- A friend of ours gave us a call saying his radio wasn't making any sound and the screen in his E92 BMW wouldn't turn on. This is a vlog style video trying to work out exactly what it wrong and then how we fixed it as cheaply as possible.

Hey man great video helped me a lot! I did exactly the same successful swap. Everything works except the navy system. The second hand radio is with navigation. Thanks
Thanks so much best video I could find❤️
Thanks for posting - really useful
I am very grateful to you. My car radio had the same problem and I followed your instructions to the letter and it worked fine
Glad it helped
Thank you, but unfortunately this process is repeated. The error repeats itself every time
What is the solution to this problem
I had this issue and replacing my battery fixed every single screen error. It’s insane how crazy the car will get with a low battery
I'm dealing with that issue right now and it's making a weird humming noise in the dash even with the car off so I believe it's just draining my new battery
@@maxdecker4962 get a voltmeter, they’re inexpensive. It can help you find the issue faster.
I’ve got the same problem max zz
@@maxdecker4962 it’s most likely the fan in the back of the ccc unit, same thing happened to me and I just pulled the fuse to it bevause it’ll drain your battery
@@juiceman1887 This is happening to me now. I replaced battery assuming it was battery bc it was 5 years old. But then noticed after the car isnt going to sleep
Good video very helpful thanks
Excellent video !!!!!
Thanks so much for this video! What’s the name of the company in the US that replaces the power unit of the CCC?
OK just a suggestion now that you have done that remove the air filters from the - under the hood remove the plastic bottom panel you will see a well look for water markings if you C water markings reached down to the bottom for a rubber grommet if there is a rubber grommet pull it up take it out water is getting in there and shorting out the systems if you pull the rubber grommet out then if water gets in there it just drains down-and-out from under the car
He, nice vid. Have you got a video regarding a cic high module?
Thanks mate !!!!!
Hi there, can you please let me know who did your coding in AUS?
hey mate, thank you for the video and your channel!
I am from cologne, germany and I have an issue with my CCC as well. Its a little bit different though, but maybe someone in the community has an idea what to do.
So here is the problem. The navigationsystem in my CCC doesn't start up. And I do mean ONLY the navigationsystem. The iDrive (I think it's called that way) works perfectly, I can navigate through the whole software except the maps navigationsystem. Someone told us that the whole DVD-drive of the CCC is broke, so we exchanged it for another unit, but it's still the same issue (we only exchange the DVD-drive not the whole boardcomputer). So my guess is it's a softwareproblem. So I bought a new (original) BMW Navigation DVD Road Map Europe PROFESSIONAL 2019, but my CCC does not read the disc. It does not say there is a disc in the drive at all (we tried it with both DVD-Drives) so again I think the problem is within the software. Does anybody have any suggestions of how to do a firmware update of the CCC or any other ideas of how to fix the problem. The next BMW partner here wants 1800 € for the update and this is just ridiculous for putting some software on a boardcomputer...
Thank you for any ideas and tips in advance - appreciate it!
Keep up the good work!
Oh if you need the infos: got a BMW 650i E63 (2009)
Hi I love the video did it affect anything else I'm having the same issue but my sunroof won't work I drive is dead electric seaimts heated seats
Hi, i just installed a new android 10 head unit from andream. Everything is working fine except that it seems to be overheating. Gets kind of hot where the cd player is also i can hear the cd player or dvd player still running after i shut the car off. I don't think it was doing this before the installation. So does this mean it's overheating if so what can i do?
Looks great! How much for the used unit?
So not necessary to disconnect battery . Would you disc batt to check fuses for aircon switches and temp settings seat heaters park sensors etc
Thanks for the video, i had a bad ccc unit, found a used one on ebay, the technician whos doing the job says he will need to program the new unit for it to work, is this true or is he just trying to get more money out of me? Thanks for your help
Great video! Just wondering what part of sydney you’re located in? And what is the name of your shop? I’m having a similar issue and would like to have this looked into
Mr Dunu, sorry we missed this comment. Unfortunately we are QLD based. Have you managed to get it sorted yet.
