Does anyone know the pin outs for the 6 pin cd prewire cable for an '01 330i?

Thanks

looking for it as well without much luck. There was a post here http://64.233.161.104/search?q=cache:jo05VG1IO6EJ:bimmer.roadfly.org/bmw/forums/e46/archives/68522-18.html+bmw+business+cd+pin+outs&hl=en

but it looks like it's been taken down. You can do figure out most of the pins pretty easily. Grab a multmeter, find the two pins that give you 12V, that's power. Figure out with one is ground (if the meter reads 12V the black wire is ground, if it reads -12V the red wire is ground pin)

Hold the black wire from the meter to ground, then have some one hit the track skip forward button, move the red wire around the pins until you see a voltage spike when the track skip forward is hit. That will be your track skip forward pin.

Do this for all cd functions, you should be able to find most of the pins.
