Both photos are completely black for me.

Ok so you have a Connected Analogue Mono Radio, so if CarPlay or AA is not already available when plugged into the USB port and pressing the button as show, then it's not available. Your specifications state 'Without Mirror Link', so without this, it's unlikely you will get it. You may need the colour RCC to get this or the NAC system.

I can't answer that for sure - you really need to get confirmation from the dealer first of all before going to the trouble. You won't be able to code it for your vehicle options I suspect either as it's a 'locked' module. A dealer won't do this as it's not OEM equipment most likely. Once you have it confirmed that a Colour RCC unit will work, you may have to look elsewhere for 'unconventional' access to the unit.

You never answered my last post - I did offer this later firmware to you, but you never replied....

Given those versions, it's a very old RCC Wave 2 system, probably this one:

Code: Select all

{
  "updateType": "rcc-firmware",
  "updateVersion": "0_12F_15.7A133.5",
  "updateProvider": "BOSCH_CAR_MULTIMEDIA",
  "updateId": "005315191477041014",
  "updateDate": "2016/10/21 11:37:44",
  "updateStatus": {
    "code": "DEL",
    "label": "Supprime du serveur"
  }
}
In the previous menu screen, you should see a "System version: vvvx", where "vvv" is the version number (probably 12F), and "x" a letter from A to D, the hardware capabilities/revision. Only the C and D versions support Apple CarPlay and Google Android Auto (what PSA/Stellantis calls MirrorScreen):
RCCOnly AM/FMAlso DAB
No MirrorScreenAB
With MirrorScreenCD
