Yes, they pair fine, but try calling out via the car and they don't ;)


What do you mean 'calling out via the car'? I can make calls on both using the MMCS interface OR using the actual handset itself.

That being said, the MMCS interface is full of crap. Why do I need to press so many buttons just to redial someone? Tap MENU, tap PHONE, tap REDIAL LIST, tap the person, tap CALL, tap YES... now really.. I also can't stand the confirmation of whether I want to call someone or not. Maybe in the old days when calls were expensive people wanted to be 'sure' but nowadays with calls being dirt cheap, why oh why are they making my life difficult?! (and the steering wheel controls can't be substituted for call)

I mean by either dialing the number via voice (non-MMCS cars) or by using the in-car phone book to select a number...

Unless the MMCS works with it :S

Do you know if you have the BT phone module under the dashboard (above glovebox, behind that panel) or does the MMCS do all the BT controlling?

It works when I use the MMCS to select a phone number from the MMCS phone book (i.e. not the phone book on the handset) to dial. AFAIK there is no way to search the phone book of the handset directly from the MMCS- all you can do (for all phone models) is to enable BT on the handset and send over the Bluetooth business cards manually (or all of them).

As for the BT phone module, as far as I know the MMCS controls all aspects of the bluetooth (as well as voice controls) and the steering wheel controls connect up to the MMCS- there is no need for a second control module especially when everything is software driven. I could be wrong on this topic though.

Hmmm interesting... Sorry if I made it look like you are stupid with my earlier posts, did not intend to. Didn't realise the MMCS controlled the BT insted of the separate module like ours.

Our wheel controls go via the headunit also,but over the CAN bus they travel to the BT unit.

Very interesting indeed...

It's alright, and it's making me wonder if we should start a separate thread for compatibility with MMCS? After all there is a wealth of knowledge on these forums and I think the next big step for CCJ would be to organise it into the leading resource for all drivers.

ps. I cannot confirm the unit in the MMCS cars is different but it would appear that the MMCS unit controls everything independently.

I have recently got an iPhone 3GS and whilst it seemed to pair fine and connect initially I tried to connect yesterday and it didn't want to co-operate.

Will update again when I have a chance to play with it again.

The Johnson Website says my phone is compatible (pre ver 3.0 call wait isn't) so maybe I have done something wrong in the pairing phase of things. Will reset and pair again later today. Also need to plug in and see if ipod functionality works the same as my ipod did before I washed it in my work pants :(
