BMW NO Audio/Radio FIX! A Very Simple $10 Part
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 เม.ย. 2018
- My 2007 BMW 335i radio stopped working so here is a very simple fix to get it working again by only spending $10. This optical loop bypass is very easy to install. It originally didn't fit on my car so I had to modify it by cutting off the housing to expose the two plugs.
Amazon states that it fits on all German cars.. BMW, Audi, Porsche, VW, etc.. but that's a total lie. But you can still make it work. The
module is located in the trunk underneath the carpet. Just lift it up and you'll see it. Remove the plug going to the module and attach
this piece. That's all there is to it! Very simple fix. If you need help, please leave me a comment and I'll see what I can do.

All of these other videos with so many views and you explained it best, thank you
You’re welcome 👍🏻 I hope this helped you
What’s the wire called?
Thanks for posting this video- truly grateful sir. I purchased this item from Amazon based on your recommendation and it worked!
can you tell me how to search amazon, what is to buy, thanks
What piece is it I need it
Greetings directly from Brazil my friend. Your tip was excellent and it worked perfectly for me. Thank you very much
Name of the part
NICE!! MY 335I just did the same thing. Going to try this!! Thanks!!
Cool I hope it works for you 👍🏻 let me know
Omg thank you very much I had a Bluetooth stereo too lol 😂 but mine just suddenly started working on it’s own,but if it breaks again I now know what to do 👍👍👍x
What a strange fix. I’m not a car guy. That was very interesting. About ten years ago the engine light came on my truck. Went to the dealership to see what was the issue. I had a small child at the time, didn’t need a breakdown with her in the car.
4 hours later, the dealership technician informed me the issue can be fixed in two days, $1,576 US dollars. To me: the money was not a big issue, the safety of my child and passengers were the issue. Not to mention a two day car rental. On my way home, stopped for gas. An employee at the dealership came up to me and said. (I had seen her at the the dealership). She said the fix was very simple. She walked me thru the process. It was a pug and play part. Went to auto part store. The part was $65 dollars and I was able to fix in 20 minutes. Sometimes dealership are as croaked as they come.
By the way the girl at the dealership. I married her two kids later. I’m still not allowed to take car to dealerships. Haha, I guess it worked out in the end.
perfect choice for life ... good luck
Great story, does she have a sister? Continued success and many more blessings unto you sir.
you're are so awesome !!! Thanks for the help, it also worked for me. Thank you so much!
Worked perfectly and radio and now voice module works 100% THANK YOU SO MUCH BRO
Awesome! Glad to hear 👍🏻
How do you use this loop do I leave a connected for do I disconnected and pluck everything back in
What's the pice called
Thank you so much. Someone that explained it well.❤
No prob. Hopefully it helped you 👍🏻
I'm having the same problem with my BMW with the radio do you know the name of that part
@@starbob9805 art
Thanks Truly!
I and my husband just fixed this issue about 2 hours ago (6/30/24)in my 2008 BMW 335i.
It sounds like new.
😊
Thank you for the video I just ordered one and put it on and it works thanks
Wats the name of the piece
Thank you,worked like a champ.
😀
Glad to hear 👍🏻
I have a 2007 335i manual that lost radio audio, but had no other symptoms or indicator lights. This fixed it right up. Thanks man!
Show Me What You Got so you didn’t have the sos symbol?
I have no power to any of the fiber Optic wires going to the back or amp or sat? What could it be
Did you bypass the module or the amp ,
Mechanic tells me I need the Amp and needs to be programmed $1400 is that right
@@luiscosta19123456 I took the module out of the circuit with the bypass. I bought the part in his description that required no modification. I'd try this first before forking over 1400. The part is cheap.
What’s the wire called?
Thank you so much OP!
Good news matey I just finished lathing the Graphite coin molds and they came out bloody great I’ll send em your way probably Monday or Tuesday afternoon with some other goods as I have to go to post office early this week.
Also what do you do for a living? I’m a plant operator 🤨
Oh that’s awesome I can’t wait! I’m a bartender/restaurant manager for a local tavern
Great video! Did a great job being concise and solving the problem! My only criticism is why take the time to make this video and help people and not simply SAY WHAT THE PART IS CALLED?? Everyone has to go search thru comments and find your reply which took longer than watching the video.
