My mistake, I recalled looking at the MMI MOST flow diagram, they call the radio = "digital radio" not regular radio. The other radio, they call satellite radio and not digital radio. He can't access the MMI because the loop is broken, when the loop is connected, I'm sure he can see it booting.

Cheers,

Louis

Ok. So what do I need to do now?

I have not used sirius or xm for several years now, so I don't need it. Can I remove or bypass this and make it work?

I just want my audio back

.

No having MMI is driving me crazy.....

I called audi dealer and asked them how to jump it and they told me it's in the front. I took off all those plastic covers and all, I could not find it. That's why I connected to battery directly from the trunk.

Update!!! It works!!!

Thanks to you all. Finally it's working. I played around with power cable and optical cable in the back. I just unplugged all the wires and put it back and like a magic, everything is working again.

Finally, I can hear my beautiful music from my B&O and no more blank MMI screen. I'm so happy it turned out this way than taking it to a dealer and get raped.

Again, I can not thank you guys enough for your great knowledge and support. That's why I love this forum. AW rocks.....
