nickchin1308 0 Report post Posted January 15, 2011 Hey guys, I got the 4:3 TV setup in the E39 and I know this is may be a bad idea to some however I would like to know how can I get my TV to work whilst moving? Do I need a separate interface to plug in (?) or is it just a simple DIY job? Cheers Nick Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cheers Nick Depending on the age of the car, it is either a button press to enable tv in motion, or you have to do it with programming. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its a 02/98 model. Hotwire has informed me that pre 09/98 models are programmable via buttons. I am still trying to look for that combination of buttons right now through Google however not much luck atm Edited January 15, 2011 by molehole1308 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RustyItalian 11 Report post Posted January 21, 2011 Be interested if it works, didn't work on my Jap 528i built 11/99 which has 4:3 TV without nav. Great spec in these cars, pity it costs hundreds on the Jap ones just to get bloody radio reception Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Great spec in these cars, pity it costs hundreds on the Jap ones just to get bloody radio reception It's cheaper than a full retrofit on an NZ new car Yours should be able to be done with NavCoder, hotwire/jochen can probably confirm.

hybrid 1043 Report post Posted January 22, 2011 OBDII cable or Resler interface from german to your cars IBUS (internal BUS) It can recode your LCM, NAV, TV and other functions. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
