People who coded 6NH to 6NK Bluetooth Audio

tinfoil · 10-11-2013, 04:35 PM

So I lifted the cover in my trunk and saw this:

I think it is a combox.. Now how can I code this thing to allow for Enhanced Bluetooth so that I can stream music from my iPhone 5S

Change 6NH to 6NK and VO Code Combox and Head Unit.

Did you code Combox too (CMB_MEDIA)?

izen · 10-12-2013, 11:32 PM

this is my first coding ever. there is no CMB_MEDIA. it must be the missing component in the HU_ENTRY but HU_NBT may have it. i will order HU_NBT shortly.

Ok, then you have no Combox, so you can't have Enhanced Bluetooth.

With NBT, the Combox is built-in, so you only need to code HU_NBT, as there won't be a standalone CMB_MEDIA.

I'm in the same position (may acquire a 2013 F30 w/o Enhanced BT but odds have the combox in the trunk). He saw the combox in his trunk, why couldn't he code Enhanced BT?

Hunh? @tinfoil has Combox in his trunk. He has not reported back on his coding of Enhanced Bluetooth.

@izen has no Combox, thus no Enhanced Bluetooth.

Stokkes · 10-13-2013, 08:25 PM

Ack my bad. On my phone and completely missed that.

My apologies.

Stokkes · 10-15-2013, 10:07 AM

Quick question..

Does coding 6NH to 6NK also provide the ability to use the white iPhone cable instead of the Y-Adapter or is that something different as well?

Thanks

I was playing songs off of YouTube while driving the other day. Does that mean I have 6NK?

Looks like you have a MY2014, which has the new NBT head unit. All Enhanced BT functions are built in with NBT.

Yep I do. I was the first 2014 that frogman coded.

I means only that you have A2DP Bluetooth Streaming, meaning you have Enhanced Bluetooth, which may or may not be 6NK as there are other Enhanced Bluetooth Option Codes.

You can check you VIN here though to confirm you actual Enhanced Bluetooth Option Code:

Shawn,

Does coding 6NK activate the usb cable functionality. I can confirm that this MY2013 has the combox (and can be coded to 6NK) but the white iphone cable does not currently work (pre-coding)

Thanks

It should. That is part of the Enhanced Bluetooth / Combox functionality.

See, you actually have 6NS, which replaced 6NK.

I´ve got an F31, they were the first ones to get the NBT, but I didn´t get the nav neither did I choose the enhanced BT since I didn´t want to lose any audio quality (reason I chose HK-sound). This means I´ve only got the standard handsfree BT, but would I by any chance be able to code or activate enhanced BT or would it be depending on the NBT unit?
I´m curious since it is possible to get only the enhanced BT without any nav at all. But, does this mean there are 2 combox solutions for the newer F3x; 1. The known one where it´s baked into the NBT when u get nav and 2. A separate combox when u only want the E-BT without NBT-nav? Or do I have a dorment NBT-unit sitting there without me knowing

Just read your SVT with E-Sys, and if you have CMB_Media, then you have Combox.

No. You can check your trunk to see if physically you have one, as shown above in Post # 45.
