Great video I have a 05 525i I recently bought that did not have the amp or satellite modules when I bought them the sos light recently came on and I bought the female Adapter but it didn’t work could you help me?

[@LondonCityDrive]

Hi would u pls share with me how you got that solved I’m facing same issue on my 320D 2006 right now. I got no amp and no satellite in the trunk.. no sound from the radio.

[@edermiranda1057]

Topppp

[@steveromeocars]

Very nice video mate. I have no sound either in my e60 from 2005. Did you have any fault codes in you ecu? The pre owner put in an Android system.. If I want to go in my original menu, there only comes the BMW boot logo. Even my Idrive knob isn´t working properly. Will already change it out to see if it works. I also have CCC fault in my ecu. Ecerything else is working fine on the android. Any suggestions what else it could be?

[@Marty09933]

Hi Steve Romeo the only thing that showed up was the sos fault on I drive . This is usually for the satellite radio but maybe check on the TCU or amplifier. That’s the only thing I can tell you sorry. Thanks for watching I appreciate you

[@jamiedownie6746]

So where does the male end of your fiber optic loop you bought off of Amazon plug in?

[@Juan-hy5cl]

Has this happened to anyone? 2010 BMW 528i. Radio works and ALL fuses are good. But radio buttons and interior door handles and window button lights do not light up (illuminate) when lights are on. Dash instrument cluster works and so do the a/c control buttons. Any ideas? Thanks.
