potzman 0 Report post Posted February 18, 2015 So I have been loving my highly spec'ed 2004 mini cooper S, such a great little car, and the Harman Kardon audio fit was such an awesome performer. For a small package it really belted out some pumping sound. I say was as i believe the heart of the system - the Harman Kardon amp/sound processor module in the boot - has died. it ran patchy for a bit recently and before i could do some decent fault finding it has stopped altogether. Apparently after some net research it is a common thing Does anybody have one of these lying around that they perhaps removed to upgrade the stereo? or know of where i can find one? After a solution to get my pumping tunes back, its a long drive in silence... Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mzhu031 38 Report post Posted February 20, 2015 Hi Ray Have you got a working one for an E36? I ve got an E36 m3, still cracking after changing all the speakers so must be the amp! Regards Mark Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KwS 2425 Report post Posted March 17, 2015 Im a bit late, but Mark, the M3 doesnt have the Harmon Kardon system, only the Hifi system so AFAIK no standalone amp. I know the crackling you mean, it didnt happen with the old headunit and i never had a chance to investigate further. I did note that turning the bass down lessened it enough to not bother me. Might be worth checking the power and ground wiring to the headunit, and maybe running a new ground (i think i just used the one in the loom from memory, i was running low on time).