Zero To 60 not yet. I’ve noticed I’m no longer getting power to my ccc fan, so I’m wondering whether it’s worth swapping the power cable out or swapping the entire unit out. From your past experience, once the ccc starts rebooting (intermittently on say half an hour intervals), is it worth swapping the entire unit out? Or do you feel I can save it?
Hi! I'm having the same problem on my e90.
Where can I buy the CCC unit?
How do I know I'm getting the right one?
Great job. I have the same problem and was wondering if you could please recommend a place in Melbourne to get it fixed?
Did u find a place to fix it yet?
Thanks I’ll try that
My CCC unit boots, but the screen has trouble displaying. All idrive features work as they should, but the screen is freaking out sometimes. Is it the screen itself? I can still navigate the idrive system, the main issue is the backlight of the screen, and occasionally it has trouble displaying as well
Hey mate you really helped me installed my new ccc as I was having the same problems with the old one.. the swap was successful however the audio quality is now terrible with distortion. Would you know why that is? I have the base sound system. Thank you again for your video!!
Hey dude. Is it all audio? Or just aux?
@@ZeroTo60Tube only Aux bro
Hi, graet video. I have done the swap on my wifes e91-06 with a great spec including Nav-pro except the audio (wonder why). After the swap all worked except the audio. The donator car was a -08 M3 with individual audio an updated CCC with the buttons. Wifes car has only standard-audio. Though I did not succeed to access the new ccc with NCS E I decided to let a workshop do the job. The vehicle order om the M3 diff pretty much from wifes car meaning the CCC included several modules not present in our car. The workshop succeeded to get the vehicle order fixed so now the CCC is back to stock, but the audio is still not working. I explained the issue as far as I could to the serviceman. He told that they only reprogrammed and updated the whole car to latest fw. The audio issue did he not have a clue about except suggest to buy a new ccc from BMW, huh! I suppose my issue is that simple that the power amp onboard the CCC is set "nicht active"? Though I still got the issue to not get the CAPPL ECU working with the NCS E, get fault codes and the reading is aborted. How did you solve the similar problem you had with the car in the video?
I have a 2006 bmw 325iA with screen display not turning on. I will try this!! Thank you for making this video!
Worked?
@@Limmpan01 I need to get the part I havent had time to get it. Or look for it. Been busy. My car is just been sitting for months :(..
@@AUTOTUB3 did you end up fixing
@@ScrewedUpMusic its been so long i honestly do not remember. I think I might of changed it. I do remember trying used screen displays from other bmw cars
I just bought a 2014 338d, my display is just the bmw logo it sometimes turns into a black screen then turn back to the bmw logo. Any suggestions on how to fix it myself or get some one to fix?
Hi Guys, I bought i545 M BMW from this person who took out the speaker, the Radio face mask, promising to replace them with a more batter system and after that I haven't seen or heard from him ever since that day! Now I am force to buy and reinstall these componence myself plus fix other things like the SOS and perhaps pull the CCC apart to see connection are loose because the CCC light doesn't
I have a 2007 BMW 530I My radio will go off then It will come back on screen and work. But it will come back on and repeat. Like your video
Hi bro... where is the polarizer located on my bmw E90 2011(CiC)? front Idrive screen or behind? right now I can see@ read all noticed or warning but it becomes blur soon...so I need to replace polarizer before it becomes completely blank😅
Is there a way to bypass the mpm to see if the ccc unit works or not because I have 0 power to mine
Thanks 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🙏🙏
Hi Mate, have got an Idrive on a 535d 2005 year, screen is completley blank, won't come up with 'bmw'or anything just an unlit screen with nothing. I'm going to try hard reset and double check the fuses, failing that, could it be the screen cable you refer to or something internal within the ccc module itself? Any help appreciated!
I have the same problem on F30 2014
The radio is not working and i driver . Did you replace the radio?
So, did you find what the main cause was there, other than just replacing the unit? Maybe it will be not easy to find out?
