OBC replacement

Help,

I've got the TIS manual on cd, but it locks up everytime I ask for the instructions on how to remove and replace the OBC. Anyone care to give me the instructions on this? Thanks,

99 323I Convertible 5 spd w/18 button obc

If your attempting to swap an 11 button OBC for an 18 button unit, here is the best write up I've seen on the conversion, lots of luck though.

OBC Conversion

If your just attempting to swap the same type of OBC, this should get you started.

Is your unit broken? Or are just the light bulbs burned out (common mistake). The unit can be removed by inserting a credit card inbetween the top of the unit and the dash - then pulling on the unit. It should slide out. I think I have a picture of this in the 101 Book.

Bulbs are cheap and easy to replace - we sell them here on the sight in the catalog...
