Where's me 16:9 Display Gone?
Restarted car to continue journey and radio audio etc works but have lost picture on screen, no glow nothing as if dead. same on TV/Setup/SatNav?Audio Displays its as if LCD rapped up!
On getting back home I have switched screen back to old 4:3 unit and thats all working fine. Don't like the sound of this. Any Ideas anybody? Keith? |

No glow at all? not even the white back light around the screen edges?
If not do the buttons still work? if they do I think the hi voltage supply to the backlight may have failed or possibly the lamp itself but that is less common. You may need to find a specialist repairer as I have read thay can be fixed |

Thanks for advice Keith, no glow at all just like a Laptop LCD Backlight going, all buttons work if you know which ones to push, but have now gone back to the 4:3 so will see if I can find a repairer or spares source.

In that case go onto the Yahoo BMW Nav forum and do a search the symptoms have been discussed there

Thanks again for Help & Advice Keith, never thought of the BM site, had a look on X5World though. Will let you know when solved & repaired, I so miss my 16:9 screen & can't really afford another one at the moment.
