Help Me!!! Re: Car Kit

I'm new to all this. I've just bought a 5 series BMW and it has a hands free kit in there already. I have never used car kits in my life.
The kit looks like a CARK-91 (not sure of the exact model). The holder is wired (can't disconnect it).
The problem is I have a Nokia 6230.
Is there anyway I can change the holder so my 6230 can work on it or do I have to change the whole car kit?
Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks for that seraphim. I just spoke to BMW and they can't help. All they stock is bluetooth kits now.
Someone told me you can clip off the holder with the wire from a box which is usually under the dashboard. Is that true? And then can I replace it with a 6230 holder and wire?
Really appreciate your help.

  • Can't connect or reset Nokia 616 car kit

    I've just bought a used car which has Nokia 616 Car kit fitted. I can't connect as either user and I can't get to the infamous standby screen to get into the menu to do a reset of the settings. I've tried holding down the "hang up" button to get to the screen but nothing.
    I really would like to get this piece of kit working as I will find it very useful.
    Any help is very appreciated.
    Thanks
    Ant

    Not sure myself, but tyr disconnecting the power from the kit as I think that will reset it.
    If not go into the bluetooth menu of the kit and reset it
    Please see the attached link with the instruction book

    Please stop posting in ALL UPPER CASE; it is considered SHOUTING, is harder to read, and is considered rude.
    If you have not yet done so unpair the car kit from the phone, or better yet reset it completely, Forget the car kit in the iPhone, and pair it anew.

  • Unable to manage volume with my bluetooth car kit

    I have a bluetooth car kit Parot CK-3000 and the volume is very low and I can't change it with my new Nokia phone 6120. With my previous phone (Sony-Ericsson, SPV) it was running well but with my new phone I can't change the volume of my bluetooth car kit and I can't manage it with the specific menu.
    Can you help-me on this subject ?
    Thank's in advance.

    Hi fct24
    I don't know which firmware version your phone is running, key in *#0000# on standby screen as there have been several posts in the past concerning this issue.
    Do you have to set Parrot up as an "enhancement", I know "headset" will be listed but is there a "car kit" option?
    Is Parrot using their latest software?

  • Car Kit Pairing with Peugeot 407

    Hi all,
    I have an iPhone 3G with iOS4 and a bluetooth car kit (manufacturer's) in my Peugeot 407SW.
    Problem : My iphone pairs with the kit, it receives calls and I can make calls. However, when I go to the Telephone Directory and the Calls List, every entry is named as 'battchg' - so I have to scrutinise the numbers to see who I am calling - which is pointless.
    So, wither all of my friends and family need to change their names to battchg or - can someone help please ???!!!
    Thanks
    o10

    4.1 does not fix everything as my Peugeot 407 does not ring when I have an incoming call, it's silent and I have to watch the screen on dash which defeats the object. Also it just says incoming private number, please sort this out apple. Thanks.

  • Car kit in Saab9-3

    I have just acquired a Saab 93 registered Jan 04 on a 53 plate, so not very old. It has a Nokia car kit fitted to a built-in system with antenna, mike and steering wheel controls. There is a box under the dash labelled Nokia type HFU-4 with sockets for DC/Phone/Mic/Speaker and Handset (not used).
    The only Nokia 'phone I have is a 7600. On plugging in the connector I get "not supported" message. The 'phone holder is not an issue as the connector can be removed from it and plugged straight into the 'phone. Is the problem to do with software within the 'phone??
    Thanks for any help.

    None of the car kits supporting you phone have HFU-4 handsfree unit.

  • Nokia 6230i and VW Car Kit

    Hi all,
    I have recently bought a mk.5 golf with factory fit car kit and sat nav. I thought this was a good idea as all the warranty work and problems with it then point to VW!!!
    However, a few days after recieving the car my phone went pear shaped, so i had it exchanged by Vodafone. Found that the software version has also been upgraded on it.
    Since my new phone it hasn't worked in the kit. Other 6230's and 6230i's do!!
    Anyone else had this problem?? it does some really strange things!!!!
    Grrrrrr........
    Thanks

    Well after many phone calls trying to sort this problem, it appeared to be a Software problem on the phone!!
    Nokia are always doing things to improve their phones, but sometimes it just makes it worse.
    My old phone was running software version 3.62 i have recently upgraded to phone running v3.70 and all is ok again!!
    Must have been a temporary glitch in the software.
    Hope this helps all!!

