Will the 2013 3 series media remote work on the 5 series 10 pin board. Can the operation be completed similar to how you did in this video? Just connect the 10 pin board to the four pins of the 3 series media controller? If so what would be my configuration to line up the equivalent pins?
Thanks for the video. Will the sensors and auto hold still work if you just connect the 4 wires? I don't mind if the senor on/off button itself doesn't work.
My f10 idrive keeps displaying German language and doesn't go into menus for different functions. I watched your video and liked it. Is it something you can help? Michel
Hi. I'm confused about part numbers? Or I can fitted any 4 pin controller who have Navi button? For yours 4 pin controller is 9253944. And there is many more 4 pin controllers with Navi buttons 9267955? Thanks 👍
@@reviewcity3176 first of all, your intuition is a very good job for us, so thanks I’m Italian and not all your words in the video are clear for me So if I well understand you put two solutions In the first you keep the ten pins plug in the old board and you duplicate and connect the firsts four wires to the new knob In the second , you don’t use the old board and you connect the ten pins plug directly to the new four pins knob but in this way you lose the function of parking sensor and Auto H Am I right ?
@@guidoconforti9422 thanks. But not quite. If you follow the instructions and keep the old board connected you will have full functionality. If you choose not to leave the old board connected and just use the newer 4 pin, you can redirect the wires to the 4 pin but you will lose the parking sensors button (the sensors will work, but you cannot turn them on/off on command)
@@reviewcity3176 hi thanks for you replay. This is very interesting because I was trying the way to have always on the parking sensors. And you know what happens to Auto H ?
@@guidoconforti9422 I was mistaken about auto h in the video. I must have pressed it whilst something was disconnected. It is unaffected if you direct the 4 pin. It's just the parking sensors button
Hey Luis, sorry man, I've sold the car a while back and don't really remember the full wiring setup any more. If you post your video and tag me and I'll try to help. It was pretty easy, even with trial and error I don't think it will take yiu more then an hour.
@@reviewcity3176 what do you mean? In what order do the colors go ? Do I have to code my car? Do I have to add my old controller to the wiring too ? Im also the wondering If this works for US cars
@@Maf10sorio no coding required. This method you keep the old controller board connected too otherwise the parking sensor button doesn't work. You can just cho pthe wires and connect to the 4 pin but you will lose control over parking sensors.
I've got it done 3 times now on different cars and it's working perfect. Still have it setup on my own car. Recheck the wires please. Maybe they are on the wrong way round?
Is this for the f10 I’ve been trying to find the part number for my 535i xdrive 2011 so I could at least have a back up plan to buy one just in case I can’t fix the module.
Can you tell me in what order and colours the 4 pins come. Which of the 6 have to be picked up?
Good to know that it can be done but not clear on the wire mapping.
Apologies for that. I've stopped the videos now, never really got good at it. 😂

Hi, yes, sensors and auto hold all work fine.
How does 1 remove the glue without damaging the assembly because you skipped that part
Hey, apply heat towards the glue. Heat gun preferable. But a 2kw heater, or hairdryer will do just be slower and more awkward. Best of luck. Thanks.
@@reviewcity3176 Thanks I’ve got a heat gun let me give it a try
Hey bro, a bit confused with some of the steps, is there a way to contact you and show you my setup that you can help with?
Didn't work for me either..
My f10 idrive keeps displaying German language and doesn't go into menus for different functions.
I watched your video and liked it.
Is it something you can help?
Michel
Hey Michael, sorry, haven't monitored this youtube account in a long time. Hope you got on OK.
hi, my idrive has long plug and its not available to buy can i change cables for little plug ? i think its the same cable
Exactly, you can use the instructions on this video

Great question, not sure of the answer. Please share your results if you tried other models. Thanks.
Just tried with the 9286699, doesn’t work at all or I bought faulty one from eBay 😅, I’m getting one from video now, we’ll see
@@darekh6746did it work ?
@@marianmafiotu2005 yes, i bought the same as on the video
Hi. Only the button of the parking sensor will not work or the sensors too ?
Just the sensor button. But if you complete my steps I went through in the video everything functions perfectly.
@@reviewcity3176 first of all, your intuition is a very good job for us, so thanks

So if I well understand you put two solutions

Hi , not working for me , maybe i connect the wires wrong?
Hey, yes, double check - I've had lots of messages saying it's all working fine. Best of luck.
@@reviewcity3176 i try both ways still not working
Fell left to right how do the color go if I wanna connect the pins directly to the 4 pin
Try it the opposite way your doing. It 💯 works.
@@reviewcity3176 what do you mean? In what order do the colors go ? Do I have to code my car? Do I have to add my old controller to the wiring too ? Im also the wondering If this works for US cars

@@reviewcity3176 why isn’t it working bro 🥺
@@Maf10sorio put your email on here bro, I'll message you and you could send me pics of your setup.
