Fluke Posted May 6, 2013 Posted May 6, 2013 I am in the middle of installing my Appradio 2. I have the correct steering harness etc.. as shown in the guide, but I am only getting sound out of the front speakers and the sub. I can switch the leads round and get sound from the rear speakers and sub, but not all 4 speakers and the sub. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong? BTW - I have left all the Bose stuff in the car, it's just the head unit I am swapping. Quote
spursmaddave Posted May 6, 2013 Posted May 6, 2013 How many RCAs does the App radio 2 have? You need front L&R rear L&R and a sub output ideally. Quote
spursmaddave Posted May 6, 2013 Posted May 6, 2013 And a seperate sub out? Maybe look at the settings on the actual unit, it might be set for just front & sub not front/rear& sub Quote
Fluke Posted May 6, 2013 Author Posted May 6, 2013 The ICT leads have 4 RCA plugs. A red, white, black and yellow. On the back of my new HU there are only 2 red and 2 white. Which are (according to the HU wiring diagram) 'Front/subwoofer output RCA connectors. I will double check the manual. Quote
spursmaddave Posted May 6, 2013 Posted May 6, 2013 Try the red/white and yellow/black rcas into the4 outputs, if you get all 4 speakers but no sub then you just need to splice the sub in Quote
Beavis Posted May 6, 2013 Posted May 6, 2013 Thanks. All working now. So what was the answer to your problems? Quote
spursmaddave Posted May 6, 2013 Posted May 6, 2013 Good stuff Take a minute to say what was wrong in case someone else has the same problem Quote
Fluke Posted May 6, 2013 Author Posted May 6, 2013 As you correctly guessed, the Appradio needed setting up correctly. Quote
spursmaddave Posted May 6, 2013 Posted May 6, 2013 As you correctly guessed, the Appradio needed setting up correctly. It is a burden being right all the time, but I'm taking it a day at a time Glad you got it sorred, all you need now are some decent speakers, a decent sub, some decent amp..... Quote
