VW radio touch screen fixed with a $12 part
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 20 июн 2023
- I installed the new digitizer touch screen over the original one, leaving the old one attached to the screen but disconnected from connector and simply plugged the new screen in where the original was plugged.
purchased the screens from this online store in Hong Kong
www.ebay.com/str/hanchigodauto
They have a ton of parts that are just not available from a dealer or other part supply store so is a great place to find what you need to repair your car.
The touch screen in my 2017 VW Passat has been a problem for a long while and the $ 1,000 plus aftermarket solution was not appealing to me....Allowing VW to repair it TOTALLY out of the question. So I decided to try replacing the capacitive touch screen. Probably every VW car will need this...I bought two to have a spare

This video was amazing!!!! Thank you! I just fixed my broken Jetta radio with this video. Putting the new screen on over the old screen worked perfectly. I'm so grateful. I'm a 60 year old woman and I did it all by myself and it worked perfectly. I'm so happy to have my radio working again. I ordered the screen, torque wrenches and a dashboard removal kit and I had no problems. Thank you thank you Thank you!!!!! Good job!!!
hi there, curious as to where you went for the screen (his link didn't redirect) did you go to ebay or another site. do i need to go to manual for part number? also where did you order the last 2 items (cost) i'm a new 2016 tiguan owner and this is the only thing that's wrong. thanks so much!
Thank you so much for this detailed guide! I successfully replaced my touchscreen today because of this video. They quoted me $2700 to replace the whole unit, and it cost me less than $27 to do this repair. Brilliant.
I have a 2017 Jetta with MIB2 infotainment. Is that the same as yours?
The step by step of every screw and the 'important ledge' info really helped me out. My screens been dead for a year and today with this tutorial I decided to give it a go. Bloody works perfect. I appreciate your efforts sir!
Thank you. I know I was thinking about selling the car...it is a huge PROBLEM...or it was. I have an extra screen incase it happens again
Your video has just saved me £165. I followed your video and was able to do the same as you - fitting the new digitiser screen over the old one, gentle with the electronics and ribbon cables and it is now working perfectly! To be honest, taking the unit out of the car was the most difficult bit. Thank you so much!!
This is an AWSOME video on repair of the touch sensor. The first that goes from start to finish and shows it all!
Can't thank you enough for this one!
Thanks !...it is what I wanted to see before I attempted the repair.
Could not find it, so I filmed it on the fly and happy to learn it is not so difficult and especially happy it works now !!
Thank you so much for this!! My touch screen on my 2017 VW Jetta SE started sporadically becoming unresponsive about 2 years ago and I resorted to using the AUX jack instead. I was about to purchase an aftermarket system and then I saw your video. Ordered the part using the link you provided, delivery took about 10 days, and just finished installing this and now it's working like new.
Another success story from The Netherlands. I ordered the (matt finish) screen for €6 and followed this youtube. Now I can finally control the radio with the touch screen in all corners. Thank you!!
I repaired my Skoda Yeti today. I would never have been able to do it without this video. Many thanks for your efforts! You are amazing
Thank you so much for the video. This gave me the confidence to change the touch screen on my VW CC media unit MIB Std2. I followed your guidance and completed it in about 90 minutes. Saved me an absolute fortune and so thanks again.
Many thanks. I replaced the touch screen in my VW CC today with the help of your video. Now working 100%. To think that a month ago I was thinking I would need to buy a new system.
Well alright! Add me to the list of those that are so grateful for your video. My 2017 Tiguan Sport has exactly the same radio control unit with navigation, which is now fully functional after the repair. Your video saved me from the hassle of trying to adapt and install an aftermarket head unit as a new VW OEM replacement is cost-prohibitive. THANK YOU!
Your guide helped me successfully install the digitizer. So thrilled to have my touchscreen back! If anyone has warning lights after install, it's probably due to disconnecting the battery. Just drive it around the block, turn off and back on and you should be good.
Thank you sir. You solved a problem I have been wrestling with for almost a year. New stereo for the Fender system is about $1,000 after market, no telling what the dealer is asking. Followed your instructions, including where to get the part, worked like a charm. Thank you!
