If my current screen is like this one, an 8.8" screen already, and it is sun damaged, if I replace it with a second hand identical screen, will it require coding? or any extra process to make it work?

It's fine without coding :)

Hey! You mean you present screen or the one you'd like to install?

@rockm4366 9 ай бұрын

Does the screen have any software or hardware components built in it or it's just a screen?

This is only a screen :)

we know nothing about bimmercode methods! We think the best method would be to contact our sales team: info@bimmer-tech.net

I've purchased a replacement screen for my 2015 F30 and it is an exact replacement (I have the 8.8" screen from factory). The trim came off fine, and the screws are removed, but the wire running to the original screen that it will barely lift an inch off the dashboard. Nothing else is holding it. The wiring harness is extremely short. I can't turn it around or get behind it to disconnect the wires. Any advice would be appreciated.

I was able to solve this issue. I have the Harmon Kardon head unit and navigation built in. The wire from the head unit is much shorter than in the video. I had to take off a few more pieces of trim and loosen the head unit to move it forward without disconnecting it. This gave slack in the cable so I could swap the screen. It's a few more pieces of trim, and T20 screws but not a big deal.

Hi I have 2015 F20 NBT idrive needs to repalce the screen. Should I recode to match to my current car? The other screen is an identical screen second hand from donor. Thank you

www.bimmer-tech.net/page-installers - here you can find our installer in Sydney, but we don't guarantee him doing it, because the screen replacement is not from our shop :)
