Hi , I’ve got a touch screen head unit and I bought a second hand one which has Apple car play , both are made by dallchi and seem to be standard in these vehicles
Yet the unit I bought doesn’t work , absolutely nothing so completely dead and the mileage is flashing on the dash
Any ideas please ?

The VP2 unit is manufactured by Continental. At the very least you need to run a proxi alignment with MultiEcuScan. There may be other features that need to be reconfigured if a proxi alignment alone doesn't work, either by directly changing bytes in the config file which MES can do, or removing/replacing features in the configuration list which AlfaOBD is more adept at doing directly.

The mileage flashes because the vehicle is seeing an unknown/incorrect network node that conflicts with the config information in the Body Control Module. A proxi alignment scans and identifies all modules on the network, writes the changes to the BCM and then distributes copies of the config file to slave nodes on the network
 
Thanks very much for your swift reply
I will see if I can find someone to carry out this work
Thanks again