It's fixed! Took about 2 hrs from start to finish, but the savings is so worth the effort! Thank you so much!
Thanks so much for your video. I have just replaced the touchscreen in my UK Sharan 2017. Slightly different part number on display box, but found it easy to do…even for an 80 year old!
Hi there. Just to say thank you for this video. I have just carried out the same proceedure on my VW Scirocco's faulty screen and it worked perfectly. You have just saved me a lot of money. Many thanks. Clive
Just want to thank you. I watched the video several times, I ordered from the link you provided. Today I did it! it took an hour or two but I took my time and wanted to get it right. It all went very smoothly. The touch screen works again, no issues, the back up cam, buttons, etc all work like with no issues. Also key, I did not trigger any airbag or CODES, like airbag, and I did not have to reenter the pin number. Thanks again!
awesome ! Right ?
Awesome! Thank you! Great instructions and my VW Caravelle now has perfectly working touch screen!
Thank you buddy. As others have said, this is the only complete video out there - every step of the process covered and explained in detail. I will now attempt my own fix with confidence. Thanks again!
did it work for you?
Thank you SOOOO much for this video! The detail and effor you put in is amazing. I've just followed your stpes to fix the uint on my Caravelle T6 and it worked like a charm!
Thanks very much for this detailed step by step video! I have had no touch screen functionality for several years and VW garage quoted a ridiculous price to change the unit. I bought a screen for £15 and had it in a box until I finally managed to get around to doing this. I had to go through most of it twice as there were to Torx 6 screws left over at the end! It took about two hours but now it’s all back together and seems as good as new!
Good to hear you enjoyed success with it.
If I ran VW, I would send out the screens for free or set up a process for repair not replace companies are sleazy now....they are not kind, caring or thoughtful towards their customers.
Thank you from Scotland replaced the touchscreen on my VW California ocean camper and no works perfectly, followed your instructions to the letter. Thank you very much, save me a fortune. 😊
hi, i have a VW T6 Caravelle, with the same problem, can I ask you where you found the original screen?
Thanks from Ireland. A very detailed video and a very satisfying task under this amazing instruction. My daughters 2107 VW Jetta Radio is now working perfectly again.
As the other comments below thanks so much for this guide. I was very apprehensive, especially the connections, but it worked out fine. Really appreciated the detail instructions and the hints on the connectors.
Awesome Video. Saved me a ton of money. Replaced touchscreen works like a charm. It took me 2hrs to remove the Radio from my Seat Alhamra, replace the digitiser, put it all together again and put it back into the car. Saved me almost 2k €.
Thank you so much for this walkthrough. Worked like a charm. Only difference was that the dash panel was a different configuration, but found another video on how to remove that version.
Thank you so much. Like so many commentators this fixed my unit. I couldn’t have done it without you. ❤
Greetings from Australia. Thank you so much for doing this video. It literally covers every step, down to the last screw. I have just done my VW Amarok pickup truck head unit (exactly the same as yours) and it works 100%! All the best to you
I am in Australia and have the same problem with caddy. Am I able to contact you to discuss fix?
Danke für das Video. Ich habe nach dieser Anleitung mein Discover Media repariert.
Das hat inklusive aus / einbau des Radios im Auto ca 2 Stunden gedauert.
Jede menge Geld gespart. Best regards from Germany ,
Thanks a ton for this video. Fixed the exact issue with my 2017 Jetta with unresponsive screen. $12 part, $12 precision screwdriver set, and this video. Good to go.
I have a 2017 Jetta too, will give it a try now that I have confirmation, thanks!
BTW, did you use the link in the description to buy the parts? Did you use the same parts shown in the video?
Another one here from Spain , fixed it in my Yeti. Because of your help I can enjoy driving with music again and saved around 1000 Euros..thank you so much !!! You are awesome.
Donde pillaste el táctil? Me pasa lo mismo y creo que solo hay que añadirle el táctil nuevo. No hay que sustituirlo no? Ya estoy a la desesperada. Saludos de Tenerife
2017 VW Jetta SE with touch screen issues, here. Thanks to your EXCELLENT video, I finished installing the part literally today, 2 hours ago! Thank you so very much!
