Basically you slap one in place of the old iPods, pair it with your phone and the music is going out the analogue wires of the 30-pin. The challenge is that it does not have a digital out, that is Ford does not detect an iPod is connected, so the dash is in external 3.5mm AUX socket mode no matter what I do. I mean there is nothing really to do except modifying the circuit, or buying something else. Is there a way to trick the system into thinking iPod is present? When it is not. or what else can I do to make bluetooth streaming from multiple sources a reality in my Falcon XR50?

I had a Kinivo one that did, but it didn't last very long.If you wire in an extra USB power source behind the dash, you can reduce the cable clutter significantly. 2 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/94772-bluetooth-streaming-anyone-done-it/#findComment-1682482 Share on other sites More sharing options...
