How to unlock Head Unit. - tom1 - 05-02-2023

I have a question about HU on my BMW.  My BMW is series 4 2017.  After connecting Bimmercode with the car, I can't enter the Head Unit, the rest works without a problem. I will note that last year I had the TCU box replaced by the BMW service. Please give me some advice.

Probably hasn't been coded properly or you have android box installed

But the problem is only with the entrance to HU. I have access to the rest and made settings, e.g. turn off start-stop, set welcome lights, etc., but I can't enter HU. The TCU box was installed in the official BMW service.

Use a different coding software, bimmercode is a bit funny with the hu

whatdo you recommend?

I'm having the same issue after having carplay added and map update?

TIA

BimmerCode won't be able to read the headunit if it has been patched.

Use any other app like BU and you can read the headunit fine.
