TB was kind enough to Tech2 my 2013 yesterday and said that the unit was not talking to the aerial connectin for the sat nav. I have had it all apart today and everything is conneted OK. Now I have put it all back together it spits the satnav disc out when I start the car and still wont pick up. I have had a look at the aerial connectin and only one of the 3 connections that are there is connected but there is only one connection from the aerial anyway is this normal.

Any Ideas anyone

Thought that the aerial stubby had 2 co-ax cables on the base :-?

Its not a stubby on the estate I have and my ald 3.0 elite estate had a normal one aswell but I can't remember how many connections it had.

I have the NCDC2013 as well and my aerial has a larger base than my mates Elite had and I think that is where the GPS receiver sits.

Yep, there should be at least two coaxial connectors from the aerial - on mine there are three (I suspect on all of them, in fact):

One fat push-fit connector = radio
One small screw-fit connector = GPS
Other small screw fit connector = telephone (unused on my car, but still connected to the car loom)

I can't remember which of the two small connectors is the GPS and which is the telephone.. I think the female connector (aerial side) is the GPS and male the telephone.

Looks like I have the wrong base then, but why would it have been taken off :-/ :-/

As said in the other thread, will take a pic of a spare I have in the garage in a bit and post it on here....

Pics as requested...

Now i'm even more confused :-/ mine has 3 connectors but two look bigger than that only one off them look the correct size. is there another plug that fits that ie male and female.

I have a 2001 Elite with inbuilt satnav as well as inbuilt phone.  possible that it may be different without the telematics.  Will check The Big Book for part numbers and get back to you....

Looks like three seperate parts.  If you have seperate cables, yours is the first one.

Hold on, my last was for phone in all three, not just satnav...

[joff]

It's the car loom that has 3 connectors. the base on mine at the moment only has one for the radio. :-?
