I have the same problem. It only moves half way and can not manually open or close. So it was just a bad connection?

I can't hear a word you're saying. You need to dump the music bed and then speak closer to your own microphone. It would also be helpful if you had a camera angle showing where that rear inner bolt was located because I can't find mine.

why aren't your video views and subscribers increasing? The reason is 1. Your video is not being SEO properly. 2. Your video title is not SEO-friendly, so is not reaching the right people. 3. Not using video and channel hashtags properly. 4. No video description use properly. 5. Not sharing the video on social media so your videos are limited to your channel. Your video is awesome. Such videos are in great demand. If you do these things correctly, hopefully, you will get a lot of visitors. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have.

@CarGuy1 9 ай бұрын
I don't believe it was just the ribbon. It's obvious that someone opened this thing up before for some reason and they likely damaged the ribbon during disassembly. I don't see how it would fail on it's own. The secondary fail was the gear on the electric motor. It was nowhere to be found.

@@CarGuy1 no issues with the screen movement and just installed a new battery last weekend, and put the top down with no issue.

Man! Thanks for this video. For me it came a little too late because I bought my 08’ Z4M last year with the same problem. Checked in the forums and everyone said nothing but original won’t. And they are super expensive on eBay. So I ended up putting a CarPlay in the unit, but sacrificing the open/close mechanism

That's one of the main reasons I wanted to keep the original. I don't like that screen being open all the time.

Eventually, I might just swap out the dash for the one without NAV and install a double DIN unit.
