guys need some quick assistance
I am in a fortunate position where a friend is PX'in my old 530d in and he has said i can have the MK3 Sat Nav unit and 16:9 monitor in a swap for my MK2 unit and 4:3 monitor
Brilliant, swap the Nav unit and monitor into the M5 and it all powers up and starts working as i expected - didnt need to swap TV tuners which means mine was a 16:9 unit already
Now, here is where the good time stop.... Plug my 4:3 into the 530d and nothing on the screen, not even turning on!! The radio works, the sat nav works (if you can get the right option) the multi changer work there is sound the wheel controls work but it would appear no power to the actual screen.
So, any idea's why??
It also appears that 16:9 and Sav nav was a retro fit to the 530d
There are 10 wires in my original loom in the M5 yet only 8 in the 530d...... (the white plug that goes into the monitor)
Is it a simple thing like i need another power/ignition/earth to the plug that controls the screen part of the head unit? If so does anyone have a wiring diagram ideally both the 4:3 and 16:9 looms......
I have tired every combo in the M5 and it all works. ANy combo works in the 530d until I fit the 4:3 screen
HELP.......
