Exclamation Nokia phone cradle wont detect any phone.

Hey,

I have a MB S-class S500 y2000 and i have problem with the nokia phone cradle. IT wont detect any phone attached to it. Tryed 3 different Nokia phones and one brand new ViseeO MBU 3000+. The phones wont turn on neither they charge, is just wont react like nothing is attached to it.

In the command when i pres "tel" i shows "tel error" and "no phone"

I had some look at it and they found out that the phone antenna wasn't connected to another antenna under the armrest. They connected it togheter, but it still wont work.

Has anyone here experience'd this problem before, that can help me?

I will be thankfull for any help!

The factory phone system is analog and will no longer work

If there's not even power to the cradle it was likely disabled long ago by a prior owner . It may have been modified to work with their phone at that time .

Thanks for quick answer.

I found out that the car had the old Motorola system,before the nokia cradle. I also checked that the antenna was connected to it and they Power cable. Both of them was fine. But i Cant find the problem.

Any suggestions? 😀