The product link is in the description if you look there. I guess I should have made that more clear. Sorry about that
Thank you kindly for this
I really enjoyed the sabbath when u turned it back on, u should’ve let that play out
Thanks I ordered the part! Hope its the right one because I ordered one from before but it was the wrong size
@greed6814 pls tell me
Worked perfectly, thank you!
Good to hear 👍🏻 glad it worked for you :)
@@ArtByAdrock Do I need the male or the female part?
Worked perfectly with the precut piece , effortless plug in play . This shit was haunting me for 3 months
I know the feeling.. glad it worked for you 👍🏻
What kind of bmw do you have?
This saved me so much money and time. Thank you so much. It worked perfectly and only took about 5mins to install 😃
What part is it, I'm having the exact same problem
@@m6roddbankkingfishing136 bro i have the same problem, do u know what this thing is now?
Thank you. Good video. Is this the same for most BMW's around this era? Common problem among different models of the era? THanks
I’m having the same issue and I believe I have pinpointed it to a bad amplifier which I believe is what that optical wire gets connected to. What I’m wondering is what the repercussions are for not having it connected?
Thanks so much. I just sucscribed and look forward to checking out your art. Cheers
blaster seven I’m tryin to get this piece ?
Worked for my 2008 BMW 335i. Thanks!
So I’m the trunk of the E90 you have on the left the module that connects to the phone or satilite? But what is the other big module thing on the right in the trunk? My car is missing both I have neither of the modules that go in the trunk, and my radio has no sound the knob on the radio does nothing, and I don’t have the sos light on the dash, Thanks.
Is that the fiber optic audio line that's just getting bypassed by looping it into itself
Will this work for a 08 BMW X5 my stereo turns on but just make any sound
What if you don’t have the satellite unit in your car like in the one where you connected to? Is that a tell sign why it doesn’t work? Connecting that piece , will male it work I’m assuming? Also, I don’t see any of those connections little red light turn on, do I have to have my key on? Thanks bud 🙏🏽
Thank you that was pretty informative. I have same bmw as yours. 2007 coupe. My problem is I cannot make the phone/bluetooth work. Not sure if u have video on this. I am new here. But if you have any advise, that would be great!
The bybass did help me and a lot of others but it depends on what is actually wrong. BMW uses a looped fiber optics that ties into everything so you have to try the bypass on which is actually bad. Hope that helps you a little
Thank you!
*_My Girlfriend's grandfathers BMW has this problem. I'm going to try this tomorrow and see how it goes!_*
Have you fixed that other light that came on? The one for the lights?
Question I was told on my 09 335I if replacement of amp it needs to be programmed by a bmw specialist is that correct ?
I have the same problem but I do not have the SOS light, do you think this could still be my problem? please help me man
THANK YOU 😊
After you do that, does the navigation system still work?
Is there a bypass for a 2006 E53 x5 radio module? A Becker bm53? Need help ASAP. Can’t access radio, tape or aux
After you use the loop.. do you disconnect the loop plug everything back in??
I got the same car and got that little part And it works and i didn’t have to cut the plastic around it, but whenever I shut off the car it stops working. Is that how yours is also? I have to put it on every drive cycle? Also sometimes it doesn’t work it’s so annoying.
I had same problem but as soon as I installed that it works perfectly fine
What was the part name
so if i have audio and no sos, but its super quiet ( i just replaced the dash part) would this work?
I have a steady red and yellow light on the bottom of the amp, which means my amp is good but still no sound!!
Okay so my car was working fine after the aftermarket stereo and then one day it randomly crackled and beeped and stopped working😭 would this work for my car as wellv
So on this particular BMW, there are two plugs. one on the r
front top device and one on the back bottom of the device. there no fan of any sort like in this video........do I buy two of the loop things because one does not work for either of the plugs. I suppose if I got two of them and unplugged them both and capped them with the loop thing, it may work????
