Self Installation of Dension Gateway 500
#71
You have to tap into the cd changer power source. Mine did not have a changer but the wires are there, both power and fiber optics. If you don't have the cd changer installed you will most likely have to have the system programmed. The stealership will tell you it may not work and quote you $200 plus to update (audio logic has a section on Denison). Take it to your local Indy, mine charged me less than $100 to update the system.

This is what you need to neatly splice into you factory cannon plug for your cd changer.

Not sure, I did not get the bluetooth adaptor for my Denison 500 because my 545i had factory bluetooth which would NOT stream audio by the way. I left my Dension in the 545 when I traded it in but I think I still have the box with instructions. I will give them a read to see if I can find anything on bluetooth setup.

Not sure if this is going to help. I have a Dension Gateway 500 with BTA1500. When I had my iphone, it paired fine. When I switched to my Android HTC1 M8 I had to pair both the audio and phone functions.
CD6, track 5, press fast forward, that should take you to CD 5, Track 1. Now go to CD 1 track 3 and pair the device as a audio source

As I said with the iphone I didn't have to pair it to both systems but the android I did. Very confusing!

Dension 500s
I have the connections in my glove box for a cd changer, so I hooked them all up to my dension, but no power coming from the unit, the usb lead where the green light should be on is off after connecting. I definitely have power to the unit and the fibre optic cable is the right way around ( light to left hand side of the unit) . Still can’t get it to work. Help
