BMW Bavaria C Professional RDS

    Hi all


    The owner of CSI CC00032 in Norway needs a replacement BMW Bavaria C Professional RDS system
    He is looking for a direct replacement if anyone has a frontunit for sale , but it's not sure all his problems is just the front unit so if anyone has the whole system then He will be interested.


    Second question is: is it possible to use another head unit as is , since this has a separate radio modul?

    If anyone has someting for sale , please send a PM.

    The BMW Bavaria C Professional RDS is quite unique and no other head unit is compatible with it. If you don't know which part is broken, it's best to get the complete system. The amplifier however is not part of the BMW Bavaria C Professional RDS system and is shared with other BMW head units. If you need a new amplifier pay attention there were two different, incompatible, models during E31 production. Pictured is the early 4-channel amplifier (in September 1993 the 4-channel amplifier was replaced with a 10-channel amplifier). The 4-channel amplifier has two 12-pin connectors while the 10-channel amplifier has a 12-pin and a 26-pin connector.

    Thanks Revtor for the update
    As this car has Prod. date 1992-09-21 it must be a 4 channel amplifier then


    will have to search Ebay once in a while if there are non to be found here :)

    Also, from hearsay, the display & receiving units of the Professional C resp. the Professional C RDS are not interchangeable! You will need a "matching pair".
    Expect to cough up a fair amount of money for a working combo - last I saw going well above 300 EUR.


    Good luck hunting...

    Then I guess you have the 10 channel amp. not sure ut's a big problem to use , but would need a diagram on the connectors to see.
    Guess the connector with 26 pins insted of 10 is due to more speaker outputs
    And that you still can use the 10 channel but only use 4 outputs.
    Someone having these diagrams?

    Hmm, let me add I have both. The one without the RDS print on the front (I hat to replace the original RDS unit) does work fine with the original receiver unit. But instead of what it says (no RDS) it does has the RDS function. I don't know why this is. I have the orginal RDS in spare. But it does not take the code anymore. This is a software-error Becker says. Maybe needs repair, maybe will work in the future. I think I keep it...
