Where is the Bluetooth module in the Magotan B7?
2 Answers
It is generally located inside the car navigation system. Here is some relevant information: 1. Introduction: The Volkswagen Magotan originates from the Future B6, which is closely related to the Passat B6. It is also the first B-class sedan to be produced and sold by FAW-Volkswagen since its establishment. 2. Meaning: According to FAW-Volkswagen, "Ma" symbolizes confidence, decisiveness, and dynamism, while "Teng" represents soaring, surpassing, and passion. 3. Development: Starting from the B6, the latest Volkswagen B-class cars began to be produced by FAW-Volkswagen, known as the Magotan series. At the 2010 Paris Motor Show, the seventh-generation Volkswagen B-class car officially debuted. In 2011, the B7 continued to be introduced to the domestic market by FAW-Volkswagen and was named Magotan. To meet consumers' demand for comfort, the B7 was also natively lengthened, referred to by the media as the Magotan B7L, or the all-new Magotan.
The Bluetooth module of the Magotan B7 is usually hidden behind the glove compartment on the passenger side, and it can be seen by removing the glove box. I replaced it myself before—first, empty the glove box, press both sides to slide it out. The black plastic box inside is the module, with a plug connected to a blue label. However, the location may vary depending on the model year. A friend mentioned that the 2012 model has it at the bottom of the glove box, while the 2014 and later models might have it moved behind the center console CD player. Before starting, it's recommended to turn off the engine and remove the key, using a plastic pry tool to avoid forceful pulling. If unsure, it's better to seek a professional mechanic, as the module's wiring is delicate and breaking it could lead to more complicated repairs. The OEM module also requires programming via a computer for proper matching, which is why many people choose to have it handled at a 4S shop.
