MS3X Bluetooth capacitors
Does anyone know what capacitors are applicable for Bluetooth to work? I built my MS3X back in 14 using the Westfield guide. I believe I followed the guide and installed the basic required components and went with usb only.
Looks like I'm missing few capacitors to get it to work. From my searching thus far, it looks like C25 and C27 are applicable. Is this all/correct?

Thanks Westfield. Just want to clear things up - the image above is not the way my board is built. I just included that image as a reference to the capacitors. To reiterate the problem. I'm trying to get my EFI Bluetooth adapter to work. The adapter is powering on, but not communicating with my MS3. The adapter requires no modification, and I have the baud rates correct. I believe it is a hardware issue with my board configuration.
This is what my board looks like now. See below:
Note: I do not have the U6 chip installed, so I removed it from the diagram. Facepalm if this is why its not working.
I found a particular post referencing that this is what a minimal board should look like. With no serial..using usb? See below:
it looks like I have all the components installed as shown above.. unless the extra serial components are suppressing the Bluetooth functionality...
Actual image of my configuration:
