What is my phone connecting to via Bluetooth ??

Ok so here’s a good one that has got me scratching my head. I have an SE so no phone etc. However in the wagon this morning and never noticed before but on my phone Bluetooth connections it shows I’m connected to “Front”. I can see my Apple Watch connected and Bluetooth dongle but this one’s got me stumped.
I know it’s the car as when I switch off “Front” disconnects🤔

Any ideas all.

That had occurred to me but sadly I don’t have that luxury.

Now this is getting exciting!! FBH remote would be good. Previous owner never mention anything about the FBH apart from a receipt from Landrover for a FBH service. Would it be obvious where it’s located.

What about a Bluetooth media player? So you can play music via Bluetooth through the original car stereo?
Most D3’s didn’t have that option as Bluetooth wasn’t widely available and as such it was a very popular retrofit….

Thanks. Yes I’ve got a great Bluetooth dongle plugged in and can listen to music from my phone via dedicated channel on radio. I know it’s not that

Panic over. Had a good look around and discovered a bluetooth dash cam module behind the lower glove box. Thanks to all who responded.

Disco 3 Van 2009 Bluetooth modules

Hi.

I have a Disco comercial 2009. In it is a bluetooth module the oblong one. I see that there are other "Nokia" ones with a more rounded profile with a centre mounting hole. From what I see the elec and MOST connectors are the same. Is it possible I can fir the Nokia one to mine as as I think mine is faulty.

I think other nokia ones may llok similar, but on closer inspection with not work.

A lot of people fit the Discovery 4 bluetooth module (MOST connection and 2 power cables) which is a sensible way forward. (D3 poor I understand)