I still have the unit. Hopefully take it apart sometime and see if we I can indetify a faulty part
I have a 06 bmw 325i ... and I found one 328i I drive will it fit to my car?
Do you know if its possible for the iDrive system to function without the CCC unit? I haven’t ever used it and I hate how that is the main problem from me enjoying my car and listening to music. If not could this be fixed replacing the units with a 3rd party android center unit display?
Unfortunately no, the CCC unit is the idrive unit.
Where us the link for the usa shop to have the head unit fixed?
Thank you for the tip. Do you know the name of company in America that refurbishes the ccc unit?
Hey thanks it’s was the ccc unit on my 535 xi but I have a problem no getting no sound does it need coding or can I bypass that
No, you will need to recode. It’s just a matter of re-writing the correct vehicle order to the car. Then power the ccc down/reset it, but holding the volume knob and eject buttons and you should be good to go.
Hey brotha how can I re writte/ code the new ccc unit ?
Someone posted a video that shows that the faceplate for the e90 CCC unit may actually be the culprit. When he swapped the faceplate from a used unit with the unit causing issues it worked. Someone else then figured out that a chip on the faceplate board needs to be resoldered. So basically no replacement necessary. Just soldering.
Nice vid. Is the process for swapping a CIC on a 2011 F10 the same?
Hi, did you did swap? Everything works?
I have bmw 525xi I have the same problem. where can I get cc unit and around what price. Also how can I tell which model I need for my specific car. Sorry for so many questions /: but you video is very helpful thank you
The CCC units can range from $50 second hand to $800. It depends who is selling it and what version it is. To work out what one you need, the easiest way is probably by starting with the screen. Is yours a wide screen like this one in the video or a more square screen?
Can you show us the coding process for the CCC?
Do you have the CZcams link for the coding process
I guess he wont
aha thats what i heard, it have to be coded to yout sound system!!! excellent video, very helpfull, thanks from Spain!!!
One question do u guys have a shop in Denver? I have the same problem I took it over to the bmw dealer and they charge a lot just to tell me what it’s wrong with it.
hey man great video! im still having issues with mine, the screen isnt turning on at all do you happen to know what may be causing this?
Do you get any sound or voice command from steering wheel? If not likely the CCC unit just needs to be replaced. If you get sound, it can be the screen, the cable or the CCC
Where can I purchase a used rhd bmw like this I already have a 07 bmw 525i Lhd but I needed a car and couldn't find a rhd, comment for info near Los angeles
What’s the company in the states you said repairs them? Need one fixed or replaced for my 04 530i
When i googled it last year there were a few that came up. Sorry i can't remeber anything specific, but search for CCC repair and send some enquiries out.
My E92 B3 Alpina's radio stations get lost sometimes, any idea ?
So I have a 2013 535i that the idrive controller does not work in. The screen seems to be fine, but there is no power or ground to the controller. could this be a similar problem?
This has been really useful, I just need help finding the right ccc and idrive, if I get an aftermarket one will I have to have a certain/different or same ccc? By same obviously a new ccc just the same one I have in my 05 525i rn.
The aftermarket units only replace the screen, so unfortunately you would still need to replace your CCC.
Hello, we have a signal problem, the screen doesn’t even respond when we turn the car on. This since we have tried to install a car play. Please help
my ccc idrive is completely fried and would probably need a replacement. is there anyway i can just upgrade to a carplay unit without getting another ccc or do i need another ccc idrive unit?
Hello! Thanks - really informative. I've been having a similar problem on my 2014 BMW 320xi... The audio works but the screen just keeps resetting to the BMW logo every few minutes. Any suggestions? I do live in Alaska, so wondering if it's the cold. When the car is in the garage/warm it still has the same problem.
I have this problem too any fix?
Did you fix it?
You have to get it programmed. It's a bug issue.
@@conflictedshotz8412 it's a corrupt file on the radio system. bmw programming should fix it.

