These vids are racking up now team 👌
Very informative video thanks so much guys!!
I bought one of the same exact stereo installed , but the backup camera is not working
Thanks muy friend. Your vídeo is super useful. I had doub about wired connections and with your vídeo the task seems easy. BEST vídeo ever. I Will try tomorrow in my e53
For those who have no sound it's because your stereo has a dsp amp in the back... that's a good place to start.
And ther eis NO info on how the hell to make this work... so I gave up, put my stock radio back, and now even my dman stock radio doesn't work... bmw is always overdesigned pos
@@jonc2914 there are two fuses in boot to make your stock stereo work again.
I have exactly the same issue, how can I get this fixed?
That’s freakin dope
I plug everything and the music is playing but i dont have sound whyyyyyyyy
Hi! I bought this same exact radio for my 2006 X5 E53. After installing on my own, i noticed that bluetooth and sound wasn't working (other than the radio). I took it to get professionally diagnosed and they fixed it. the problem is the wire from the amp to bluetooth doesn't stay on since a new head unit is being used. if you cut that wire and cap it, and run the wire from the amp straight to the ignition, it fixes the problem. doesn't drain battery as it only used once car is started. reach out if you have any questions.

@@heymr.carterrrHi!

I have the same problem but sound just doesn’t work at all, whether it’s Bluetooth or radio. Any idea of what I could do?
what colour is the amp wire?
I just tried installing one. When I plugged in the smaller plug block, the wires started smoking and melted three wires. I guess that is garbage now? ugh!!
Great video! BTW, what was the model/brand of the stereo installed? Was DSP on the original stereo? Thanks!
This one installed was a 16gb Driveitech head unit fit for x5 e53

i have a bmw x5 2003 My sound system is not working but when i turn on the radio it plays static out of the speakers do you think it is just the tuner head unit on the car?
Check in the driver's rear wheel-well area to see if any water has leaked in on the amp if you have a sun/moon roof. I have a 2005 x5 & that's what happened to me. The amp is located in the driver's side panel in the trunk area. Water leaked in from the sunroof drain plug & shorted out the radio via the amp. If this happened to you, you can find a video on UA-cam to find/fix the leak first. Good luck
Hi, my BMW is the 2005 X5 E53 with the tuner in the back boot. I have to buy the Aerpro BMW Quadlock Extention (APFH022) to connect the aftermarket head unit to the tuner in the back (underneath the spare tyre). However, while everything is working, there is no sound from the DSP. Not sure if you have any suggestion? Thanks
Radio is on no sound. All wires are correct?! Help!!!
You ever find out the problem
@@callmesfreezy9633 yeah I needed to connect the (acc) extra red to power as well

No sound.... fail
question i want to buy this exact unit. if i have DSP will it still power my speakers with the factory amp in the rear??
No, and no one offers any damn answers on dsp
Thank you, this is easily the most straightforward guide I’ve found.
