Not if you copy it from the unknown source.

Jake 'has people'...

Hello BigDawg, here was my experience, when I added OEM TV tuner to my A8L, I had the added wiring harness which had a power supply lead for the Tu tinner, which I just placed on the power post in the driver side of the trunk right there with the nav, DVD, and all the other components, I did this just as a temporary hookup for testing, well it all was working fine and I was sitting there watching a movie and it all went out with this clicking sound coming from the trunk, the clicking is from all the components right there in the driver side trunk, it was my temporary hookup of the power supply wire fell off.

So this leads me to believe you have a power issue, and did you check the fuses in the trunk on the drive side, I think there are (5) or so.

I give up today, my spelling sucks, and my eyes thought the spell check was right, it's TV Tuner

Fresh ideas won't help if you are not following advises. To check optic connections behind the glove box was the first think to do. Problem is most likely between Front Information Display Control Head Control Module J523 and Data Bus On Board Diagnostic Interface J533. They are both behind the glove box next to each other.
