Hi Guys, I bought i545 M BMW from this person who took out the speaker, the Radio face mask, promising to replace them with a more batter system and after that I haven't seen or heard from him ever since that day! Now I am force to buy and reinstall these componence myself plus fix other things like the SOS and perhaps pull the CCC apart to see connection are loose because the CCC light doesn't
OK just a suggestion now that you have done that remove the air filters from the - under the hood remove the plastic bottom panel you will see a well look for water markings if you C water markings reached down to the bottom for a rubber grommet if there is a rubber grommet pull it up take it out water is getting in there and shorting out the systems if you pull the rubber grommet out then if water gets in there it just drains down-and-out from under the car
Thanks for this great video from down under, were in the U.K have a 2021 BMW replaced the display screen, now displays error in the dtc's as 'NO SIGNAL' ?? any ideas? thanks and bless
Someone posted a video that shows that the faceplate for the e90 CCC unit may actually be the culprit. When he swapped the faceplate from a used unit with the unit causing issues it worked. Someone else then figured out that a chip on the faceplate board needs to be resoldered. So basically no replacement necessary. Just soldering.
Thanks for showing without removing the key. Funny mine works when the battery unplugged overnight then when I plugged right up only works for few minutes start flicking like on your video.. idk tf wrong with it. Got new battery installed.

hey mate, thank you for the video and your channel! I am from cologne, germany and I have an issue with my CCC as well. Its a little bit different though, but maybe someone in the community has an idea what to do. So here is the problem. The navigationsystem in my CCC doesn't start up. And I do mean ONLY the navigationsystem. The iDrive (I think it's called that way) works perfectly, I can navigate through the whole software except the maps navigationsystem. Someone told us that the whole DVD-drive of the CCC is broke, so we exchanged it for another unit, but it's still the same issue (we only exchange the DVD-drive not the whole boardcomputer). So my guess is it's a softwareproblem. So I bought a new (original) BMW Navigation DVD Road Map Europe PROFESSIONAL 2019, but my CCC does not read the disc. It does not say there is a disc in the drive at all (we tried it with both DVD-Drives) so again I think the problem is within the software. Does anybody have any suggestions of how to do a firmware update of the CCC or any other ideas of how to fix the problem. The next BMW partner here wants 1800 € for the update and this is just ridiculous for putting some software on a boardcomputer... Thank you for any ideas and tips in advance - appreciate it! Keep up the good work!

Zero To 60 not yet. I’ve noticed I’m no longer getting power to my ccc fan, so I’m wondering whether it’s worth swapping the power cable out or swapping the entire unit out. From your past experience, once the ccc starts rebooting (intermittently on say half an hour intervals), is it worth swapping the entire unit out? Or do you feel I can save it?
No, you will need to recode. It’s just a matter of re-writing the correct vehicle order to the car. Then power the ccc down/reset it, but holding the volume knob and eject buttons and you should be good to go.
Hi Mate, have got an Idrive on a 535d 2005 year, screen is completley blank, won't come up with 'bmw'or anything just an unlit screen with nothing.

Thanks again guys (2005 BMW 325i e90 MSport)
Its nearly always the main CCC unit itself that causes this. The cheapest way to fix it is with a second hand unit. You just need to get one that has come from a car with same screen as your car. All the other options (like stereo setup) are configurable. But even with out the audio side configured you can plug the replacement unit it and make sure it powers up and check menus etc. There were companies repairing these, but the repairs dont seem to last like a brand new unit, so for the cost we think a second hand unit is the way to go.
@@ZeroTo60Tube Yup, I don't doubt you. It must be the CCC unit. Speaking of second hand units, would going to a pick & part or such, benefit me in anyway? Or are there specific websites I could visit instead ... am from New Zealand :) I'll definitely make sure to match the units making sure it fits and is suitable for my car. Thanks
@@Bruce_T I would try a pick a part for sure. Or even eBay for second hand ones. To confirm basically any E90, E92 or E93 unit will work as long as the vehicle its coming from has the screen as your car. If you can match the stereo/amp setup to your car, you shouldn't need to do any coding.
Great video man I have replaced my ccc just today and there was no audio I guess I need to do the coding but I have never did coding before how was the process done? Please thanks u
@@maliknexus I bought a ccc unite from a guy in New York but I’m in ct he shipped it to me and I installed it but had it coded at a local shop near me and it’s working perfect now!
