BMW NO Audio/Radio FIX! A Very Simple $10 Part
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 апр 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.

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.
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?
NICE!! MY 335I just did the same thing. Going to try this!! Thanks!!
Cool I hope it works for you 👍🏻 let me know
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?
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
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
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
Greetings directly from Brazil my friend. Your tip was excellent and it worked perfectly for me. Thank you very much
Name of the part
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.
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
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?
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
Thank you for the video I just ordered one and put it on and it works thanks
Wats the name of the piece
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.
😊
you're are so awesome !!! Thanks for the help, it also worked for me. Thank you so much!
Is that the fiber optic audio line that's just getting bypassed by looping it into itself
Thank you,worked like a champ.
😀
Glad to hear 👍🏻
Have you fixed that other light that came on? The one for the lights?
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
so if i have audio and no sos, but its super quiet ( i just replaced the dash part) would this work?
Question I was told on my 09 335I if replacement of amp it needs to be programmed by a bmw specialist is that correct ?
Will this work for a 08 BMW X5 my stereo turns on but just make any sound
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
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?
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
After you use the loop.. do you disconnect the loop plug everything back in??
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 🙏🏽
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 do that, does the navigation system still work?
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.
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????
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 really enjoyed the sabbath when u turned it back on, u should’ve let that play out
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?
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?
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
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.
Thank you so much OP!
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
i have a 2006 bmw 325i and my sound occasionally works then it cuts out. will this work for my car?
Thank you kindly for this
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?
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?
What, exactly, does this bypass? What won't work after I plug this in?
Did you install the Aux cord for your iPod?
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.
How far is the module for cheap to 330 ci
Worked perfectly, thank you!
Good to hear 👍🏻 glad it worked for you :)
@@ArtByAdrock Do I need the male or the female part?
I haver a 2014 428I that got water in the trunk, would this fix it ?
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?
the aux works?
Do you think this would work on my 2000 528i wagon
Would using a fm transmitter work too instead of fixing it if radio works and want to use aux?
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 :)
How did u cut off the casing blocking the plugs
Tried this on my 2008 550i and didn’t seem to work. please help
What was the part that you ordered on Amazon? That was not clear from the video
I have a 2011 z4 the same thing happened but I don’t see that unit could it be somewhere else
Does it mess with the quality of the sound or is the sound normal as it shoot be with this hack?
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?
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
Thank you!
I have a steady red and yellow light on the bottom of the amp, which means my amp is good but still no sound!!
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 ?
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
Will this work for any model BMW 2007 750LI???
I have 2015 328i gt , idk where i can find loop to loop connector in my car, can you help please.
Thanks so much. I just sucscribed and look forward to checking out your art. Cheers
blaster seven I’m tryin to get this piece ?
I wonder would it work for all 3 series
Tried it and still had no sound. Light was blinking red so it had power. Anything I can possibly be doing wrong?
Hi there will it work for a 2007 650i? And where would my module be located? I have idrive and screen is just pitch black and no radio no stereo ..
L. Herrera in the trunk on the left side of the wall
Does this work on 2009 335i?
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....
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:(
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
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...
My speakers work but don’t sound that good would that help or it’s the amp I know the speakers work
THANK YOU 😊
Hey bro my radio doesnt even light up. You reckon this will solve my problem aswell? Checked the fuse apparently they all fine
Hi was your audio for seatbelt, sensors, and door chime gone also?
Did you figure yours out?
Does this work on a 2011 e71 x6m
I bought the the piece that’s already cut off and nothing worked... but also I have the sos and no sound to emergency seat belts and no sound when doors are open. So what do you suggest is wrong with it ?
Where did you get the piece with no housing?
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 ?
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
Can you post a link to Amazon? I don’t know what it’s called to buy the piece
Would that work for a 430i 2018?
Hi guys, my BMW X5 E70 3.0sd also has a chime/sound problem. It already gave an SOS malfunction on the dashboard since I had the car, but one year later - out of the blue - the car got completely silence. I still have the SOS malfunction on my dashboard, all other things seem to work, bot NO SOUNDS, NO CHIMES, nothing! Bought the by-pass connector (had to cut some plastic), tried it on several boxes that I located on the left back of the car, but still nothing happens (I think I tried 3 connectors there and they all had red lights on the fiber cable when I unplugged it). Are there any more boxes located in the car? Have I missed one? However, the day it stopped working we've had a very heavy thunderstorm and there was water on the inside of my car (exactly where the boxes are located there was water on the bottom that came in through the back lights). What got be my issue? Thanks in advance!
I’m not exactly sure but something could have gotten fried from the water. Could be the wiring shorted somewhere. Wish I could be more help
What if it’s the amp can I use this method to make my radio stop sounding muffled ? I hear music but it’s muffled I went to a audio shop and they said my amp had water damage. Could I still try this or I’m doomed ?
I have this issue , did u try it ?
I had same problem but as soon as I installed that it works perfectly fine
What was the part name
I have a 2008 BMW 535 I twin Turbo having similar issues with the SOS symbol but radio works fine CD player works fine but my auxiliary is greyed out can you help
It could be a similar problem but I’m not completely sure. You could get the part and try it on the different boxes in your trunk but I’m not sure if it will help
What’s the module called on Amazon?
sorry what is the name of the part or how can I order it?
*_My Girlfriend's grandfathers BMW has this problem. I'm going to try this tomorrow and see how it goes!_*
Wait, what was the box doing then? You closed the circuit with that loop thingy and audio works?
Can u please post a video on how to cut that piece?
Do you know if this can work for 2007 X3? Thanks!
I’m not sure if it will. I would like to think that they kinda kept the same wiring for all models but I can’t say for sure. I’d say there’s prob an 80% chance at least that it’s the same.
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
I have a 2006 330i cant choose am or fm. However cd dvd works, i can hear all the sounds except am fm
My radio works but when I turn it up it’s staticky can you help me with that??????
