SOS Malfunction after Sub and Amp Install

Hey everyone.. So I had an amp and sub installed in my car and shortly thereafter, I began to get an SOS System malfunction. Everything with my iDrive works except for the Bluetooth and Voice Control.

Does anyone have any idea what could have happened and a fix.. This is pretty frustrating not being able to use my BT!!!

Thanks.

Thanks for the reply. Where can I find the MOST connector? Sorry, I had someone install and I'll most likely tinker around with it myself to fix..

Most probably at the OEM amp (if it is Logic7)... pun intended.

SO.. after looking into the wiring and tracing it all back, there was a connector which I believe is for the SOS that was unpluggged. This was under the driver's side dash.. The wiring and everything was fine along with the MOST connector.

i made this mistake once, under the steering wheel there is a connection for the MOST, if this is broken then the optic loop will not be complete.

Did it solve the issue

Can you tell me exactly where I could find this? in the UK we have a MOST connecter in the passenger side glove compartment area. Checked that and it seems okay, but wasn't aware there is a MOST connection under the steering wheel too
