Thanks so much guys. Just popped a replacement DAB in no problem
You two fellas are the real deal 💪
😂 Thanks! We aim to please! 😁
Fantastic video thank you. Just for future reference my Freelander 2 2013 plate the DAB module is on the right (offside). It also has a green 4 pin power input socket not the black 2 pin.Worth checking which one you have before purchase. Managed to get one from Ebay £75. Landrover quoted £815!!! Thank you so much for your help with this issue.
So glad you enjoyed the video and it helped! 😁🔧 More videos coming soon!
I think you will find that the unit is probably installed on various makes and models of vehicles
It probably is! But hopefully a handy guide if anyone needs it! 😁🙏
Thanks - just fixed mine 20 minute job with a 50 quid unit from ebay -- did not need to remove the rubber seal as the trim pulls out from underneath . If you accidentally blow the interior light fuse ( the boot light is lit as the tailgate is open ! ) as I did strangely this also feeds the drivers door window control panel
Glad the video helped! 🙂 More videos coming soon!
Great video as usual. Don't think mine has DAB but am wondering if it can be retro fitted.
Might be worth touching up the few rust patched on the dog guard near the welds and squirting some lanoguard in the tubes as they had some surface rust in.
Like a lot of bits on the FL2, you'll notice its a Ford part. I guess they just fitted it in there because it was out of the way.
Oh very much so 😂 And Volvo parts too!
Reason it has loads of fittings is it’s a Ford unit and made to fit loads of models
Ahhh that probably does explain it! We was surprised how badly it was fitted though! 😱
I probably would have checked if it worked before putting everything back together 😅
A good tip! 🤣 Rather frustrating to find out if it hadn’t worked to then undo everything again! 😅
Next time better do a dry test if the unit is working before putting all the interior trims back together 🤗
We always forget do this! 🤣 Must be the excitement of putting it all back together without thinking does this even work yet? 😁 Will try to remember next time 🙏🤩
@@FrenchiesRoadTrips better save than sorry 👌💚
Great video. Can you give me more details of the dog guard, please?
Hello! 🙂 Thanks! It’s a LandRover dog guard. We have since fitted a Barjo cage which we cover in a video.
Great vid. Is there a part number for the dab module? Struggling to find one…
Thank you 😁🙌 So, we believe this is the part number you need: CPLA14F720BK
Hope this helps! 🙌
Thanks. I’ve also found this one, both seem to come up with parts although over £100 currently. VP6F6F-19C034
No problem 🙂 Wow, they have gone up in price! 😱 I think I paid around £60 from a breakers yard.
did your DAB fault also cause the radio and central unit to intermittently short itself/cut out for a couple of seconds and then restart each time?
Hello! 🙂 Hmm we are not sure it did this. I wonder if it’s the DVD drive under the drivers seat causing it? Can you hear any abnormal noises from under the seat? Very odd for the radio to cut. Try using the radio without the engine running. Does it start playing up when you change channel or frequency? Let us know how you get on! 🙏
Mine is doing that right now. I was putting it down to a faulty parking sensor, but it's now doing that even when I clear the sensor fault. It's now not recognising my phone on bluetooth. Time to replace the main unit I think.
Hey my audio/video option is blacked out on infotainment doesnot have white border like navigation and is not responding white touch what to do?
Could you add dab i have an fl2 2011 the button says digital on it but iv only ever got fm on it
Hello 🙂 Hmmm it’s likely it only does have FM. Bens Freelander 2 is a 2011 XS with the digital button but only receives FM/AM. You can probably buy the module but would need the aerial wire, which attaches to the last left passenger window. The radio would then have to programmed updating the CCF file using a suitable device. You can do it just need the components and updating of the radio 🙂🙌
Should a 09 freelander 2 hse have dab ??
It may not, worth checking to see if the DAB module is located in the boot behind the trim 🙂
Just tryed doing mine only to find I don't have one?
Hello! 🙂 What year of Freelander 2 do you have? Ahhh, depends on the trim level. Majority of the head units fitted have the FM digital button. However, Land Rover did not fit DAB systems into all trim levels (sneaky). You can update the ccf file on the unit and fit a DAB unit but this can be expensive. Unfortunately the units cannot be swapped over very easily as coded to the car.
It's an 07 HSE!
@@jensenbound694 I think the early versions of the Freelander 2 didn’t have DAB unfortunately unless it was added on as an option
I have exactly the same issue with my XF s sportbrake 2018. Are they not coded to the car?
