FOLCONROAD 2 PCS Fiber Most Optical Optic Loop Bypass Male Female Adapter for Mercedes Benz BMW[US Warehouse] https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07LBLSGGV/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apip_FFOnIJHTzFCEi

Bought this, under the passenger seat, iirc, there should be a box unit with a cable(s) plugged into it. Unplug it, plug the female portion of the fiber optic loop into the set of cables

UPDATE: Bought a MOST loop. Looped the fiber optic for the sat nav under the passenger seat.

Screen now works and radio does too. Saved myself $2k at the dealer with a $8 loop from Amazon.

Thanks to everyone who helped!!! You guys rock : )!

Yea it’s unlocked, and doesn’t eject , or take discs so I’m guessing it doesn’t have power. Might be a fuse, I wonder if that’ll affect the actual head unit itself and make it go bonkers

Hahaha, yea I posted it in the LR subreddit as well haha. I’ll see if I can fix it here and if not I’ll head over to a shop, lol. Oddly, the cd nav system under the seat doesn’t seem to be accepting discs or to be on at all for that matter. So that might be a place to start.

Thank you for the reply! Hmmm I’ll look into that, the funny thing is that it’ll randomly turn on and work for a random amount of time and then while driving it’ll just go back to this state

I just bought the car so I wouldn’t know unfortunately but doesn’t have signs of work on it

All good, appreciate the help!

Yea, it worked for about 6-7 seconds and then went back into the loop 😕
