Bluetooth Puck "PROCESSING".
hi all,
I recently purchased a bluetooth puck to replace the V60 in my car. Before removing the V60 it worked fine, I could get it to dial and report "no signal" etc.
I can successfully get my iPhone or even my old Motorola Q paired up, but all I get is "processing" on the MFD. I have left the phone paired up for up to 30 minutes with no change. Has anyone else seen this behavior? I'm at my wits end...any help is much appreciated.

Did you just change out the handset cradle and the bluetooth puck? The reason I ask is that you are also supposed to change out the PSE module that is in the trunk. Was that changed as well?

Thanks for the response. I had a cradle and a working V60 phone with voice response and dialing. I simply pulled out the Motorola V60 clam shell and inserted the bluetooth puck. I have to change out the PSE too?
Edit: After looking in to this, thanks for leading me down this path. I didn't think it was possible to have a V60 phone without an auto-selecting PSE. The FAQ's on the subject say that one is "home free" (their words exactly) if you have a V60. Apparently, they are wrong about that.
I haven't had time to take a look yet, but I am guessing that is exactly what I have. An older style PSE.
Again, thanks for your help.

I did not have to change a thing except the blue tooth puck in my car and its a 99 build year 2000 model! Furthermore, I too have the voice command, so our setups should be identical.

Wow, this is truly perplexing then. Last night I wiped my Motorola Q and paired it up. It had no phonebook entries and was factory fresh. Still, no dice. This is a supported phone from the same manufacturer!
I Googled and found one reference to someone else having this problem. Unfortunately, there was no fix provided. I bring this up because if someone else is having exact same issue then it probably isn't a hardware fault.
Thanks for responding though, it helps to know that my car should support it at least.
Can anyone tell me where the PSE actually is in the CLK vert? I want to check its part number just to be sure...

The PSE is located in the trunk....left side behind the cover. You will need to remove the plastic around the trunk lock then the left panel to access. there are plastic clips that you pull the center square out then remove the outside part of the clip. Then remove the 2 bolts holding down the tie-down rings, and remove the trim You need a PSE with a blue label to work with the bluetooth adapter, it is referred to as "dual sense".

It was no problem, thats why this forum is here!!
I did some searching and came across this post that I think will be really helpful and will hopefully answer some of your questions. I have yet to take the bluetooth path (someday I will) so I can't offer any concrete answers but hopefully this will help.

I believe this is the "BLUE" PSE that you should have, and some extra pics for reference I guess:

I just wanted to follow up on this thread as I found a fix. Hopefully it will help someone out in the future. I didn't think it would matter but it most certainly does, at least in my case. I was using a BMW puck. Several people had come on the forums and said that they worked fine on an MB, but at least in my case, it didn't. I bought an MB one and it came right up no problem. So, I think the BMW ones work on some MB's, but certainly not all. My car is a 2003 W208 Vert with one of the last PSE's that was put in the car. Apparently, that PSE does not like the BMW puck....
