And the cable that goes from the depts of my centercolum to what used to be a harmony should be plugged out and replaced bij this loom? And then the yellow green and blue from the loom can go in the unused red plug of the connects 2.

Am i right? Were can i get this vul100330 loom? It isnt availible anymore. Anyone here got one?

That would be ideal as the K-Bus connection is in that cable.
It may work if you can link a cable from the K-Bus to the cable in pin 19 in the blue mini ISO connector.

Were can i find the kbus? And i should just run a wire from there and stick it in the blue is connector plug (hole 19) that comes from the connects2 and plugs into the cd changer connection of my harmony?

Make sure that this wire pin 7 of the BMW plug [red/white/yellow].

The K bus wire [white/red/yellow] from pin 7 BMW plug should be connected to

pin 19 of the blue mini iso plug.

The changer will not work unless it has a K bus connection to the main loom

in the 75/ZT.

As in the diagrams above, the K-Bus cable needs to be joined to the existing cable in pin 19, (not replace it) so that the Symphony and the Connects2 are both connected to the K-Bus.