Hey quick question I am going to send my CCC unit to a third party for repair on 2006 bmw 330i so I will take it out and ship it. But it will take about two weeks before I get it back. Will I still be able to drive the car without the unit? I need to for work. Also how much would it cost to just buy a unit and replace the CCC.
No not difficult at all. We just read the vehicle order using NCS expert then re-wrote the same vehicle order to all the modules, that re-configured the CCC unit and it was just a matter of powering down the CCC then turning back on and everything worked perfectly.
I have bmw 525xi I have the same problem. where can I get cc unit and around what price. Also how can I tell which model I need for my specific car. Sorry for so many questions /: but you video is very helpful thank you
The CCC units can range from $50 second hand to $800. It depends who is selling it and what version it is. To work out what one you need, the easiest way is probably by starting with the screen. Is yours a wide screen like this one in the video or a more square screen?
No, well im not sure actually. CCC is not vin locked, so if the vehicle spec if the same it will just work. However if the donor vehicle had different options coding may be required.
hey so i bought a used e90 and im pretty sure i bought a used unit for the back and installed it and had a mechanic go over the car witha reader and told me the head unit was dead and was likely the problem my screen doesnt turn on at all all i get is door chimes when its plugged in. any ideas ?
I'm diagnosing a 2007 BMW 525XI 3.0L, L6, USA/Canada with the same issue, how do I prove this without swaptronics? I can see on my autel that the signal intermittently gets "interrupted" but with the unit electrical connections exposed, where should I be focused as far as the drop out? Is it to the monitor or elsewhere?
If you screen boots for a second then shuts down like this in the vid, it will be the CCC module. The only way to test is to swap it with another one, or send yours off for repair. I am yet to see a screen die, its always the CCC.
Hi mate I’ve got a 2011 BMW f10 520d the IDRIVE screen does not come on at all also the radio and volume doesn’t work either any ideas on what it can be?
My CCC unit boots, but the screen has trouble displaying. All idrive features work as they should, but the screen is freaking out sometimes. Is it the screen itself? I can still navigate the idrive system, the main issue is the backlight of the screen, and occasionally it has trouble displaying as well
So I have a 2013 535i that the idrive controller does not work in. The screen seems to be fine, but there is no power or ground to the controller. could this be a similar problem?
This has been really useful, I just need help finding the right ccc and idrive, if I get an aftermarket one will I have to have a certain/different or same ccc? By same obviously a new ccc just the same one I have in my 05 525i rn.
my ccc idrive is completely fried and would probably need a replacement. is there anyway i can just upgrade to a carplay unit without getting another ccc or do i need another ccc idrive unit?
One question do u guys have a shop in Denver? I have the same problem I took it over to the bmw dealer and they charge a lot just to tell me what it’s wrong with it.
Hey man, MY IDRIVE WORKS (E60) SOMETIMES THEN THE KNOB DOES NOTHING. Also no sound AT ALL. In the glove compartment, the plug has the red light, so then its not the radio ccc right?
Hi I have a 320i bmw 2014 , my screen went black I can still use the radio and my phone connects but screen is black, I spoke with the previous owner and told my he put an after maker backup camara. Do you think that could be the problem?
It could be something as simple as the display cable is not seated in the back of the ccc unit properly. Generally the CCC wont power on when its broken so if you have audio it owuld be worth investigating all the connections on the back of the CCC unit. Many years ago you used to have to run an interception box for the backup camera. So maybe the box has died. Let us know how it goes.
Question: Do you happen to know if you need the CCC unit to work in order to replace it with the Android 10 units? I have the same unit in my E90 as this coupe in the video, but mine doesn't even turn on at all. In fact, the HU would stay on even after powering the car off, which made me have to remove the fuse. If I buy an Android unit I would like it to work with the knob (which is just spinning as of now) and the CD reader (but that might not happen unless I replace the CCC)??? I'm worried that if I buy the Android unit, plug it in, it still won't work because of the CCC unit being completely dead. Thanks in advance.
Yes, unfortunately if your vehicle has a CCC unit, you need that unit working in order for the android to work. The androids just plug in to the aux in on the CCC and really just work as a dummy display over the top of the CCC. If you have any other questions just let us know.
@@ZeroTo60Tube hi guys im having the same issue as him. when car is started, radio, ac everything works, expect I drive. screen won't light up or display anything however, with a black screen my buttons still work and I can't "control" the unit. Im really worried, do you guys have any ideas?
