    CD43

    I have ‘Phone’ displayed after switching back to original CD player . Also have a bunch of wires behind that don’t connect to anything , including a lose earth with a clip on the end…. Very puzzling as there’s no other connection required at rear. Searching for pics or videos is endless!

    Radio Power weird - short?

    Hello! Years ago I replaced the stock radio with a pioneer radio, and it recently died. So I bought a new fancy CarPlay enabled radio and figured it would be a quick swap. I was wrong. It appears that maybe the radio didn't die, and maybe it's some power issue somewhere. After installing...

    I have a bmw z3 from 1999 and want to put the original radio back in because the Sony one I have now looks like it’s from a spaceship - I wanted an original look and I saw that the blaupunkt radios don’t sit flush with the rest of the plastic - I would like to install Bluetooth into the original...

    3 chirps when using key fob

    Hey all, I have a 1998 BMW Z3 2.8 with a recently replaced oem radio head unit. When replacing the head unit I was sure to re-install the endcap piece that screws in (apparently this has something to do with the factory alarm system). I checked the door, hood, and trunk sensors, and they seem...

    Number 9 Fuse blows each time I put in a new fuse

    Hey all! I have a 1998 Z3 2.8, and I was replacing the radio with a factory OEM replacement, and was getting no power.

    Electrical Problems

    Radio installation has provided harder than I anticipated. I used a multi meter to determine constant, earth and ignition wires. I used a 9V battery to check for the correct speaker wires. Instead of one the speakers popping I heard a popping sound from behind the instrument cluster! Now I have...

    Hi Guys

    I recently bought a Z3 in "HELLROT". She's a 1997 2.8 model with 109,000 km on the clock. There are the usual niggly things that I would like to correct. The radio does not work - apparently the display is "shot", I do have a code, but cannot check if it works. Trying to have it fixed so that...