How much to replace? I have a 6 series 3ltr on a 2005 plate with same intermittent problem?
I THINK this is my problem, BMW sign will show up and fade out in my 08 535i, it's worth a TRY... THANKS
I would like to know how to program the ccc unit with the new stereo head, is it just pressing the buttons ?, or with any special code? Tnks
You need a coding program/tool like ista.
You haven't taught or shown anyone how to fix a ccc unit. Only to replace one which is easy
...
The reality is a lot of people think the problem is the screen. The title lists the symptoms and the easiest way to fix those symptoms. Have another read of the title and please let us know what you would change it to. Appreciate the feedback. Have a great week.
I currently have the same problem with my 2004 530i bmw, you mention the logic 7 amp at the end. Is there any way of knowing if it does or doesnt have the amp so I dont have to do extra software work? In the US by the way if that helps. Thanks!
The safest way is to simply check if you have one in the boot.
@@ZeroTo60Tube So I eventually ended up replacing it with no problems...update about 3 months later it broke again....is there any chance doing an apple carplay swap can fix it too? Or should I just try and get another ccc unit and hope for the best?...a lot of money for me to spend and have it break again.
Great video man I have replaced my ccc just today and there was no audio I guess I need to do the coding but I have never did coding before how was the process done? Please thanks u
Where did you get your ccc replaced? States ?
@@maliknexus I bought a ccc unite from a guy in New York but I’m in ct he shipped it to me and I installed it but had it coded at a local shop near me and it’s working perfect now!
5:40 it’s good here to actually put some cloth or towel on the centre console to protect from scratches or damage from that heavy CD unit. 🤔
I'm diagnosing a 2007 BMW 525XI 3.0L, L6, USA/Canada with the same issue, how do I prove this without swaptronics? I can see on my autel that the signal intermittently gets "interrupted" but with the unit electrical connections exposed, where should I be focused as far as the drop out? Is it to the monitor or elsewhere?
If you screen boots for a second then shuts down like this in the vid, it will be the CCC module. The only way to test is to swap it with another one, or send yours off for repair. I am yet to see a screen die, its always the CCC.
I am gonna replace my screen. Am I going to need to reprogram it. 525XI 2006.I tried to put a 2008 535XI on but the screen was just showing squiggly lines. My radio and audio is there but I just can't access my Idrive bcoz my prev aftermarket is faulty and I'm just trying to get something to let me see the IDRIVE.
Please an opinion would be nice, mine is not powering on, althrogh the radio works, it drains the battery and i have a feeling it does not shutdown, but the navi dosen`t power on no matter what, also it dosn`t work blindly like trying to switch the music source, might be the ccc, but my question is, if i plug another one, will it turn on before coding? im a newby so i dont know.
Hi there , i got the radio working fine in my e60 but the ccc screen doesn’t turn on what would be the problem ? Thank you
How did you get radio to work I’m having problem with radio now radio won’t power on neither does the I drive
@@AdvantageTym I am having same issue. I have a 2013 X5. We’re you able to get yours fixed?
Hallo .
Hast du ccc modul getauscht oder repariert?
Danke
Question: Do you happen to know if you need the CCC unit to work in order to replace it with the Android 10 units? I have the same unit in my E90 as this coupe in the video, but mine doesn't even turn on at all. In fact, the HU would stay on even after powering the car off, which made me have to remove the fuse. If I buy an Android unit I would like it to work with the knob (which is just spinning as of now) and the CD reader (but that might not happen unless I replace the CCC)??? I'm worried that if I buy the Android unit, plug it in, it still won't work because of the CCC unit being completely dead. Thanks in advance.
Yes, unfortunately if your vehicle has a CCC unit, you need that unit working in order for the android to work. The androids just plug in to the aux in on the CCC and really just work as a dummy display over the top of the CCC. If you have any other questions just let us know.
@@ZeroTo60Tube Thanks so much for the quick response and for the help. Cheers from the U.S.
