Jay, you seem to be on top of this. I have a 97 740i with the TV option. When I bought it, the TV did not work at all. I went to the site (http://home.t-online.de/home/tom.martens/repair.htm) and followed the sequence described. It worked - sort of. I get a great picture/sound when the car is not moving. Underway, the picture is scrambled. If you solve this one, a lot of us would be interested! sa_jones@bellsouth.net
