Oem Hiline upgrade to BMW widescreen
Hoping somebody can answer a query I've got.
I'm in the process of replacing the four major units of the hiline. Fitted a BM24 radio all well - gives a lot more control via the 4:3 bordmonitor to select the TP station you receive, plus could turn on/off, via the TP and RDS buttons the traffic and station display. Just connected the 16:9 bord monitor I've bought, no TP or RDS button - guess it's the INFO button that would be used but pressing it doesn't do anything. Therefore cannot turn off the TP announcements, disable/enable the RDS function or select the station that the traffic announcements is received from. Am I doing something wrong? I'm guessing I've been sold a pup but would love confirmation. Regards |

No you haven't been sold a pup
The satnav software needs downgrading and then upgrading and all the buttons will work correctly. Its a common problem for people who have changed screen. |

After reading the linked thread would mention that the select button on the widescreen monitor is working as it should - it's just the INFO button that's doing nothing - would still using the MGR cd sat nav computer have a baring on the matter, not upgraded to DVD mk 4 yet. Regards |

MGR units are mostly locked down so unlikely you will be able upgrade the software to find out. |

Apologies for thread resurrection, but I'm recycling.
I have just installed a widescreen monitor in my ZT and find I have this problem with not being able to select traffic announcement etc. I have a Mk4 DVD drive, which I think has v28 software on it plus a MG splash screen. Reading through the links in this post, is it still the case of needing to revert to an older version of software and then reinstall the latest version? If I get a v32 disc and install this, will it affect the splash screen that I have? |
