C6 2007 - MMI dead

[Crasher]

It is shown as being behind the glovebox and will have one of these part numbers

4F0910729_/_X
4F0910729Q/QX
4F0910730D/DX
4F0910730B
4F0910731_/_X
4F091073F/FX
4F0910731D/DX

4F0910731J/JX
4F0910731R/RX
4F0910732A/AX
4F0910732D

All replaced by 4F0 910 732 HX

Fantastic, got it - thank you. It was more tucked away than I expected.

I know that this is a common issue. Do people tend to replace them with 4F0 910 732 HX?

I’ve looked online and direct replacements seem to be plentiful and cheap. I understand that I meed to get the same SW prefix and complications with component protection.

I can’t seem to find anyone who sells refurbished/warrantied items, so I’m guessing it might be a bit of a lottery now to replace it.

[milbo1990]

Ok, so I’ve bought VCDS and a ross-tech cable.

Plugging it in and doing a scan of the optical bus diagnostics, I get faults for:

19-CAN gateway
07-Control head
0E-Media Player
77-Telephone
47-Sound System
56-Radio
37-Navigation

When I go into each of the controllers to retrieve the fault code, I just get an error message saying ‘no response from controller’

Any ideas?

[Crasher]

Could you do a full scan and post it?

[milbo1990]

Thanks for your ongoing help Crasher, I really appreciate it.

I've bought VCDS and a ross-tech cable on a netbook which won't connect to the internet - no idea why! So, I'm typing it out

I've just done a summary - but none of the codes appeared to be recent and I don't have any MIL's on currently either. Do let me know if you want any of the freeze frame or part number info for any of the codes or modules.

Thanks again!

Please don't cut the VIN out of the scan, it is useful and not subject to GDPR, remove the reg if you wish as that is personal data. What is the VIN. Do a full clear and run the car for a few days and do another full scan and post it in full.

Sorry - I've not intentionally cut anything out, I can't copy and paste the scan, so I've typed out the elements which I thought were useful. If there's anything particularly helpful missing, then please let me know.

I'll do another scan in a few days and post again.

The VIN is WAUZZZ4F58N042353

Thanks

[Crasher]

The way I do it is to install a generic text only virtual printer and then print the report and click print as text but you can also use the save function and open the file in Word. I realised I already had the VIN, too many irons in the fire.

[milbo1990]

Ok, so I reset my codes and I’ve driven the car around for 4 days since. All of the codes have now cleared except for two:

005491 - Left Engine Mount Solenoid Valve (N144) P1573 - 001 - Open Circuit

00384 - Optical Databus 011 - Open Circuit

I am still getting “Cannot be reached” for:
07-Control Head
0E-Media Player
37-Navigation
47-Sound System
56-Radio
77-Telephone

The OBD scan for that module just returns ‘Error’ for electrical and optical for all of the modules.

[Crasher]

All those not reached are on the infotainment bus and the optical bus is shown as being open, I can't look at the workshop info at the moment as my copy died and I am waiting for a new one. The engine mount is easy.
