  • Check If the original CD/headunit is turned on.
  • Check If the LVDS cable is plugged into android screen correctly.
  • Check If your car has optic fiber(Ignore if no optic fiber), need to relocate it to android harness.

  • Check if "CAN Protocol" selection correctly(according to your car's IDrive system such as CCC,CIC,NBT; if your car without IDrive system then select "CIC"), Routes: Setting ->Factory (code"2018 or 1314")->"CAN Protocol"(Note: After setting up the CAN protocol, wait for about 30 seconds, then turn off the device power. This means power off the car, locking the doors to completely cut off power, waiting for about 1 minute, then opening the door and power on car again to restart the CAN system.)

Note: For car with EVO system

If the OEM System theme is ID6, choose:"ID6_X1 or ID6_5S";
