Hi
I have a E39 BMW 530i . The production date is 6 July 2001. I am not able to access the service mode of the radio at all. THis is a wide screen 16:9 display.
Following are the instructions that I tried to follow:
Turn the radio on - Yes I did that
Straight away, press the 'INFO' button - I Did that
Select RDS or PTY (displayed option depends on market). - I Do not get this option, I only see FM or No station.
Press and hold the 'On-Board Monitor rotary control knob for at least 8 seconds. - Nothing happens
Scroll through functions using the "< >" buttons.
Change settings using the 1...6 buttons.
Turn the radio off to exit the service mode and store the settings.
Could anyone tell me if it is possible to convert this or do I need to buy a band expander?
Any help or guidence is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Amit