Glad it helped!
Thank you so much from Australia..
Local VW dealer quoted me AUS $3919 ( $3519 for parts and $400 service fee) to replace it for my 6 years old Caddy. Touch screen stopped working a year ago.
I ended up spending AUS $20 plus 2 hours of my time using this video and another shorter video.
It is now working like a new one. Huge thanks!!!
Wow! Expensive!
Brilliant video, thank you. Replaced my screen and its working perfectly. I needed to buy a T7 and 8 torque bit for the fiddly little screw inside
Thank you! I fixed my VW Sharan head unit with this guide! Excellent instructions, nice and easy to follow, very comprehensive, and very clear.
Thank you for creating this great video. It is incredibly detailed. I disassembled my touchscreen and was able to repair it with the aliexpress replacement you recommend.
My car is a 2016 seat Alhambra.
I am very happy!
Thank you
Great to hear!
Instead of removing the old digitizer (which is hard work) just adding the new in front of it is genius! Thank You very much! Appreciate it!
Thanks mate - successfully repaired mine in 1 hour tonight. Appreciate your guidance, saved me a motza.
2017 Jetta SEL here, worked like a charm! The supplier in the link is out of stock but the product can be found around just double check the letters etc.
Thank you for posting this and helping outhers out!
what's the part number you used? trying to figure out the one that will work for my 2017 GLI
Thanks to you I saved some hundred €…clever idea to just add the new touchscreen without removing the old one…my personal hero of the week!
Thanks very much. Followed the instructions and had a full repair in about two hours. Delighted!
Thanks so much for your video. I have just replaced the touchscreen in my T6 California Ocean. So easy with your tutorial !
Incredibly detailed and easy to follow. Fixed my Skoda Yeti screen in 90 mins. Thank You.
Hi mate can you share the link of the touch where you did purchased. Thanks in advance.
Was it a screen with or without CD-drive?
Many thanks for the video, just fixed my wifes VW Scirocco with a £8.90p screen from Ali express, unbelievable 😊
Thank you for this. I had the video running on my laptop on the kitchen table as I repaired the radio in my Skoda Yeti. In so doing I saved about £350.
Thank you so much for taking the time to make such an informative and thorough tutorial. I just finished this project on our 2017 Tiguan Wolfsburg edition. Worked like a charm. Touch screen and CarPlay now work flawlessly.
I was happy it worked, I did not know what was going to happen...I just filmed what I did not really knowing anything about it at the time....just took a shot and got it
I have a 2017 Jetta with MIB2 infotainment. Is that the same as yours?
they all seem the same, all over the world
Thank you very much! Your calm video enabled me to do the repair without any hassle. Saved a lot of unnecessary money to be thrown at the repair shop 😉
Followed this exactly and now have a working unit for just £12. Excellent work. Thank you!
Glad it helped
Thank you, it worked fine for me! One thing the video in my opinion didn't explain enough was that you do not take out the old digitizer. Instead you just stick a new digitizer over the old one. I had to watch the video several times before figuring that out.
thanks, I will add that in the description
Very happy with the result! I wasn't sure about putting thre new screen straight over the old one as it made it a lot thinker and not able to click back into the surround. Without another option, I just went with it and in no time at all it was back in the car and working perfectly. Thanks for the vid.
I have a 2017 Jetta with MIB2 infotainment. Is that the same as yours?
You're a lifesaver!! Just fixed the one on my '17 GLI!
I fixed my Jetta following your video. Thank you very much for sharing this! ❤
Can u tell me where to buy it? Post a link.. I have a jetta too
I love this. You just saved me near $1,000. Thanks for making this.
I finally have a fully functioning radio again in my 2017 Tiguan!! Thank you so much for this incredible tutorial!
I have a 2017 Tiguan too. Did you use the same product that he linked in the description? Or did you order from somewhere else? If so, could you send me the link you used?
Thank you for this, I followed it and, like others, successfully replaced my touchscreen. Brilliant
Thank you for the guide! Very good detail, just sorted my head unit out 👍🏻
Thank you so much I replace The
Broken touchscreen with your detail guide!
