Greetings, Abdel

hello I would like to apologize for an info event then you have found this article code USB

 

can someone give an idea how to retrofit CIC controller as it doesn't look plug and play on my 2006 with CCC. old controller has two connectors one is wide for controller and small 4 pin for button. new CIC controller has 4 pin connector only some one said it is plug and play how is that possible? see picture attached

 

found an answer myself. remove wires 1 2 4 5 from wide connector and stick them into small 4 pin (button) connector in order 1 2 3 4 seal the rest plug new CIC controller and you are done

 

hello I would like to purchase the cic for a e60 lci but they tell me that if I mount the buttons do not light up the cic. and true or is there a solution for this problena

 

There is a solution. One wire from the CIC has to be connected to another 12V source that is switched with the lights. Most commonly people use the buttons on the lock button/hazard button switch between the air vents in the middle of the das.

 

and you can not move the pin that first lit up the keys of the CCC?

 

I would assume the lights must be switched on differently or someone would have done that already

I do not have an LCI model to test on though, so I'm not all that familiar with it. I just remember seeing people do the fix in other CIC retrofit threads (and this one too I think)

 

I understand that's what year responded bimmerretrofit


Good day Francesco,

I apologize but we cannot email any instructions or technic description before you become our customer and place an order.
As for the light pelase do not worry. We have sold over a thousand CIC kits for E6x series and I can ensure you that lights fix can be done by you. It is our unique method which our engineers developed for all E6x series use.

Regarding the LCI climate panel - if you sure that your vehicle already have LCI panel then you do not need to worry and you will not need to change panel.
Only if your vehicle comes with pre-LCI panel then you need to change it if you want to have all functions working with iDrive.

Thank you,

Kate Ivanova