@@snoopyfix2 hi bro, I have the exact same issue, did u ever find a fix for this? please I need some guidance
@@ZeroTo60Tube hi guys im having the same issue as him. when car is started, radio, ac everything works, expect I drive. screen won't light up or display anything however, with a black screen my buttons still work and I can't "control" the unit. Im really worried, do you guys have any ideas?
Thanks for showing without removing the key. Funny mine works when the battery unplugged overnight then when I plugged right up only works for few minutes start flicking like on your video.. idk tf wrong with it. Got new battery installed.
motherboard problem like mine.
How do I get a replacement like yours , I have the exact same model 06 330
Try searching ebay and facebook market place for people dismantling them.
Would changing out the head unit fix this issue or would you still have to change out the CCC unit as well?
Well the ccc is the head unit
I have a 535 xi 2008 it comes on some days then goes off should I replace the ccc unit
It is more than likely the CCC, especially if it does what this does at the start of the video. If you can your hands on a second hand one to try, i think that is the cheapest option. If the problem turns out to be something else you can always sell the replacement and get your money back.
Hi sir
I would like to know the micro power module need to program or not. Thank you
So you dont need to code anything if you replace? Or should the replacement be coded?
That's what I'm here to figure out also lol
was the coding difficult? i need to do mine but i don’t have any reputable shops near me so i’ll have to do it myself
No not difficult at all. We just read the vehicle order using NCS expert then re-wrote the same vehicle order to all the modules, that re-configured the CCC unit and it was just a matter of powering down the CCC then turning back on and everything worked perfectly.
@@ZeroTo60Tube can u do a video on how to do it..I installed everything no audio
Hey quick question I am going to send my CCC unit to a third party for repair on 2006 bmw 330i so I will take it out and ship it. But it will take about two weeks before I get it back. Will I still be able to drive the car without the unit? I need to for work. Also how much would it cost to just buy a unit and replace the CCC.
Yes you will, you basically wont have warning chimes or a radio. No biggie.
BMW charges 1,400 for a new ccc her in El Paso Texas . Stupid pricey they need a recall
I agree, they need a recall I’m in central California.cost is 650.00 here
Great video. That trim level makes my teeth itch though.
Hi guys I wanted to ask you a question.
Practically I'm doing an update from a CCC bisness to a CCC professional on a BMW E90 but when I mount everything I hear the CD player that works but I have no image on the screen nor does it seem to sound practically dead.
Can anyone tell me an answer to the possible problem.
Have you replaced both the screen and the CCC unit? You need to code the unit to get it displaying properly as well.
Zero To 60 what do you need to recode the screen and ccc? I’m not a mechanic just don’t have a lot of money atm
Iv installed my new idrive to my bmw 645ci everything working fine bit there's now no charm noise or audio does this need coding
A bit dangerous replacing electronics with power on?
I swapped mine with a different ccc unit off ebay and everything works fine just most important thing the aux isnt working
I have an 04 530i and my only issue so far is the I drive constantly restarting and lagging or not outputting stereo sound. Would this be it or is that more of the micro power module at fault?
Same issue here!
Hello good afternoon, I just replaced CCC on my 2006 530i all the functions work except for the audio, to have it recoded is it something I can do on my own or I have to take it to someone to do it.... thanks in advance
You probably don’t have an auxiliary function you need an activator for 2006 pre lci
Where can I find one for the low
Hey Zero to 60!
FINALLY!!!
Been searching for a video like this for the longest time haha
I have a similar issue. When I power on my ignition, my screen flashes white for a second than off. Maybe 10 minutes flys by and it happens again. Goes on as long as the car is on.
No sound. No functionality in any buttons. Tried the hard reset with the 3 buttons, and still nothing. Tried the hard reset with the battery. Nothing.
Got a quote from a BMW workshop of roughly $3000 for a new CCC headunit haha
Just wondering if you'd know of anything that may be the underlying issue or if this would solve my problem.