  • Nokia 6230i and Mercedes car kit

    Help.
    My phone is no longer working in my mercedes command car kit. If I fiddle with it it does intermittently pick up but does not charge it and often does not work properly eg unable to close a call. I've asked Mercedes to check the kit and apparently it's not a problem with the command system or phone cradle. The advice I've been given is that it could be the software or the charge block in the phone. Has anyone had a similar experience or can give advice. Thanks.

    Hi mhickman
    The PopPort connector on the bottom of the phone is notorious, but you could try cleaning the contacts with a pencil eraser which may improve matters. As this is not a Bluetooth connectivity matter, I don't think software is implicated in this issue.
    If you ever want to upgrade your phone you can change UHI cradle from 6230i to a 6310i one which you could probably find cheaply on Ebay and use a ViseeO MU-1000 Bluetooth module which fits in the cradle.

  • Problem connecting a 6310i to a CARK-112 car kit

    Hi,
    I'm trying to connect a 6310i to my CARK-112 car kit.
    The Nokia phone detects the car kit as "Carkit 112" but when I hit select to pair with it I do not get the option to enter a passcode, instead it displays "device not available"
    The car is secondhand and had the car kit previously fitted, I have located the brain and have the appropriate 4 digit passcode.
    Anyone done it or can help me?
    John.

    It sounds like the cark-112 has all the connections full, you will need to reset the car kit. Press and hold the buttom for 5 seconds and you should hear a long bleep. Try this with ignition off.

  • 6310i car kit

    Hi
    Am just in the process of swapping cars and would like to take my car kit with me - the current car is being scrapped so can pull out the wires if needs be.
    Love my 6310 and refuse to go to Bluetooth so if anyone has any ideas about where I can get additional wires and an installation guide for this car kit I would be most grateful.
    Dannyboy - hope you might have the answer judging by your experience?!

    /discussions/board/message?board.id=accessories&thread.id=101
    I discussed wiring diagram on the above earlier thred, If you remove everything carefully you should not need any more parts, you may want to contact a local cellular engineer to do the job, it may be quicker and safer also he will have any extra parts you may need.
    Good Luck.

  • E66 with Audi SAP Bluetooth Car Kit

    Hi
    I've been using my E66 with my Audi A6 SAP car kit for two weeks now. Unlike my E51 which works fine the E66 connects ok then after about 1 or 2 minutes disconnects. After another 30 seconds or so it reconnects to the car kit. It seems that if I make or receive a call during the first minute then the E66 will remain connected. If I don't it will enter the disconnect / connect cycle.
    Is anybody else having the same problem?
    Cheers
    James

    The generic problem you have with Car Kits made for Car Manufacturers and phones is that both companies are very inclined not to talk to one another, and when you try and find out why its failing each will blame each other.
    The problem may quite probably be resolved by a software update, either in the phone or the car.
    You can check the Nokia site to see if an update is available for your phone.
    The Audi update will have to be done by your local Audi Centre, which can be tricky to do to say the least, because they tend to stall, and give a self-righteous attitude towards the customer trying to tell them how it is.
    I'd check with a few local Audi Centres.
    The list of compatible handsets, is always out of date, and you get phones like the 6230 etc they dont really pay much attention to it.
    I found that my S3 kit which is not SAP, would disconnect when my phone left the range of my WLAN, sometimes if I restarted the phone before I got it, it wouldn't disconnect at all.
    I don't get it at all with my E71.

    I will mostly be communicating with a Nokia E72 Zodium Black

  • Alltel 8130 and Nissan Bluetooth Car Kit

    HELP!!! New Nissan Altima with Bluetooth Car Kit.  I am able to pair no problem, make and receive call without a hitch.  Downloaded phone book with ease.  The problem is whenever I use the phone with the car kit after I exit the car the phone locks up, keys do not respond and I have to do a battery pull to reset the phone.  No problem until I use the phone in the car again (with the bluetooth kit).  Any help or suggestions are appreciated.  I do have the latest OS (4.5.0.89).
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Problem Solved: I went to Alltel store and they adviced I do a manual disconnect from the phone before I turn off the car, this seemed to work so since I placed ther Bluetooth icon on the frontpage of my phone it seems to be working fine without having to manually disconnect.  I do not quite understand why it works now but it does.
