Please help me disable Active Sound Design
it is driving me insane. I found the amp by the drivers backseat speaker. I unplugged it and it turned off my entire radio.

Ask Kevin at Integral Audio if he can sell you a harness or contact
https://technicpnp.com, he should be able to sell you a BMW one. Someone on here wired up his own solution and did some wire rearranging.

thre's a couple threads on here that document how to disable it, modified harness or code it out
if you dont learn how to code it yourself there's a risk when the dealer re-codes the car, it'll turn back on

Yep:
Options are to buy a modified harness that bypasses it physically or to get it coded out yourself or by a 3rd party coder. Dealers CANNOT code this out, even if they wanted to.

I got a cable for like $30 from ebay and coded it out in maybe 10-15 minutes. Why bother with a delete harness if you can have coding capabilities at that price.
