I'm not an S-owner, but I would guess that the other end of that cable goes to where ever the satellite antenna would have been installed if it had been included as a factory option.

I have a 2004 S600 which was also pre-wired for Sirius however I am having some difficulty with the antenna that I am hoping you could help me with. When I started installing the unit I found the prewired power and fiber connector and I was able to route the fiber optic so my head unit sees the Sirius module but it just keeps saying "Acquiring Signal". I have a small "portable" type Sirius antenna hooked up with a FAKRA adapter. However when I was digging around by all of the other components in my trunk I found two loose FAKRA type plugs zip tied together, one blue (which is keyed to fit into my Sirius module antenna port) and one white which is not. I tried to just hook up the unused blue connector but got the same "Acquiring Signal" message. Does anybody have any info as to the blue and white unused FAKRA plugs? Do I have to hook them up in some way elsewhere? Any help would be very appreciated. Also any further word on finding the single fiber optic "jumper" wire. The way I got mine to see the Sirius module was to unplug both fiber leads from my CD Changer which plugged directly into my Sirius fiber plug. So no CD Changer while I have the Sirius installed but then again I probably wouldn't use the Changer with Sirius working. Thanks, Brian
