I was trying to install the SmartTop module as well as the BAVSOUND speakers for my convertible and in trying to open convertible lock panel, I broke the flex circuit. Here are the pictures where I pushing the top lock manually.
What is that even for? It is not on the other side. What's my solution at this point? Thanks in advance! (Even stranger thing is that everything with the top is working fine!) Here is the wiring diagram: https://www.newtis.info/tisv2/a/en/f...ule/1VnYWO6Pav Seems like this is the S35 module on the left hand side of the wiring diagram? The one with the LIN? There are no codes. |

That could be temporary bypassed if you can find the other end. You can pm me and I can talk you through it its a lot to type, and you would need some basic electronics tools like a soldering iron and a steady hand. I am.not sure what it does but it can be made to work until a replacement can be obtained.

I am absolutely baffled at what this is. It is on the opposite side of the antenna so I don't think it is that either. I see the flex circuit running UNDER the convertible lock installation and not going anywhere beyond that, as in I can remove the entire convertible top locking assembly and see the flex circuit underneath it. WTF. This is an antenna of sorts? I think? The convertible top lock is working fine. So at this point I am more curious than anything else. What is this? |

The way I look at it, I haven't turned to radio of any sort in more than 15 years. It went out for me just like cable did... so am I going to miss the FM amplifier? Nope However I have ordered the part; who knows someday wife would like to "tune in" for nostalgia's sake haha |
