A friend brought me one by to clean up for him. And I nearly broke the ribbon cable as you did but luckily saw where to disconnect it. Having worked on a BMW -made Mini Cooper for a year, I gotta say.........BMW stuff is a major PITA to work on. It just is. All of it. Very cleverly engineered, just don't ever let up maintenance, and good luck if you are a weekend mechanic-type.

Can you remove the rubber on the rotating part?
@MerakiGrace Жыл бұрын
mine is acting weird! when I turn it left, everything's fine, but when i turn the circle in right, then it wont move 90% of the time.. maybe it's about tightness of that center bolt you were mentioning; did you have that kind of problem and do you know what's the solution? thanks for a very helpful video, everything's much clearer now and I didn't know it has so much pieces :o
@Makhnovets Жыл бұрын
Hey. Not really, the turning is a small mall that is under the bolt, I wouldn’t mess with it if it’s working.

I need some help please. Mine works fine and then it randomly stops working or then some functions like clicking down on it and pushing it left and right don’t work. This is on a bmw 320i 2016. Very helpful video btw. Any tips for my situation?

@Makhnovets Жыл бұрын
In this type of i-Drive it means that it most likely dead. If you somehow pull on the knob, or slam it, you can take the wheel apart and see if the riven cable still connected, but I would suggest you to look for used unit, eBay would be the best bet!

@Makhnovets Жыл бұрын
if the ratchet mechanism broken, it would be easier to buy the new one. If the up-down-left-right isn't working then it's possible to fix it, the central pole usually pops out. you can remove round cover as i did, the one I scratched badly very at the start of the video, make sure the tiny screw is there and it's screwed in, it shouldn't be tyte. after all it's easier to buy the new unit, then trying to repair old one...

@Makhnovets Жыл бұрын
describe it. Does it moves up and down while you push and pull? everything that is under the joystick cap is responsible for the press. remove the cap that is on the joystick, the one that I removed with the pick tool. and release tension from the tiny screw in the middle. Make sure not to pull the joystick while the screw is removed. the structure is pretty complex.