Hello , thanks for that video, I’m having the same problem, what’s the name of that wire piece? Thank you
Hey man so I got a 07 335i too, I have no radio, is it possible to hook up the speakers to a aux without the head unit? I’m 15 and kinda broke just seeing if you have an idea.
On mine the radio doesnt even light up displaying the different radio stations, however still ejects the CD? You reckon this will solve the problem?
What, exactly, does this bypass? What won't work after I plug this in?
Good job man,,,you kno how to do a video to help others wow,,,,,however i have 650 i convertible 2006 model,,the radio come on and off including that bip pong pong pong on and off,,what might be the problem brother,,,,,,,,,from South Africa
Hello, I have the same problem for 2 months now, no audio coming at all even with warning lights there should come some sound but theres not... im gonna try to do some kind of same thing tomorrow, lets see if it helps :)
Would this work for a 2017 X3? I dont have audio for my radio (both FM and AM ) stations but do
do have audio coming from Sirius radio, CD, Door, seat belt warning, Bluetooth, Apple Car play and they all work...
I tried resetting the radio by holding down the power button. Radio stations are showing but no sound.
I’ve had this same problem and I can’t figure it out. I’ve bypassed the same thing that you did and I get the red light at the connection under the dash so the loop is complete but it still isn’t working for me. What else could it be?
I’ve got the same issue but can’t make bluetooth phone calls either. Not seeing anyone else mention that. Wondering if this will fix both issues?
i have a 2006 bmw 325i and my sound occasionally works then it cuts out. will this work for my car?
Eyyy bro really like the video I’m actully getting one from amazon that FITS without modding can u believe that lol right 😆.....it’s an extra 20$ from the others but worth it......now I noticed u were in the truck n read your info about the vid as well is yours a 4door or coupe ? I have the navigation is this module under the trunk in the center or by the battery right back corner ? Mines 2007 bmw 335i coupe with the N54 twin turbo rear wheel drive......let me know if u got any info or advice cause my screen try’s to come on it flashes then out again does it every 7-12 minutes of driving I can even hear my speakers n tweeters click even when the car is off and I have the power of the car and ignition completely off.....so I’m pretty sure n hoping same issue you had.....they say it’s the telephone communication module that fails.....yet bmw says u don’t have it installed n still try’s to charge you 1800$ for it LMAO 15 years latter ya right....great video thanks 🙏🏻
Same issue here except I have no nav & no idrive
Hi, does this work for 2009 BMW 328xi? audio not turning on. sporadically it turns on by itself for a 30 seconds and turns off
thanks for uploading this video I know when you take a BMW for issues like this they always want to rip you off. Can you please tell me what is the part name so I can order it. thanks again!
I need it too
What perfect timing with the radio coming back to life with a the coughing from Black Sabbath's Sweet Leaf. I'm going to try this out. We do not see the SOS warning though so it may not apply. The dealership said they coudn't find anything, go figure.
I have the same problem (1st gen e90), no gong/pdc/music the display and idrive seems to be working but no sound. did you get it fixed?
@@gchavgo9968 Did you?
@@descendingz6017 yes, in my case it was the ground (brown) cable in the trunk, inside the rubber trunk lid. Cut the rubber trunk lid open and inspect. After reconnecting the brown cable everything worked again.
Thank you for this video.! Mines been like this for a yr now. just bought the piece cant wait to see if it works 🙏
You’re welcome 👍🏻 hopefully it works out for you
Any updates by chance?
Any update, please?
What does Square box exactly do? Just create phone service for a car phone? Or is there an actual purpose for it? Jw I'm in the same boat.
Nice nice.it happened to my bmw x5
I just removed all the fuses connected to the radio control to make sure they weren't blown. All good. I guess it reset the radio cuz its working, for now. 😉 2016 428i
I have 2016 435i and have the same problem right now. I dont even know where to start
Tried this on my 2008 550i and didn’t seem to work. please help
I haver a 2014 428I that got water in the trunk, would this fix it ?
Did you install the Aux cord for your iPod?
Will this work for any model BMW 2007 750LI???
Would this work in my 2005 e60? My sound keeps cutting out and I drive freezes! If I get optical loop what should I connect it to? Thanks
Did you solve the problem?
