Hi, thanks for the video, it gave me the confidence to open mine up. I just wanted to add, you don't have to bend that piece up. There are two screws on the back and one on the top. Remove those, then the tabs around the edges free quite easily with a flathead screwdriver, then the whole top lifts off. The tabs along the face are not screwed in.
Thank You, I hit my radio to turn it on, Blammo! Knob broke. I was wondering how to get in there. Thank you for taking the time to post. Now the fun part. 👍
Thanks for the video, my on/off works fine but the volume won't turn up/down, i tried to spray it with contact cleaner but it doesn't help. Do i have to replace the whole rotary/optical volume knob?
Thank you so much for this video my button was broken I fixed it. I let the battery go dead so when I jump started it with jumper cables the radio act like it was stolen that's why the button breaks
Is it possible also to clean the CD lens inside with a soft cotton piece and warm water? Is it easy to have access to the lens, because my player has issues with reading some CDs.

Thanks, just followed your steps and I fixed mine. It was cracked, so super glued it.
Thank you so much for this tutorial! My stereo wouldn’t turn on out of no where and I was able to fix it!

This is what hopefully fixes my radio I can't even turn it on since I've owned it
Nah fam I tried it now I can't even see what time it is lol
Did you happen to break the green circuit board when repairing it or removing the radio?
Thank u ! really need to see this video to fix my volume button!!
Thanks for the video I have just sorted my radio knob :)
Amazing! Thank you so much

Will try this ! Hope for the best!!
Take the three screws on top off. The plate come off, no need to bend or brake plate.
Thank you
Just got a 2000 328ci, and I can turn the radio on/off and when trying to turn the volume down, it gets super loud a lot of the time. Same issue, or?
I would check to see if the inner tab is broken, then this fix should work!
Greeat!
Huuu looks we getting some vidz on the e46 touring? great ;)
PAULO! What's up? :D
That super glue looked like it went all the way down and barely touched the clip.
+Gregory Asher It was the best shot on film I could get because of the extreme close-up. Fear not, I was able to actually get glue on the two pieces!
I figured you had done a decent enough job, just had a laugh about it because on film it looked like you had totally missed.
haha, yup.
Radio nob repair on off or vol adjustable?
Both, you Stil adjust the volume just like new!
Thanks you saved my life 😂
Haha, Music = Life!
Ty so much man
Need help, my radio works fine except the screen, it doesn't show anything..
Usually it's the circuit board. It's usually easiest to replace the stereo as a whole ($40 or so online)
lolz at the backwards part
Thought you'd like that ;)
