Cradle not charging SE T616
#1
I hate to keep rehashing BT & cradle issues but I can't seem to find any help on this specirfic situation. I'm hoping someone can help me. I have a Jan '04 530. The TCU has been upgraded to support BT (a long story in and of itself but basically I got a new TCU by agreeing to split the cost of replacing the bad Dunlop RFs) and now I can pair and utilize my SE T616 without any issues. I installed the frame, eject box (part # 84-21-6-946-075) and cradle (84-21-0-304-298) myself thanks to the excellent info posted elsewhere. The ext antenna is working but the phone doesn't charge. Any suggestions? I've not seen this problem with a T610 or T616 elsewhere. Could there be yet more programming required on the new TCU to support cradle charging?
thanks!
thanks!

the problem appears to be very similar.
As I noted in the referenced thread there are those who seem to have found a different eject box might be the answer. Also reports of bad hardware (adapters or eject boxes) received.
Also make sure any coding has been done (probably so in ur case if you had new TCU installed). This is latest bulliten I am aware of on phone updates