Hey bro my radio doesnt even light up. You reckon this will solve my problem aswell? Checked the fuse apparently they all fine
I installed this gadget 2 years ago. same symptoms of no radio sound is back, pain in the neck. do this plugs go bad?
Are they just a bypass, is it a fusible link?
thank you for the video
2011 328i, the screen backlight comes on but theres no letters or numbers. It has come back on before but it has since went back off. Now the backlight comes on then goes completely off about 30 seconds after the car is started. Would this part fix that?
Do you think this would work on my 2000 528i wagon
Hi , I got the same problem with my BMW 520d mSport 2013. I bought that part and did what you did. It now blowing fuse anymore but there is still no sound. What could that be ?
*_This is the most amazing car hack I've seen so far_*
Can u please post a video on how to cut that piece?
I have a 2011 z4 the same thing happened but I don’t see that unit could it be somewhere else
I have 2015 328i gt , idk where i can find loop to loop connector in my car, can you help please.
Is it possible to need more then one bypass I’ve had my car for 10 months now WITH NO SOUND ! I bought 2 bypasses and nothing
I have a 320i e92, but it only has an amplifier but not satellite module thing like yours, so im screwed with the sound not working:(
What was the part that you ordered on Amazon? That was not clear from the video
Can you post a link to Amazon? I don’t know what it’s called to buy the piece
What about the auxiliary? My radio works but my aux does not. I bought the aux piece and still nothing I have a 2008 128i bmw...
Tried it and still had no sound. Light was blinking red so it had power. Anything I can possibly be doing wrong?
Hi, Thanks for the video.Just bought a 2008 335 E92 without any audio from the Car, after watching your video 2 days ago, I bought the bypass optical loop from Canada Amazon and I've received it today. Tried it in my Car and NO sound still, but the SOS light is gone and I can connect my phone to the Car Bluetooth (of which I do not know if the car has bluetooth before). Please where do you think I missed it? Or is Canadian optical loop different from the States? please advise.
Ematech Resources LTD did u figure it out ?
Bro can you help me please ? I have a bme e81 2007 i do what you say in the video and dont work !! The audio dont work the volum but when i do what you do dont work
Hi nice video i have a 08 550i no radio in in 6 months. FM on the radio on the dash will not engage, popping the trunk i disconnected the amp led and it is red. and the serious satellite radio is red but nothing else in the loop.
Hmmmm the amp could be blown and needs replacing. Do you have any sound at all? Door chimes or anything?
I had a same audio problem with my 2011 3 series, I fixed the sound problem by disconnected the battery, waited for 5 minutes and reconnected the battery, that's works for me, hope this help .
hmm
Did your car have this crackling sound with no bass and if so how exactly did you fix it
martinhd288 Did your car have this crackling sound with no bass and if so how exactly did you fix it
Zech Loftin did you manage to fix your issue? If so, what was the solution? I recently got the same, crackling sound, very quiet almost no volume, no bass at all.
thank you sir! unplug, plug in the battery solved the issue! Mine is 2012 x3
How did u cut off the casing blocking the plugs
How far is the module for cheap to 330 ci
I have a 2006 330i cant choose am or fm. However cd dvd works, i can hear all the sounds except am fm
Does it mess with the quality of the sound or is the sound normal as it shoot be with this hack?
I wonder would it work for all 3 series
Me, on my bmw x1 the radio just stop if I put the volume up, like its working at a certain volume but above this limit the radio stop working. I also have the sound on only one door in the front, but the sounds change of door everyday. One day on the left side, the day after the other side....
Do u thing same problem with my 2004 BMW X5?
I pray this will work on my 440i… because a new head unit or amp is going to cost way too much 😨
Hi was your audio for seatbelt, sensors, and door chime gone also?
Did you figure yours out?
My speakers work but don’t sound that good would that help or it’s the amp I know the speakers work
i have the same problem but i cannot locate that module on my 08 E88 135i.
Hallo to everyone
My Radio also Stop working
No Sound at all
And on displey is no more nothing... Im wondering If will Help also to me!?
