The audio system on a late model BMW is fiber optic and it’s like a big string of old fashioned Christmas lights — if one bulb goes out, the whole strand goes out. That is typically what happens on the E90 and typically it is the satellite module that is bad. But not in my case! So in this video I will show you how to accurately diagnose the problem and fix it.

I’ve got a satellite module on my bmw e92, does all the leads you unplugged have to be showing red light to show it’s fine? As I pulled out the optic lead on my sat module and seen no light
Radio on my E93 stopped working, heard this weird noise like if it shorted out and now I have no sound. Everything is working, bluetooth, navi, radio but no sound. There's this weird popping, cracking noise coming from the speakers, but no sound. Anyone know where the satellite module located in a E93?
I have no sound from the radio but I also have no symbol on the dash, no modules in the trunk either. The wiring is there but it's wrapped up from the factory.
just replaced the mulf module but it wont flash red on the cable above the gas/clutch pedals. idk what to do or what is wrong. have tried to find a video on it but cant find anything…. anyone knows the problem? the mulf module is brand new
Hey! Loved your video! If the optic drive is blinking, does that mean for sure the amp is fine? Or could the amp still possibly be busted?
I checked all 4 spots and everyone of them had the red light but still no sound 🙁
Hard reset on idrive and if that doesn't work … Disconnect battery for 5 minutes and connect it back. It worked for me.
What if my last connector doesn’t have a red little light?
Thank you so much, my radio was not working and kept making a heartbeat sound. Come to find out there was 2 wires the mechanic left unplugged, which he couldn’t figure out. Searched YouTube and came across your video. Saved my e90 worries lol
I got a problem with my 2007 bmw 328i when I check the amp module it’s not blinking a red light what does that mean ?
so i got one of of someone and they put a new amp in so where do i go after that ?
Can you by pass the TCU also?
Bro this the best video for this
After watching 10 videos on the no audio subject, you were the only one who actually understood the whole system. I took down the trim piece above the pedals and sure enough, the mechanic left mine unplugged. I saw that red light and knew I was good to go! Thanks for saving me the money I was about to spend.

My e64 radio and that gong gong when safety belt is not on,they play stop, play stop,,,,,what might be the problem ?,,,,,,,,,,nonetheless thanks about the video,,,,,,,,,South Africa
good video, my optic light, traces back to the termination point, all units are working yet still have no sound, there was slight water damage on the logic 7 but the optic light still works thoughputting, could the logic 7 maybe still be wrecked even though its outputting light?
Hi and thanks for the video I have exactly exactly same set up as your car I tried I looked underneath the steering wheel I pulled the plug and it was connected I unplug and turn the car on there’s no light I plug it back on back push it back and into place but nothing changed still no sound. Help please
It never goes that easy for me. I usually get the every component is bad across the board.
hi 50skid, i saw you on Beach Blvd going north before the 91 freeway in your 330i around 1:45pm yesterday!
That connector under the dash is the MOST gateway, it is used for programming the car with the ICOM cable module
Doesn't that BMW SOS dash icon look like a sword or what? I know it's a phone handset crossed out in reality, but that thing looks like a sword or dagger 😀
