2001 X5 Stereo Question
I have a question on the Stereo of the 2001 X5. I'm planning to replace the unit with an aftermarket Pioneer Double din DVD unit. I was planning to extend the MID cable to hide the unit in the glove so that i would still have the odometer working,
The CD player is not working and I was planning to remove it altogether. I noticed the the radio doesn't work without the CD player as the antenna, power and another cable connect to it. Therefore i assume that MID is basically the brains and the display. My question is, can i remove the CD player, and probably the amp at the back and not have any issues in the future? I was told that when i need to have the ECU checked for errors, the original radio has to be in place. I need to know if this is true or it is just the MID that is being read by the Diagnostics?