Hi guys I wanted to ask you a question. Practically I'm doing an update from a CCC bisness to a CCC professional on a BMW E90 but when I mount everything I hear the CD player that works but I have no image on the screen nor does it seem to sound practically dead. Can anyone tell me an answer to the possible problem.
I am gonna replace my screen. Am I going to need to reprogram it. 525XI 2006.I tried to put a 2008 535XI on but the screen was just showing squiggly lines.

I have an 04 530i and my only issue so far is the I drive constantly restarting and lagging or not outputting stereo sound. Would this be it or is that more of the micro power module at fault?
Hey, love the videos. So I bought a bmw 2014 328d a week ago, my Idrive is stuck on the bmw logo I can’t use anything, not even my sound system. Any suggestions on what may be wrong. And if I can fix it by my self or would I have to get a mechanic to fix it?
And forgot to mention the previous owner used one of thoses big car speakers as there sound system idk if that plays a part as to why my idrive doesnt work
I have just ordered a new CCC for my 2006 330i it is same model modul 1 PL2 so will it be plug and play once I swap it out for my non working one? Or will I have to get it coded at a shop
As long as the car is came from has the same stereo config as your car, it will work. If not coding will be needed. Basically just plug it in and see how it works. With a bit of luck you should be ok.
When i googled it last year there were a few that came up. Sorry i can't remeber anything specific, but search for CCC repair and send some enquiries out.
I’ve got a 2005 E60 525i. The I drive tries to come on the screen and falters. The knob seems to be very free moving ( don’t know if that’s how they are) . Any ideas ?
Do you get any sound or voice command from steering wheel? If not likely the CCC unit just needs to be replaced. If you get sound, it can be the screen, the cable or the CCC
Hi, graet video. I have done the swap on my wifes e91-06 with a great spec including Nav-pro except the audio (wonder why). After the swap all worked except the audio. The donator car was a -08 M3 with individual audio an updated CCC with the buttons. Wifes car has only standard-audio. Though I did not succeed to access the new ccc with NCS E I decided to let a workshop do the job. The vehicle order om the M3 diff pretty much from wifes car meaning the CCC included several modules not present in our car. The workshop succeeded to get the vehicle order fixed so now the CCC is back to stock, but the audio is still not working. I explained the issue as far as I could to the serviceman. He told that they only reprogrammed and updated the whole car to latest fw. The audio issue did he not have a clue about except suggest to buy a new ccc from BMW, huh! I suppose my issue is that simple that the power amp onboard the CCC is set "nicht active"? Though I still got the issue to not get the CAPPL ECU working with the NCS E, get fault codes and the reading is aborted. How did you solve the similar problem you had with the car in the video?
Where can I purchase a used rhd bmw like this I already have a 07 bmw 525i Lhd but I needed a car and couldn't find a rhd, comment for info near Los angeles
Its a relatively easy thing, once you have the software setup. But i would recommend putting aside 2-4 hours to learn how to set the software up and do the coding. We coded it using NCS expert and NCS dummy.

That could be a tough one. It almost sounds like something is shorting out. Do you have the unit with the amp in the boot? If you do i would start disconnecting modules and see when the noise stops, then you might be able to start tracing the issue back.
Thank you very much! I will try that tomorrow. In the boot there is PDS-Steuergeraet. I don't know what that does. This problem it start, when I start the car the eye brow start flashing then I unplugged the aairbag in the drivers door and it stayed on. I don't know fix that's start? Thankfully

No any ccc will work, but it may require coding. If you can get one from the same spec car, so same screen same amplifier and speaker setup it will plug and play for most features.

@@maliknexus I bought a ccc unite from a guy in New York but I’m in ct he shipped it to me and I installed it but had it coded at a local shop near me and it’s working perfect now!
@@Beastmode23564did you ever figure it out?
@ i sold the car but i had a specialist code the unit for me and it worked this was exactly 4 years ago lol
Hey quick question I am going to send my CCC unit to a third party for repair on 2006 bmw 330i so I will take it out and ship it. But it will take about two weeks before I get it back. Will I still be able to drive the car without the unit? I need to for work. Also how much would it cost to just buy a unit and replace the CCC.
Yes you will, you basically wont have warning chimes or a radio. No biggie.
