06 ML350 Sirius Tuner
06 ML350 Sirius Tuner
I have dug through everything I can find for a couple of hours now.
I decided to try adding a Sirius tuner to my 06 ML350. Picked it and antenna splitter up on the auction site.
The car appears to be prewired for it- almost...
I have two Fiber Most lines with caps on them under the rear driver side seat.
I assume those connect to the tuner.
Obviously they are not in-line right now, and I cannot for the life of me find the other end. I thought I remembered them behind the Comanche unit, but I guess I was wrong.
I also have a coax for the antenna input under the seat. It does go to a blue coax connection behind the Comand unit in the dash.
The Comand unit only has the two coax / Fakra connections. Gh th splitter and the output of the splitter into the Comand.
So...
What I am missing is:
Where the other end of the fiber connectors are
Confirmation of wiring into Comand with splitter
Cable and connector for power and control- there were two other connections under the seat in a cover labeled “UHI”. Nothing that fit the tuner box though.
Any help or guidance would be appreciated. Any pics of a factory install would help.
Thanks!!!

Also forgot to ask about the tuner itself.
The one I bought has two Fakra connectors in it- a blue and a white.
I see others have just a blue.
Both versions claim to be for 06 ML350.
Which version is correct?
