2011 e class convertible... aps 50

[Heyboss]

‘Command online’ are the specialists for this stuff, you’re going to have to spend some time on Google...
Others will know more than me...
Maybe give it some time, someone will be along hopefully...

Thankyou I appreciate your time and help

 

[Frosty149]

You’re welcome.
To be honest, the car doesn’t drive any better with it, it’s a toy that’s nice to have...

 

[John Laidlaw]

Post up your vin number and we’ll see what it says.

My Audio 50 APS does play DVD movies. So I guess there's a problem with yours.
Try playing a CD

 

[Heyboss]

CD works fine m8 ...

 

[CowleyStJames]

Have you ever updated nav as the disks are DVD?

 

[Heyboss]

No m8 .... didn' know you had too

 

[CowleyStJames]

Yes, update disks come out every year.

 

[Heyboss]

How do I get one ... what am I looking for ....

 

[Sigoodall]

Sorry don't have this version but check You Tube for hidden command menu - perhaps this might give some clues.

 

[Heyboss]

Ok thank you... much appreciated

 

[CowleyStJames]

I've got a couple of update disk sets hanging around somewhere.
Are you sure yours is an APS 50?
When you bought the car did it come with a audio handbook?

 

[Heyboss]

Yes m8 this is mine

 

[CowleyStJames]

I'll look around later today and see what nav disks I've got.
They come as set of four DVDs.
Did you not have any with the car?
On the APS50, it can only hold one region at a time, so if you want to travel across Europe you need to load a different disk.
This is one of the major drawbacks against the Comand system which can hold all regions

 

[Heyboss]

Yes mine came with this all 4 are in there

 

[CowleyStJames]

That's it they're DVD disks. Wow, that's old though

 

[Heyboss]

So what do I have to do make my DVD work lol

 

[CowleyStJames]

Put one of the DVD nav disks in and see if it loads

 

[Heyboss]

Nothing happens

 

[CowleyStJames]

That's unfortunate, the DVD drive has a CD laser diode for reading cd music disks and a DVD laser diode . It could be that the latter is malfunctioning.
Unfortunate a new head unit is in order