BMW charges 1,400 for a new ccc her in El Paso Texas . Stupid pricey they need a recall
I agree, they need a recall I’m in central California.cost is 650.00 here
was the coding difficult? i need to do mine but i don’t have any reputable shops near me so i’ll have to do it myself
No not difficult at all. We just read the vehicle order using NCS expert then re-wrote the same vehicle order to all the modules, that re-configured the CCC unit and it was just a matter of powering down the CCC then turning back on and everything worked perfectly.
@@ZeroTo60Tube can u do a video on how to do it..I installed everything no audio
I swapped mine with a different ccc unit off ebay and everything works fine just most important thing the aux isnt working
I have the same problem on F30 2014
The radio is not working and i driver . Did you replace the radio?
I have bmw 525xi I have the same problem. where can I get cc unit and around what price. Also how can I tell which model I need for my specific car. Sorry for so many questions /: but you video is very helpful thank you
The CCC units can range from $50 second hand to $800. It depends who is selling it and what version it is. To work out what one you need, the easiest way is probably by starting with the screen. Is yours a wide screen like this one in the video or a more square screen?
Did you have to do any kind of programming with the "new" ccc unit, or you just take it out from another car and put it in your car?
No, well im not sure actually. CCC is not vin locked, so if the vehicle spec if the same it will just work. However if the donor vehicle had different options coding may be required.
Hello! I’ll currently will have to replace the ccc unit in my bmw 530xi (2007 e60) does every ccc have to be decoded?
If you get one from exactly the same spec car yours is, it will work with out coding
hey so i bought a used e90 and im pretty sure i bought a used unit for the back and installed it and had a mechanic go over the car witha reader and told me the head unit was dead and was likely the problem my screen doesnt turn on at all all i get is door chimes when its plugged in. any ideas ?
Likely the unit
I'm diagnosing a 2007 BMW 525XI 3.0L, L6, USA/Canada with the same issue, how do I prove this without swaptronics? I can see on my autel that the signal intermittently gets "interrupted" but with the unit electrical connections exposed, where should I be focused as far as the drop out? Is it to the monitor or elsewhere?
If you screen boots for a second then shuts down like this in the vid, it will be the CCC module. The only way to test is to swap it with another one, or send yours off for repair. I am yet to see a screen die, its always the CCC.
Would changing out the head unit fix this issue or would you still have to change out the CCC unit as well?
Well the ccc is the head unit
What if it doesn't chime at all.
But drives perfectly fine.
Hi mate I’ve got a 2011 BMW f10 520d the IDRIVE screen does not come on at all also the radio and volume doesn’t work either any ideas on what it can be?
Did you find out what it was?
My CCC unit boots, but the screen has trouble displaying. All idrive features work as they should, but the screen is freaking out sometimes. Is it the screen itself? I can still navigate the idrive system, the main issue is the backlight of the screen, and occasionally it has trouble displaying as well
So I have a 2013 535i that the idrive controller does not work in. The screen seems to be fine, but there is no power or ground to the controller. could this be a similar problem?
My E92 B3 Alpina's radio stations get lost sometimes, any idea ?
This has been really useful, I just need help finding the right ccc and idrive, if I get an aftermarket one will I have to have a certain/different or same ccc? By same obviously a new ccc just the same one I have in my 05 525i rn.
The aftermarket units only replace the screen, so unfortunately you would still need to replace your CCC.
my ccc idrive is completely fried and would probably need a replacement. is there anyway i can just upgrade to a carplay unit without getting another ccc or do i need another ccc idrive unit?
Great video. That trim level makes my teeth itch though.
So you dont need to code anything if you replace? Or should the replacement be coded?
That's what I'm here to figure out also lol
How much to replace? I have a 6 series 3ltr on a 2005 plate with same intermittent problem?
One question do u guys have a shop in Denver? I have the same problem I took it over to the bmw dealer and they charge a lot just to tell me what it’s wrong with it.
Hey man, MY IDRIVE WORKS (E60) SOMETIMES THEN THE KNOB DOES NOTHING. Also no sound AT ALL. In the glove compartment, the plug has the red light, so then its not the radio ccc right?
Hi I have a 320i bmw 2014 , my screen went black I can still use the radio and my phone connects but screen is black, I spoke with the previous owner and told my he put an after maker backup camara. Do you think that could be the problem?
