Re: Power socket adapter

Have you verified power at this socket. As I believe that BMW has to turn on that socket via software to enable the Fog light option that plug is used for.Another option would be to run power direct from the battery to what ever plug's you wish to use, maybe be via a fuse block.

Re: BMW Nav VI Problem - No Routes Found

You say your SEND Track to Nav VI & Then convert to a route. Why are you not just sending the Route from Basecamp to your Nav VI & doing what the previous poster said.

Re: Playing music on Nav VI on a R1200/1250RT

You play music from a NAV V or NAV IV on a bike with no radio. As long ass you have Blue Tooth headset. Link your Helmet to the NAV & away you go.

Re: Navigator V Problem

They have 5yr warranty, at least on the battery as far as I know. If you have problems still I would call Garmin, they are usually very helpful.

Re: iPod woes.

Get rid of the Ipod & put your music on a USB stick. As to volume when you have the Bike display showing your music that is playing, increase the volume using the magic wheel to the desired level.

Re: Bluetooth Connectivity

I always turn on the Sena prior to turning on the bike....works on the connecting most of the time, but occasionally they don't sync.BMW Bluetooth is very poor in that I think it is version 1.2 were as most comm systems are in version 4 or higher.
