Kenwood 7100 Help Needed

I have installed a DNX7100 in my 06 Pathfinder. Everything seemed to be working fine (IPOD, XM, Nav). Now I have installed my Kenwood BT100 (Bluetooth). Both my XM (Terk) and the BT100 plug in to the CD Changer port on back of 7100. So I plugged the BT100 into the unit and plugged the Terk XM into the back of the BT100. I guess it will run through the Bluetooth unit. The BT100 works fine. And the song/channel/XM info appears on the 7100 screen, but I get no sound.

 

I know this board is for AVIC's mainly, but any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Disclaimer:

 

1. I do not own any NAV systems...(yet)... I have not even stayed in a holiday Inn... but I have been looking and researching NAV systems to buy one.

 

2. This is my very first post on this subject.

 

Seems I saw that the XM system has to be closest to the headunit for it to work. I think it has some signals that are not passed thru the other units. (like the bluetooth unit.)

 

Let us know if this helps.

try connecting the XM module to the head unit only.. see if that works.. I assume you can hear the head unit it self via speakers..
