Idrive controller to quadlock
I’m about to wire in an idrive controller, I’ve got the power going to the jbe but want to be sure where to plug the can high and low wires into the quadlock.

Bus wires are not a direct connetion between the just the controller to the CIC. CIC, controller, screen, and rest of car need to be on the same can bus. Factory wiring does this at several different junction points behind the dash. For CIC retrofits, most people just connect their controller and screen bus wiring in line to what already exists behind the quadlock.

There is no need to power the controller from the JBE. Just tap into the power wire at the back of the quad lock. My first i-drive retrofit is to all the factory points for power, ground and bus for the controller and screen. My 2nd one is to the wiring in the back of the quad lock and both cars function identically.
