I've just replaced the original PCM1 unit with a nice shiny Carplay double din.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I've just replaced the original PCM1 unit with a nice shiny Carplay double din. Obviously that now means I have no access to the OBC (not that it's terribly important, but it would be nice to have!). If I get a 4-stalk indicator assembly (see my other thread about my existing broken assembly!), is there a way of displaying the OBC information on the dashboard? 1998 C2