I also bought a new screen and installed it my self my no luck 🤔
I was also driving when it happened
It could be something as simple as the display cable is not seated in the back of the ccc unit properly. Generally the CCC wont power on when its broken so if you have audio it owuld be worth investigating all the connections on the back of the CCC unit. Many years ago you used to have to run an interception box for the backup camera. So maybe the box has died. Let us know how it goes.
Hi - I'm having the same issue. I was wondering what happened with your situation...thanks in advance!
Iv installed my new idrive to my bmw 645ci everything working fine bit there's now no charm noise or audio does this need coding
Question: Do you happen to know if you need the CCC unit to work in order to replace it with the Android 10 units? I have the same unit in my E90 as this coupe in the video, but mine doesn't even turn on at all. In fact, the HU would stay on even after powering the car off, which made me have to remove the fuse. If I buy an Android unit I would like it to work with the knob (which is just spinning as of now) and the CD reader (but that might not happen unless I replace the CCC)??? I'm worried that if I buy the Android unit, plug it in, it still won't work because of the CCC unit being completely dead. Thanks in advance.
Yes, unfortunately if your vehicle has a CCC unit, you need that unit working in order for the android to work. The androids just plug in to the aux in on the CCC and really just work as a dummy display over the top of the CCC. If you have any other questions just let us know.
@@ZeroTo60Tube Thanks so much for the quick response and for the help. Cheers from the U.S.
@@snoopyfix2 hi bro, I have the exact same issue, did u ever find a fix for this? please I need some guidance
@@ZeroTo60Tube hi guys im having the same issue as him. when car is started, radio, ac everything works, expect I drive. screen won't light up or display anything however, with a black screen my buttons still work and I can't "control" the unit. Im really worried, do you guys have any ideas?
I would like to know how to program the ccc unit with the new stereo head, is it just pressing the buttons ?, or with any special code? Tnks
You need a coding program/tool like ista.
Hi guys I wanted to ask you a question.
Practically I'm doing an update from a CCC bisness to a CCC professional on a BMW E90 but when I mount everything I hear the CD player that works but I have no image on the screen nor does it seem to sound practically dead.
Can anyone tell me an answer to the possible problem.
Have you replaced both the screen and the CCC unit? You need to code the unit to get it displaying properly as well.
Zero To 60 what do you need to recode the screen and ccc? I’m not a mechanic just don’t have a lot of money atm
I am gonna replace my screen. Am I going to need to reprogram it. 525XI 2006.I tried to put a 2008 535XI on but the screen was just showing squiggly lines. My radio and audio is there but I just can't access my Idrive bcoz my prev aftermarket is faulty and I'm just trying to get something to let me see the IDRIVE.
Where can I find one for the low
I have an 04 530i and my only issue so far is the I drive constantly restarting and lagging or not outputting stereo sound. Would this be it or is that more of the micro power module at fault?
Same issue here!
How did you guys reprogram the ccc unit ??
Using NCS expert. Read vehicle order from CAS, then write vehicle order to CCC.
Hallo .
Hast du ccc modul getauscht oder repariert?
Danke
Hi there, can you please let me know who did your coding in AUS?
I have a 06 bmw 325i ... and I found one 328i I drive will it fit to my car?
Hey, love the videos. So I bought a bmw 2014 328d a week ago, my Idrive is stuck on the bmw logo I can’t use anything, not even my sound system. Any suggestions on what may be wrong. And if I can fix it by my self or would I have to get a mechanic to fix it?
And forgot to mention the previous owner used one of thoses big car speakers as there sound system idk if that plays a part as to why my idrive doesnt work
Have you tried the solution, I have the same problem?
I have the same issue. Did you all resolve it ?
Nice vid. Is the process for swapping a CIC on a 2011 F10 the same?
Hi, did you did swap? Everything works?
I have just ordered a new CCC for my 2006 330i it is same model modul 1 PL2 so will it be plug and play once I swap it out for my non working one? Or will I have to get it coded at a shop
As long as the car is came from has the same stereo config as your car, it will work. If not coding will be needed. Basically just plug it in and see how it works. With a bit of luck you should be ok.
Zero To 60 Alright I’ll have to see when it arrives thanks so much!
Hey where did you get your carbon fiber parts?
This wasn’t my car. But they were all from eBay from memory.
I have 2007 bmw x5 4.8 i
Secreen black out what should i do
Need to identify if its the screen or the CCC unit.
What’s the company in the states you said repairs them? Need one fixed or replaced for my 04 530i
When i googled it last year there were a few that came up. Sorry i can't remeber anything specific, but search for CCC repair and send some enquiries out.
