Rns315 purchased from seat

[Martyns]

Are these units all plug and play , I’ve picked up a rns315 from a seat , hoping once I get the code it’s just plug and play ?
Thanks

They are indeed but as you're probably aware you will need a GPS antenna for the Sat Nav to work. If it's DAB, I'm not sure if the wiring is their to the amplifier and antenna in the rear side window.

You may need some coding to get all the additional information (phone / sat nav) to display on the MFD.

thanks, happy chappy i am then, unit cost me 200, minus 20 refund as no code, had to buy code as stealer wouldnt give it to me ! got gps recevier, thats all good, just need dab aerial, do have the shark fin on roof, but not sure if thats actually a aerial or just a dummy... i cant see any spare wires for the amp/antenna in rear side window, allthough there where 2 bnc style connectors i connected back up to the radio, this gives me standard radio, but no dab, is it stealer for the coding thats poss required ?

You'll need a dab aerial, but not all 315 had dab, only the later ones.
Select radio and it should have the option to select dab also.
IIRC one bnc connection is for the GPS aerial and other for the radio

ok so its got the dab in the radio, i have bought that up on the screen, sat nav works well with gps receiver, bluetooth finds phone, need mic, my question is the shark fin aerial on the roof, can this be used for dab reception > or do i need one of them god awful stickers on my windscreen...
thanks
