Bolero software version

Featured Replies

Got a fault with my 2013 version bolero head unit. Screen changes radio channel by itself and also when cold doesn't respond to touch sometimes.  Before I condem the whole unit I need to check if this is the current software version and if not can someone point me in right direction to get it. Thanks

Mines always done that on a 2016 plate. I put it down to moisture as it's fine when the car gets warmer. Throws a bit of a wobler for a few minutes then settles. 

It's usually the screen at fault rather than the entire system and that software version in the image is that of the control module in the glovebox. 

 

The screens are readily available for little money these days and they benefit from being plug and play. You'll have to buy the release tools though.

Ive got tools to remove head unit. When you say screen is faulty you mean the whole head unit has had it or the screen is removable from this?  And a replacement  2nd hand head unit is plug and play and not coded to the car?. Where do I look for the software version I am currently running?

Many thanks so far for your advice

The screen is a totally separate item, and it's usually just this that goes faulty so the head unit (in the glovebox) doesn't need replacing.The screen doesn't need any coding when replaced.

The screen part number should be 5E0919605B. It acts as a slave unit to the main controller in the glove box. What do you see when you press "Versions"? Is there any mention of "ABT"?

Does it show you anything if you click on either of those options?

i think the top photo was what you see if you select any of those tabs in that picture. Not with car now as gone work. So assuming its not the latest version then how do i get hold of a copy to update the unit. Must be said that it does only seem to play up mostly when the cars screen is cold and been standing overnight as it seems to sort itself out once i done a few miles with the heater on.
