ILX 2013 Location of handsfree bluetooth module
Does anyone know where the handsfree Bluetooth module is located in the 2013 ILX? Any instructions or pictures would be greatly appreciated.

Hi guys,
After going through multiple forums and doing a ton of research, the two places where I thought the Handsfree Link Module would have been on my Acura 2013 ILX Base model were the overhead dashboard under where the dome/map lights are or under the passenger dashboard undercover below the glove box. I checked at these two spots and I couldn't find the module there. My car's Phone button in the center console and the buttons on the steering wheel don't work. It simply doesn't take me to the next screen on the display where I can try to pair my phone. It stays there either on the Audio screen or the wallpaper. I checked and there is no specific fuse for the Handsfree Link module. I took the car to a dealership earlier and they checked all the buttons were plugged in. As I went there late in the afternoon for a recall work, they gave me an appointment for another day with the technician and said that they'll have to diagnose the issue and charge 160 dollars. I can buy a used HFL module online or even a new one but the question is i need to know if the one already on the car is faulty or it is missing or it is simply unplugged by the previous owner.
Does anyone have any idea where to look next? If anyone has access to the service manuals for Acura 2013 ILX Base model, can they please guide me in the right direction.
Thank you in advance for the help.

Welcome to the forums. I deleted the identical posts you made in the TSX and 3G TL forums as redundant.

Hi, I have the same problem on my 2013 ILX tech model, have you figured any solution. My dealership wants to charge me almost 700$ to repair. Any advice on how to resolve this problem ?
