Can't turn on car's bluetooth

Okay, so I'm trying to set up a bluetooth link between my Treo 650 (after downloading the latest CarKit update from Palm) and I can't figure out why my phone doesn't find the car. At first glance from the "Phone" menu in the car, I thought I had BT on. After carefully reviewing the Phone Manual (it isn't overly clear), I determined that in fact what I was seeing was the designation of the button to turn BT on. Problem? Nothing happens when I push this button.

What I see when I hit the phone button is a screen in which the upper menu says something like "Turn Bluetooth on to make a call." In the lower screen area directly above a middle button is displayed "BT-ON". The right side of the lower screen only displays the "return" key.

Obviously, the display "BT-ON" immediately above a button denotes that this is what you are to depress to turn it on. To support this, it appears in the manual that when BT is on, it should be displayed in the lower screen to the right side, directly adjacent to the "return" key.

I've pushed, prodded and poked this button for 30 minutes, and nothing happens. I've tried it with the car off, car on, radio off, and any number of combinations. And yes, I have the Premium package and yes, this button works under other menus.

Obviously, something is not working and this likely warrants a trip to the dealer. Any advice from anyone? Anyone else experience this problem?

Thanks for your help.
