Command System Display is offline

OK bad stuff happened on the way to work today - My command system is offline, Display is all blank except for two words - "No Signal" The voice control is not working, no navigation, No radio stations. The posted road speed does not display in the heads up, or any selections for phone or radio.

I have a service appointment tomorrow.

WHAT THE HECK JUST HAPPENED!!

It could be a number of issues. Easiest thing to do is have a copy of same diagnostic software dealership does (ie ISTA+).

If you put a Mercedes system in a BMW I can see a problem there.

LOL - That Mercedes system is crude compared to what we have in our BMWs.

I hate driving my wife's E350.

You mean it's still dead? I had the "No Signal" error exactly once so far and "rebooting" worked and haven't experienced a problem since.

iDrive head unit replaced - I took my X5 in to the dealer on Thursday morning for the following symptoms:
No Navigation,
No Audio
No voice control
No anything controlled by the iDrive would work.

The dealer kept the vehicle overnight and replaced the iDrive head unit.
I am so happy that I am still under warranty.

Wow. I don't recall anyone needing full replacement so far. Glad to hear they got you back on the road quickly. I'm surprised they had the unit in stock! Perhaps that doesn't bode well that they did, i.e. have seen more failures so are keeping units on-hand?
