Kath,

Are the schematics for the connection of the Blaupunkt craddle? If so can you please send me a copy please. I can connect the craddle myself and save me ajourney back to the dealer.

Much appreciated,

Stewart

Alan, I had exactly the same problem as you did. Radio worked fine, and Satnav worked too except that commands weren't played via the radio (although it did mute the radio whilst playing commands through the Satnav only). Having seen this thread I decided to investigate as my dealer is some way off.

At the back of the radio are a number of multiway plugs. There is a blue one and a green one that are linked to the cable coming from the active cradle. Both appeared to be plugged in but with a gap in between them. After a little examination I realised that the 2 plugs are designed to be slotted into each other first and then plugged into the back of the radio. Hey presto! everything now works as it should.

I'd noticed from day one that the radio front doesn't seem to be a particularly good fit into the dash and when I removed the radio I realised why. The Blaupunkt radio relies on having a standard DIN aperture to fit in to. On my Bolero it was just slotted into the gap left when the lower storage pocket was removed (not a standard DIN aperture). Having made enquiries of Fiat, it would appear that the factory fit radio would have a dedicated facia. After a bit of searching I have tracked down a double DIN facia plate designed for the Ducato. The spare DIN aperture comes complete with a small storage box (which can be used to attach the mounting bracket for the Satnav). The facia should arrive on Saturday so I'll know then if my "cunning plan" works!

Not sure if that is the way Swift intended the radio to be fitted or if there should have been a facia plate to mount it correctly.