I never make comments on RUclips videos. But this one is awesome. Shame on VW for asking for a lot of money for something that I managed to repair for 15€. Many thanks for the tutorial
The best video I found on that topic! Thank you very much!
Many thanks. Fixed mine today with ease due to the great video.
Thank you so much for this video.
I was quoted over £2500 to fix the problem, but your video and a £25 screen from Amazon did the job.
Thank you thank you thank you
You're welcome!
Could you comment the link for the Amazon product you used please? Most of these videos say eBay or AliExpress but I’d rather use Amazon if possible. Just don’t know which one.
Thank you for this video. I had the same problem in my 2017 vw tiguan but it’s fixed now
Worked like a charm! Seems complicated but it's not. Thanks for this guide!
I'm gonna need to do this to mine in the future. Excellent vid.
Absolutely brilliant video, saved me a small fortune.
Thank you so much for your video, it’s saved me literally.
I did the same and it worked perfectly.
I really appreciate it.
Thanks man
You are a life saver. 2017 transporter here. You potentially helped mi to fix 2 issues at once. I had dead zone (right top corner) and hyperactive one (left bottom). it started slowly (i could not use "back" function in certain menu levels for like a year if not more) Left bottom would act up occasionally and it potentially has been going on for months and i mistaken it for faulty IR proximity sensor (if you wave your hand over screen it opens menu at the bottom + locks certain functions). Switching "animation when hand near screen" stopped it so I thought it is IR sensor. Today after replacing screen i noticed that same menu pops up on touching screen - so maybe my hyperactive area was causing it all along.
BTW note to self: If new screen is similar quality to original one i would not use tape to glue it in place - potential trouble in few years..
Die you mean with hyperactive Mode, that the navi seems to enter Commands by itsself?
You’ve saved me so much money. I appreciate you 🙏
Thank you buddy!! 2016 Tiguan (Cdn), touch screen has not been working, intermittently, will dial people all by itself. Some media buttons won't work either. Ordered the part, radio numbers were off just a bit, but I figured "...I'll try it anyway...". Tore it apart, part numbers for rouch screens match, installed and holy )(*&*&%, it works like brand new!! The video was great, step by step, saved me $1000 (quoted by dealer). Thanks again from Nova Scotia, Canada.
Where did you get your part? I’m in NS too with a 16 Tiggy
@ , bought it from theebay listed above. Came plain, no glue strips but fit right on top on old screen.
I watched this video months ago because I was having the same issue and I ordered the replacement screen on Ebay at the time but never got around to fixing it. On Saturday I finally had a couple of hours available in the middle of the day so I went ahead and did the repair exactly as your video and I now have a working touchscreen again. My old one was down to the left third of the screen working. Only thing I regret is I disconnected the battery, to be safe, and now I have an airbag error that won't go away after reconnecting the battery. So now I have to figure out if I can clear that code with my cheap OBD dongle. Thanks again.
You may have forgot to connect the passenger airbag status indicator.
I did not disconnect mine, left it electrically connected but pulled the whole thing from the face panel and then forgot about it...wondering why there is an open slot. I left it that way and use the opening for a usb cable entrance
@@neuromanglers the thought crossed my mind but it is plugged in and it illuminates. I even sat in the passenger seat and the light goes out as it should.
Your guide also worked for me and my 2017 Seat Alhambra 7N. I'm really happy. Einfach wunderbar! ;-)
Just finished replacing my unit thanks to your video, appreciate you!
Fantastic!
I have used your method on my unit and it is working like new. Thank you very much for your video.
Great to hear!
Great info, thanks so much. My car now fixed!
I did it! took me almost 7 hours but I did it!!!! I bought the part even though eBay dude said it wasn't compatible with my model but it was and it works!!! so happy!! I feel like I have an extra $1,200 to spend now!! thanks!
I have a suspicion that this touch screen part is used in many different radios and maybe different brands of cars
I know how you feel....I was so happy to have found a solution....was thinking about selling the car because of the radio
Can you share the link of where you bought the part(s)? I have the same issue and looking to fix it
Thank you very much, I fixed mine with it! Let me suggest putting 2mm spacers under the metal frame to the 4 screw holes at 22:30. Without this the LCD screen will be under pressure and colored at the corners, that was my experience.
