Today we are going to be removing a CUE system from a 2014 Cadillac XTS, sending it out for repair and reinstalling it. This R&I procedure is the same for any XTS 2013-2017. These systems are a common failure, so a used part is only a short-term solution at best and dealers want an arm and a leg for a replacement so I have found the most economical and lasting solution to be sending them out to be rebuilt.

Nice work, but this is why I still drive a 71 nova. It's a car and it drives, what else do I need it to do, I don't need my but warmed, or where I'm at on a map, the temp outside, my mirror deiced, I can open my own glove box, slide the seat, check my tire pressure, roll the window down, adjust the mirror, lock the door, open the trunk, look in the mirror, put my seat belt on, turn my head lights on/off, and keep track of when to change my oil, and the radio still works lol. Cars today have way too much plastic and gadgets. $1900.00 new in 1971 and if you use an inflation calculator that would be $13,189.66 in today's money, still a deal.
Transformers… Robot H.M.I.
It's like every model year they make it more difficult & time consuming to work on.
Shame those guys dont have stores in australia cause i could upgrade my unit to a color screen with reverse camera
This is shittyllac
All I got from this is "Give Up" Fix
here in new york I use united radios very good at what they do and cheap they do all the same repairs as up fix
I find the ingenuity and designs of all the tabs and slots and Velcro® and just popping and slapping the parts into the position in which a different engineer-slash-designer created – is amazing. Kinda like a giant 3-dimensional jigsaw puzzle married a Rubik's Cube and their offspring became a Cadillac.
Is every new car just slap-pop-jam it together?
I love the sound of ripping Velcro® in the morning.
Interesting. I've got a 2014 XTS Vsport Platinum. Flawless car. And so far no issues with the CUE screen. Fingers crossed I guess with the screen!
YouTube has the like button placed way too close to the dislike button and I inadvertently touched the dislike button but corrected it. Sorry about that.
What you have done by the time line 4:54 I would have had my Ram Laramie radio out with on yank of the center panel. But I've made it to 140,000 and am still going strong
My mom had an srx with cue gen 1, and then xt5s with gen 2 and 3/ current…
Honestly they all have kinda sucked, but at least this last one has a volume knob…
I'll probably never do that repair, but it was very interesting to see. Thanks!
continue to learn a lot from you. Your knowledge of disassembly is amazing.
Remember when you could pull a radio in about 10 minutes?
So sad that Mr Spotty didn’t make a appearance… Or is he out riding with the pizza girl!
For ev'ry body that wants to know, UpFix has their own channel on YouTube….
we want to c you working on trucks me sad
3:28 whoa, you almost beaned yourself in the noodle lol…..I shouldn't talk, I punched myself in the nose yesterday lol….(I was pulling up the blanket and my 17 lbs cat jumped off suddenly lol)
This highlights something I've been thinking since all these infotainment screens first started appearing: why not simply make the dash accept an android or apple tablet? Specially those vehicles whose designers can't even be bothered to integrate the touch screen into the dashboard, they just bolt it on to an existing one……
Watch the video and got excited about upfix because I need my instrument cluster repaired,
Out of the thousands of cars listed that they repair..mine is the one that's missing.
Sadness!
