- If have bought one have these Android auto/ CarPlay unit for you BMW 5 series and after installing you are not getting any audio from the AUXILIARY this is how to fix it.
* DO NOT REPIN YOUR AUXILIARY WIRE*
It should be left as it is, instead what you want to do is pay attention to the wires at the back of the harnesses and there position and do a retrofit of the harness on your auxiliary cable to fit the second slot. It’s not made for that side so you will need to cut off the pieces that stops it from going. Be careful when doing this, I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY IS YOU DAMAGE YOUR HARNESS. Once you’ve done that put the harnesses in place plug up and you should have audio.
YOUR CAR NEEDS TO BE CODED FOR AUXILIARY IF IT DOESNT HAVE IT ALREADY.
You can find tons of videos on how to code your car for auxiliary on TH-cam.
Thanks for watching consider subbing to my channel and like the video for more. - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
Hay que conectar el cable negro y rojo de la pantalla android al mazo de cables nuevo?
Thank you so much! I had the same issue. The Pins where not there where they had to be, nie its fine
Bro el coche solo tiene opción en CCC de aux Rear no hay Aux in sabrías decir la solución ?
Thank you bro
Bro.. no me va el audio del coche no tenia aux antes ahora se lo compre crees que me irá si le enchufo el aux ? Tengo pantalla android y antes no me salía aux solo radio fm y CD. O tendré que llevarlo a la BMW que me activen el aux
sometimes it’s the fiber optic cable you have to get it from the oem harness and put it in the new system harness you got
Thanks for your guidance. My car is e60 525 2006 with no AUX. I bought AUX activator, my question do I need to activate AUX on the original screen or on the new android screen?
Once you have coded the car for AUX input it’s available on both.
I’ve installed CarPlay on my 530 e60, but he play only radio frequencies, if I play Spotify music they didn’t play, he also continue to play radio, so I think I need to code aux on my car?( the car came out without AUX port or option on infotainment option).
Yes sounds like you need coding for AUXILIARY, it’s pretty simple to do and there are tons of videos on here that tells you step by step how to go about it. Get it coded then if any problems still with audio I will walk you through the fix.
@@kelfordleslie I’ve try to code AUX, but I’ve an android system in my e60 and I can’t read the ECU to code it, do I need to code the aux source with the stock CCC?
When you connect inpa to your car does it show that its connected? If inpa doesn’t show the battery and ignition connected then you need to change the com port on your computer to com port one, if it’s not on com port one inpa or ncs expert won’t read and connect to your idrive to allow you to code the module. Your android unit have access to the idrive system so that won’t be the issue. Sounds like the com port on your computer is incorrect and that’s why you can’t connect to the idrive. Also check you have the correct ODB cable
Nice video, I had a shop repair my idrive but now no air coming out of front vents only back ones. Do you have an idea what the issue might be? Thanks
The dial that sets the air circulation in the car could be offset, you want to that first.
@@kelfordleslie thanks for your response, turns out they forgot to connect the cable to the heating vent when they installed car play. It’s all good now. Thanks for your help
Just fitted mine no sound from the front speakers can you help? Many thanks
If you are getting sound from the rear speakers then check the settings and adjust the audio balance. If you get no sound at all see my other video.
My main question is “ does the aux running from your cd player unit, have to be plugged into your aux Jack”..?
If your car has an AUX port that means your car came coded with AUX functionality already and swapping out your head unit will work the same.
@@kelfordleslie I just installed my unit last night actually, and when I was playing it without the auxiliary plugged in it was only playing on the front speakers, and when I plugged in that auxiliary, it worked all around so you do need to plug it in to your original port.
@kubadon1 check the setting of your audio to ensure it is not mono but stereo
I need the step by step bro. My car isnt coded for aux. Does it need to ce coded for aux to run BT as well
You need to code in aux if you want to have any audio output through any android system in the e60, because its the only way you can send audio signals in this car.
Plus you have to have an AUX IN slot.
Yes, you have to activate the aux line if you dont have aux . Will not matter what you do until then. They have a adapter that will activate the line...
Sorry for the late reply yes it has to be coded for AUX.
How did u with an mask an bigger display i have mini dispay please help meeeee
You will have to explain to me what problem you are having, because the procedure will be the same for both.
@@kelfordleslie I bought a larger screen but it's still not big or rather it's the same as the old one and small
I have sound from original radio but i can't switch on AUX, it goes automatic on main menu, what do i need to do with that. Thanks ✌️
Good afternoon, I also have this problem, how can I do this?
did you find how to do it?
@@armenaslanyan3803 yes man, you need to plug AUX cable in original car aux output and put it the aux jack what is going to the diaplay near the big jack where you plug in the display and original radio jack
@@bozeboze6144 Thank you
What can I do if my factory aux port is broken did not fall through it simply don’t work for aux
Thanks that's exactly what's wrong with mine friend but am not the greatest with wiring audio could you break it down a bit for me
Uploading a breakdown of it for you pal.
Something like that happens to my car after the android display men and i was thinking maybe can be the fiber optic cable
I have another video showing how to fix it, have a look at that video.
Yo
but let me understand that you removed the aux plug, but if you put the music on android you have sound
If you don’t fix the AUX you will not get any sound at all even if you put music on the android unit, because the audio goes from the android unit to the idrive then to the speakers. So if the AUX isn’t fixed no sound can get to the idrive