Thank you very much @neuromangler for saving our radio in our VW California 2016!
This dude is definitely an engineer. Fantastic! Informative, comprehensive 40-minute video. Could have been 4 minutes.
But genuinely thanks anyway
feel free to FFWD if you feel the need, the need for speed
Hi there. Is the shop on eBay still open? I can’t really find it using the link in your description. 😢 Thank you for the video.
Thank you. Just replaced by wife’s touch screen with your guidance!
I've been dealing with a broken touch screen for a year now with nothing worthwhile out there to learn how to do this. It took me maybe an hour and everything works.
Excelente video,muy bien hecho desde el principio al final,felicitaciones
Hi, thank a lot!!! You safe me money. Repair was easy thanks to the video and was completed within an hour. Thanks thanks thanks
Thank you so much man! Very thankful i found your video before i shelled out for a new radio
Yeah....I was about to buy a different car because of it ...so I gave it a shot and was able to fix it. I think it is a really common problem with all new cars
Thankyou thankyou thankyou for an excellent and detailed video thats so easy to follow. Just as relevant for our Australian VW's as well. Fixed my 2017 amarok today for the massive sum of $25.00 haha. Easy to do and quick.
Thanks for the feedback. It seems VW is consistent all around the globe in both successes and shortcomings. The touchscreen digitizer was such a severe issue that I was considering to just buy a new car...but the solution was so easy....this time.
@@neuromanglers Yes "this time" is a good comment haha Ive traveled all over oz in my amarok over soft beaches and simpson desert dunes to gnarly rocky climbs in the mountains of SA and is a very capable vehicle. But they are still so very VW and have odd quirks. The touchscreen would drive us mad. Cant thank you enough for this video mate, from the whole family!
Brilliant, thank you. Just replaced my touch screen with the help of your video
Excellent!
Very nice Video. Thank you so much! Completely helpful ! I'll try it the next days
Thanks so much! Just saved me a pile of cash. Absolute champion!!
Thanks so much for the video. I just fixed my screen.
great video
i will be removing mine this afternoon in the uk 🇬🇧
thank you
any clue to where to locate the part
Another 2k saved because of you! Can't thank you enough! Great video!
Crazy how much a radio costs these days
Hello, mine is having color overlapping and the screen becomes dark, however touch is still working, i am not sure if i need to order touch only or full TDO
If you can advise me will be appreciated
Thanks again for this video. I'm looking forward to jumping into this project, but the ebay store seems to be dead now. Any recommendation on where to look or what part number to order?
I just change mine thx to this tuto => Good Job ! it's working !!!
Glad it helped
Great job... Got my nav back. But unfortunately my CD player isn't recognized. Only the one ribbon cable, but it says no CD when I try to eject the CD that I left in there... I can't seem to find a release to get the CD out either. Any ideas?
Great vid worked for me except I coudnt get the cd clip baxk on and had three screws left over. But it works! 🎉
Bonjour, propriétaire d'un VW Caddy sur lequel l'écran tactile de la radio gps fonctionnait de manière aléatoire. VW demandait 1300 € pour le remplacer !!! J'ai commandé un écran pour 13€ sur AliExpress. J'ai suivi ton tuto point par point, et tout fonctionne parfaitement. Merci beaucoup !!!
Very good video , thanks very much ! 😊
Thankyou for this video, its helped me out a lot. 🖖
Danke für dieses tolle und sehr ausführliche Video. Ich kommentiere sonst nie etwas. Aber hier wurde sich viel Mühe gegeben und es hat unserer Urlaubskasse sehr gut getan. Vielen vielen Dank dafür.
Und wo genau hast du diesen digitizer jetzt gekauft? Der Link funktioniert ja nicht mehr. Grüße
I got the new part from Amazon Hopefully the Correct Part LOL This video is the most detailed on this cars haed unit THX MAn Can not wait The Woman will be thrilled and Im out of dog house! Joking
