Corsa E 2014 - 2017 touch screen radio removal quick guide

[@ajk1312]

Thanks, installing a reversing camera on my 15 plate corsa and this was very helpful!

[@marcyvee]

Thanks! That's very useful! So, isn't there any video input? No way to plug something without buying expensive accessories?

[@PJsprojects]

Having checked the rear of the unit I can't see any way to directly plug a video source in but as with most things it may still be possible with a bit of circuit board knowledge.

[@adammockett6994]

Fifth torx screw roughly beneath hazard warning switch! To be fair, the screen unit I was removing appears different from the one in the video: chrome streak above the control buttons, and different connectors at the back (principally, two main connectors instead of one). So, there's certainly not a fault with this video. Anyway, to save anyone else from fruitlessly pulling on the sides of the screen for as long as I did: once the screen unit is otherwise ready to be removed, the piece with the central air vents and the hazard warning switch can be pulled forward very easily, revealing the extra screw holding the screen unit in place. (It's also necessary to pop out the cable clip, holding the cable for the hazard warning switch, from the top of the screen unit.)

Hi, I was wondering how do I add a new stereo as I want to add a sub but the standard stereo on the 2015 corsa e doesn’t support it ?, I have seen things like a stereo mounting kit but can’t find a stereo that fits ?

[@happymark1805]

Thanks mate, great tutorial

[@graz-e.m.s]

Nice vid, many thanks.

[@SIP100Ka]

Thank you mate, i'll soon buy a screen to replace the basic radio post, 200 quid in a screen with android but aye at least it'll look good in the end ^^

[@angusmckay1976]

Is there anyway to attach and amp to the original head unit via rca so it can power a sub in the boot?

[@PJsprojects]

Yes you need the item in this video - kzbin.info/www/bejne/iaaWkotvrauMmtk

[@visionxwallzz]

Where would I find what wires are what in the back? Trying to fit a sub?

[@feligato6856]

sr. I've one question. My radio it's break, how can I know which models can I use?

[@louisehalliday4057]

Hi there... That video was fab, thanks... But, are you able to show me how to take apart the heater switch console too? . The fan switch isn't working on any other setting apart from 4...i suspect all I need to do is replace the switch?? Thanks, Louise

[@augustindeper]

Hi, ive a question about your video. Some setting are in the navigation screen. If I change it with another autoradio, how can I access to them ? Thank u

[@Thboyz6214]

That little spring clip that you heard drop, yeah I lost one! No idea where it went! Do you or anyone else on here know if and where I can get a replacement?

[@zahidmanjra920]

Did you manage to get a replacement lost both of mines

[@SylvainBOSSON-og8fi]

Thank you very much, great vodeo , if we would change this unit radio and replace with an other radio cd getting rca output to have a subwoofer and amp

Hi Mate, I’m looking for screen for my 65 plate (2016) Corsa same one in your viedo, any help?

[@TQTheQuestion]

Where do you bet that little blue tool from

[@stehayes8807]

What screens can I put in my vauxhall corsa 2015E as my touch screen no longer works and I don't wana purchase the wrong 1

[@PJsprojects]

Just buy any double din one, your retailer will be able to advise on current models

[@DM-ct5cv]

Hi, I have a 2015 corsa limited edition and want to upgrade the radio to a 2018 corsa radio is there an adaptor that I could get to change from the old wiring to the new as it’s different and where could I buy it I also need the new trim piece around the radio.

[@PJsprojects]

Yes the parts are available from Connects2.com or the likes of Halfords,Amazon,EBay. Just give them your reg number so they can look up the exact spec.

[@dylanmiller5860]

Do you know if this head unit would be a direct swap into a corsa d???

[@PJsprojects]

Not a direct swap sadly.

[@ThathdGamer]

@@PJsprojects What would have to be done for it to work in a Corsa D?

[@Alanw74]

Are these units security coded? Want to buy a 2nd hand unit

[@zZzAvicii]

How would I connect the USB port from the corsa to my aftermarket radio? Can I use a USB-A to USB-A cable? It seems to be a mini usb (i can not see it clearly) or do I have to use a mini usb - to usb-a cable?. Would appreciate a response :-)

[@louisehalliday4057]

Hi there, that video was fab, thanks... But are you able to show me how to take apart the heater switch console too?? The fan switch only works on the last, fastest setting.... I suspect that I only need to replace the switch.... Thanks, from Louise

[@PJsprojects]

Hi,It might not be the switch,on all the ones I have worked on it's been the fan Resistor which is located up under the glove box and slides out from inside a large white plastic housing. It is very rare for the switch to wear out and sadly I have not done a video showing this repair yet but doing a quick KZbin search did find this video which pretty much shows what I'm saying. kzbin.info/www/bejne/nGXXgoyBjJeZaq8

[@vunievidence1076]

Hi , I have a 2015 with the normal screen like the one in the video. What happened to it is it just went off until today then I got another, the problem with the one I got now is that it does go ON but it says it’s locked then after few minutes it goes off then I’ll be forced to adjust that or touching the ......adapter then it’s going to switch On. Then it will go off the moment I wanna place it back it will go off.

[@lesliejames5722]

You need to get it coded to your vin number which is located at the bottom right of the windscreen, then it won't say locked.

