they work fine. However I have the version of the ICELink that connects to the CD changer plug in the boot...

My full setup is...
MINI HK
OEM Sirius
Aux
Dension ICELink+
Sony Ericsson HCB-300 Bluetooth kit (now inop due to suspected controller failure)

All of these pieces played well together... well until the HCB-300 gave up the ghost but I don't think it's related to all of the stuff connected to the HU....

 

okey dokey, looks like i'll pull the dash apart and check all the connections
once there's enough light tomorrow.

 

Ate you using the BMW pass through cable to connect both the iceLink and Sirius?

 

Sure am

 

i dug into the dash again and gave the wiring a better look-over.
it appears the icelink + intermediate harness doesn't have the
passthru wiring for the aux input.

simply moved the aux input from the back of the original mini connector
to the back of the icelink + connector which is hooked up to the back
of the radio.

both the aux input and icelink+ work great now.
