I had a couple of internal module faults. Fitted a replacement module today and no codes, but there is still no dab signal! Does anyone have a pic of the DAB amplifier unit? I’m wondering if it’s possible to fit a stick on aerial which would plug into the dab module. |

Is this the aerial amplifier unit?

I had no DAB for a while in our Evoque. Told it could be a profile issue. Deleted profile from car after signing out from inControl. Turned off/on again and recreated profile. Parked car in guaranteed good reception area (full bars) and waited patiently. After about 10 mins all DAB stations re-appeared and have stayed ever since.

I gave up on the DAB issue. Yes I believe the fault is the amplifier - but the consensus appears to be that the DAB radio is rubbish anyway, and I can stream any content from my phone through a BT adapter/aux socket. Hence I didn't proceed with trying to fix it. If you get it fixed please post the results.

Having spent a bit more time looking for it on the interweb , its really confusing... none of the adverts I can see have "DAB" in any of the titles. and there appear to be many different amplifiers with different part numbers... have you managed to get yours out from under the roof lining? there are two so worth googling those part numbers to see what you can eventually work out is the DAB one.... |

I haven’t. I hoped the new module would sort the issue, which it hasn’t! I then found a bit of info about plugging a normal dab aerial into one of the aerial connections on the module, but it still won’t work. I’m not spending any more time on it and will just use phone linked to aux. |

yes, passenger side. I have contemplated doing that. But I'll do it when I have both replacement parts to hand. I don't think I've ever seen such awful technical documentation. strange that there appears to be FM aerials and amplifiers both sides (I've not checked the driver side to prove whats over there.. but I might just for completeness). |

My drivers side had lost power, and the FM was just mono |

Looking at a old Microcat epc, the the DAB amplifier is the grey one part no. LR016258 on Vin No. up to BA999999 fitted on the N/S, from Vin No. CA000001 on it is L/R029702 and is fitted on the O/S assuming the illustration are correct.

thanks for the replies. I bought the grey part but no joy though. Exactly the same (No reception on DAB2). I had already replaced the DAB unit (behind the drivers side/boot rear trim). Even if I leave the amplifier completely unplugged there's no change to the status on the screen.