[@twinkle509]

Evening great video on the extraction of the unit, was wondering if you can connect a sub to it ie audio out ?

[@PJsprojects]

Yes but you will need to run the remote cable from the amp to a ignition switched live in the fuse box. On Corsa models look for two yellow 20amp fuses next to each other,these are switched live and with the aid of the item below provide a very simple remote switched power if a new aftermarket radio is being fitted that does not have a remote power out (blue wire). www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Pack-Of-2-Add-A-Circuit-Mini-Blade-Spade-Fuse-Holders-15-Amp-Rating-Easy-Spur/111149841394?hash=item19e10bfbf2:g:PV4AAOxyvuVSF3QF

[@danielhyland4638]

Hi there, did you disconnect the battery before you took the screen out?

[@cdenson-smith9432]

Good video. Is it possible to replace the infotainment system in a 2015 corsa e with the 4.0 from a 2017 corsa e as I would like the apple car play feature

[@PJsprojects]

Hi. The Apple car play feature is built into the radio so although I have not tried what you mention in theory it should work fine. The only drawback could be the price of a new system from the dealer.

[@garethrichards9847]

christopher denson-smith I've got one I bought for my Adam but was too big, it's even got the old plugs from the corsa it came out of in the back with a bit of cable left. It's also got the gloss black surround for the corsa? let me know if you want it?

[@jordanwhite1514]

Gareth Richards, does that head unit have the apple car play on it? I would be interested if it did, thanks!

[@garethrichards9847]

Jordan White I'm not sure mate, as far as I'm aware the O/S is in the unit but don't quote me on that. Let me know if you want it?

[@jordanwhite1514]

Gareth, how much did you want for it?

[@serdarkilic533]

Hi, first al thank you. Great and clear instruction video. Is it posible to swap the intellilink r3.0 for a 4.0 version ? Will the kabels fit ?

[@PJsprojects]

While it is a physical like for like swap you will may find that certain display and steering control options do not work without reprogramming.

[@raihanjabed4206]

Hi pal, would you happen to know how to remove the heater dials? As mine does not light up anymore

[@TheBlazej0220]

hi. Did you find anything helpfull? mine doesnt light up well. also tough to replace for newer version and not sure if that gonna work.

[@Livingthedream76-c9b]

Great Video!! I have a 2015 with the normal screen like the one in this video but wondered if you would know if the later 2016 with CarPlay would fit and work in my 2015 ? Thank you

[@PJsprojects]

Carplay is built in to the new radio so as long as the connector matches it should in theory work,although this is not a swap I have ever had to do.

[@ekerr5953]

@@PJsprojects This video is amazing! So useful. Where can I buy a new screen/radio what supports Apple CarPlay? I'm interested in updating my current screen, which does not support Apple CarPlay. I'm not sure what to even search for.

Hello I’ve got the same problem did you get your issue fixed? If so what was wrong?

[@musimir1883]

Hey PJ! I want to fit AUX to this HU, as most of them have it but I dont because I retrofitted it, I had the standard radio that had AUX in it. Most people have aux next to the USB port, I dont. Do you know what wires from the jack 3.5 aux go where in the back of the R3?

[@musimir1883]

To be exact, I need the pinouts of the HU...what wire goes where

[@Martin-ce2ko]

Can I retro fit a sat nav unit into my 2016 corsa energy, and will I need anything other than a new screen unit?

Depends on which sat nav screen you use but most will require a GPS antenna.

Hi. The Sony WX-900BT Double Din is a good price & does support most modern file formats used on Android. Also you won't have any bother finding a steering control adapter,price around £120.

Yes the outer trim is pretty easy to swap over,just take care with the clips as they are easy to break and watch you don't get any wires trapped behind the trim.

Does anyone know if i was to replace the screen in my 65 plate vxr with like for like replacement due to a scuffed screen would i have to find a vxr one due to the opening screen saying 'vxr' or would any screen from a 2015 corsa work?

[@PJsprojects]

If you are talking about just the lcd panel then any of the same spec and size will be fine. The VXR logo is generated by the source unit.

[@lewis5892]

Look into it first because I am pretty sure all head units are coded to your car due to theft as there so easy to take out

[@gameova5962]

It should be like changing your phone screen.

[@handsoffmycactus2958]

Why would you remove this? They are brilliant systems? And why are you throwing stuff on the dashboard in a brand new car? It'll scuff it all!

[@PJsprojects]

I imagine your watching this guide because like many others your looking at replacing it for an aftermarket unit or fitting a handsfree kit,the customer that owned this car was simply upgrading. As for scuffing the dash I assure you no damage came from the lightweight bits of plastic.

[@handsoffmycactus2958]

PJs projects I was just interested in what it looked like behind the dashboard. I get that people may want to upgrade, but there's not really any upgrading to do unless you do software updates or some better speakers. The touch screen infotainment is awesome. Much better than in some more upmarket cars. And any tiny thing like a ring, jacket, clips etc can scratch. I'd have put a blanket down

[@titocostilla]

I do not agree the system is bad and you can not use a gps easily much better the new intellilink r4.0 with android auto and carplay

[@matthewprescott-byrne1403]

Would you know if a car play dongle would work with this type of radio.?
