Problem solved it was a bad base piece (the one with the wires coming out) / Replaced it this morning, plugged it in and now it?s charging away

Good show. Been several out of the box bad phone snap in adapters or eject boxes reported. Assume BMW just swapped it out no charge?

**UPDATE**

I just spoke with the parts guy at Crevier BMW here in SoCal / I guess when I went to get the replacement base/eject box he actually gave me an eject box that looked exactly the same as the one I originally ordered but has different part number.

He said that he was curious why I originally asked for a different part number (the one that didn?t work) but he figured I knew something he didn?t. The part number I started with was 84-21-6-946-075 (from the Roadfly thread linked to here in a couple posts) and the one that is now in and operating correctly is 84-21-6-941-464. Again they look exactly the same and the plugs are all the same. Don?t know what the difference is?all I know is one worked and one didn?t

So in the end I ended up installing:

51-16-7-060-175 Telephone Support $19.40
84-21-6-941-464 Eject Box $104.80
84-21-0-307-726 V600 Adaptor $100.00

Works great very happy / Very Easy install / 16.1

I have the xx-946-075 eject box which is working correctly with the same adapter you have. Both the PN on the WO and on the unit itself agree. And it is not the number for the CPT9000 version either so this is truly strange. Oh well, just be happy that it works ok.
