They reccomend you dont touch anything if you dont know what you are doing

The easiest one is the wire from the docking cradle somewhere behind the hand brake (emergency brake) leather cover
There should be 2 connectors from the cradle and both must be pluged in ( smaller one is antenna )


It does seem that its best left to a trained tech to check it
OK, I know the one in behind the handbrake is connected, because I connected it myself...the TCU is under the trunk carpeting, and all plugs seem to be attached securely...and I removed the small cover by the CHMSL in the rear of the roof and saw that plug connected to what appears to be a base unit for the fin. So I guess it's going to be up to the dealer techs to look into it.
