335xi - Radio dead

thome22 · 03-28-2010, 07:18 AM

I have 2009 335xi sedan. No iDrive. Got in this AM, radio unit totally dead. Will not power up. Tried restarting car. No help. All other systems appear functional. Car starts fine. Battery power seems good. Is this fuse?? Should I try to replace fuses? Appears there are 3.

Any thoughts?? Anyone with similar?? Not alot of posts when I search.

Let dealer handle it??

Just had fuel pump replaced last month. Sigh.....................

Hello??? Anybody there??

The car is under warranty. Bring it to the dealer instead of trying to fix it yourself. Don't give the dealer an excuse for them not to honor the warranty.

There's a TSB on this, I believe. But if it's back now don't worry about it.

Similar thing happened to me too.
I had power, but no sound.... nothing. Radio, Satelite, CD, no even the PDC.
The next day all was fine.