I’ve got a 2005 E60 525i. The I drive tries to come on the screen and falters. The knob seems to be very free moving ( don’t know if that’s how they are) . Any ideas ?
Yeah that is normal for the knob on a e60, they only go notching when there is a relevant menu on the screen
Can I swap from a ccc to a cci ?? Or up . E60 525i 2008
hey man great video! im still having issues with mine, the screen isnt turning on at all do you happen to know what may be causing this?
Do you get any sound or voice command from steering wheel? If not likely the CCC unit just needs to be replaced. If you get sound, it can be the screen, the cable or the CCC
Hi, graet video. I have done the swap on my wifes e91-06 with a great spec including Nav-pro except the audio (wonder why). After the swap all worked except the audio. The donator car was a -08 M3 with individual audio an updated CCC with the buttons. Wifes car has only standard-audio. Though I did not succeed to access the new ccc with NCS E I decided to let a workshop do the job. The vehicle order om the M3 diff pretty much from wifes car meaning the CCC included several modules not present in our car. The workshop succeeded to get the vehicle order fixed so now the CCC is back to stock, but the audio is still not working. I explained the issue as far as I could to the serviceman. He told that they only reprogrammed and updated the whole car to latest fw. The audio issue did he not have a clue about except suggest to buy a new ccc from BMW, huh! I suppose my issue is that simple that the power amp onboard the CCC is set "nicht active"? Though I still got the issue to not get the CAPPL ECU working with the NCS E, get fault codes and the reading is aborted. How did you solve the similar problem you had with the car in the video?
Hey brotha how can I re writte/ code the new ccc unit ?
Where can I purchase a used rhd bmw like this I already have a 07 bmw 525i Lhd but I needed a car and couldn't find a rhd, comment for info near Los angeles
How do you code the radio to your vehicle?
Its a relatively easy thing, once you have the software setup. But i would recommend putting aside 2-4 hours to learn how to set the software up and do the coding. We coded it using NCS expert and NCS dummy.
Hi bro... where is the polarizer located on my bmw E90 2011(CiC)? front Idrive screen or behind? right now I can see@ read all noticed or warning but it becomes blur soon...so I need to replace polarizer before it becomes completely blank😅
Yesterday, my idrive become red screen and blank after 3 times when I put my key fob into slot so i wait about 30 minutes then my idrive become normal so what it cause it?
Hi gas how are you? I have a BMW 520D E60 2007. Dashboard isn't working, the radio makes banging annoying noise like a beet, the sensor and left hand side lights are not working. What could be the problem? Thankfully!
That could be a tough one. It almost sounds like something is shorting out. Do you have the unit with the amp in the boot? If you do i would start disconnecting modules and see when the noise stops, then you might be able to start tracing the issue back.
Thank you very much! I will try that tomorrow. In the boot there is PDS-Steuergeraet. I don't know what that does. This problem it start, when I start the car the eye brow start flashing then I unplugged the aairbag in the drivers door and it stayed on. I don't know fix that's start? Thankfully
Can you help us with the coding process I just installed one in mine and there's no audio. Please and thanks!
I can't help directly. But google "ncs expert" "how to read vehicle order from cas" "how to write vehicle order to CCC"
I need help I purchased a new ccc and it has logic 7 on system,but my car hasn’t how can I unprogram that because my car hasn’t that function can you tell me how to do that please
Hey man, i cant give you a step by step guide. But look in to NCS expert and default coding the CCC unit to match the cars vo.
aha thats what i heard, it have to be coded to yout sound system!!! excellent video, very helpfull, thanks from Spain!!!
Where did u get the second hand ccc unit
It was one we found on facebook marketplace.
quick question i would love if someone answered. When getting a replacement CCC system, does it need to have all matching numbers on the label like on mine says it is an 01-08 HW 12.6 BA901071038870. so does the replacment have to be the exact same or can it be a different one? Love the videos
No any ccc will work, but it may require coding. If you can get one from the same spec car, so same screen same amplifier and speaker setup it will plug and play for most features.
Thanks I’ll try that
Hi brother,i have 2006 e64 the screen comes on perfectly,just that audio play and stop play and stop imagine driving convertible without music geeeesh what might be the problem ? thank you,,,,,,,from South Africa
Is there a way to bypass the mpm to see if the ccc unit works or not because I have 0 power to mine
