How to Replace the Screen on a BMW 1 Series

Model: BMW Serie 1 MK 2, F20, F21 - Years 2011-2019
Part: Car stereo

In this video tutorial, you can see how to install the F20 Screen Android System radio for the BMW 1 Series by following a few simple steps. First, purchase a compatible radio for your BMW 1 Series, as shown in the video (you can easily buy it online if you want to save money). Once the product arrives, take it out of the box. You will notice that the box also contains the connectors and the radio antenna. Prepare the radio installation kit and a screwdriver. Start by disconnecting the battery cables (positive and negative) to avoid a short circuit. As shown in the video, disconnect the plastic ring located under the screen and unplug the electrical wires. Using a Torx key, remove the screws securing the remaining part under the screen. With the help of a screwdriver, remove the screws and pull the radio out of its slot, then disconnect the connectors. Connect the new wires to the radio and pass them through the designated space as shown in the video. At this point, connect the new wires to the new touchscreen. Once all the wires are connected, secure the screen with the appropriate screws. Reassemble all parts in reverse order. Test the correct operation.