Thanks again guys
(2005 BMW 325i e90 MSport)
Its nearly always the main CCC unit itself that causes this. The cheapest way to fix it is with a second hand unit. You just need to get one that has come from a car with same screen as your car. All the other options (like stereo setup) are configurable. But even with out the audio side configured you can plug the replacement unit it and make sure it powers up and check menus etc.
There were companies repairing these, but the repairs dont seem to last like a brand new unit, so for the cost we think a second hand unit is the way to go.
@@ZeroTo60Tube
Yup, I don't doubt you. It must be the CCC unit.
Speaking of second hand units, would going to a pick & part or such, benefit me in anyway? Or are there specific websites I could visit instead ... am from New Zealand :)
I'll definitely make sure to match the units making sure it fits and is suitable for my car.
Thanks
@@Bruce_T I would try a pick a part for sure. Or even eBay for second hand ones. To confirm basically any E90, E92 or E93 unit will work as long as the vehicle its coming from has the screen as your car. If you can match the stereo/amp setup to your car, you shouldn't need to do any coding.
@@ZeroTo60Tube
Cheers fellas, appreciate it 👍
Did you get it fixed? Having the same issues
Hey man, MY IDRIVE WORKS (E60) SOMETIMES THEN THE KNOB DOES NOTHING. Also no sound AT ALL. In the glove compartment, the plug has the red light, so then its not the radio ccc right?
Where can I get a ccc from?
I have just ordered a new CCC for my 2006 330i it is same model modul 1 PL2 so will it be plug and play once I swap it out for my non working one? Or will I have to get it coded at a shop
As long as the car is came from has the same stereo config as your car, it will work. If not coding will be needed. Basically just plug it in and see how it works. With a bit of luck you should be ok.
Zero To 60 Alright I’ll have to see when it arrives thanks so much!
How do you code the radio to your vehicle?
Its a relatively easy thing, once you have the software setup. But i would recommend putting aside 2-4 hours to learn how to set the software up and do the coding. We coded it using NCS expert and NCS dummy.
Hi brother,i have 2006 e64 the screen comes on perfectly,just that audio play and stop play and stop imagine driving convertible without music geeeesh what might be the problem ? thank you,,,,,,,from South Africa
quick question i would love if someone answered. When getting a replacement CCC system, does it need to have all matching numbers on the label like on mine says it is an 01-08 HW 12.6 BA901071038870. so does the replacment have to be the exact same or can it be a different one? Love the videos
No any ccc will work, but it may require coding. If you can get one from the same spec car, so same screen same amplifier and speaker setup it will plug and play for most features.
Hey, love the videos. So I bought a bmw 2014 328d a week ago, my Idrive is stuck on the bmw logo I can’t use anything, not even my sound system. Any suggestions on what may be wrong. And if I can fix it by my self or would I have to get a mechanic to fix it?
And forgot to mention the previous owner used one of thoses big car speakers as there sound system idk if that plays a part as to why my idrive doesnt work
Have you tried the solution, I have the same problem?
I have the same issue. Did you all resolve it ?
Can I swap from a ccc to a cci ?? Or up . E60 525i 2008
Did you have to do any kind of programming with the "new" ccc unit, or you just take it out from another car and put it in your car?
No, well im not sure actually. CCC is not vin locked, so if the vehicle spec if the same it will just work. However if the donor vehicle had different options coding may be required.
hey so i bought a used e90 and im pretty sure i bought a used unit for the back and installed it and had a mechanic go over the car witha reader and told me the head unit was dead and was likely the problem my screen doesnt turn on at all all i get is door chimes when its plugged in. any ideas ?
Likely the unit
Hi mate I’ve got a 2011 BMW f10 520d the IDRIVE screen does not come on at all also the radio and volume doesn’t work either any ideas on what it can be?
Did you find out what it was?
I’ve got a 2005 E60 525i. The I drive tries to come on the screen and falters. The knob seems to be very free moving ( don’t know if that’s how they are) . Any ideas ?
Yeah that is normal for the knob on a e60, they only go notching when there is a relevant menu on the screen
Was hast du gemacht bei meiner ccc ist das gleiche problem
