Level 7 Boss Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 I'm finally installing my double din tonight. Aside from following this guide, can anyone offer any advice? It's a Pioneer avh 2600bt. www.350z-uk.com/topic/56249-just-installed-jvc-hu-wiring-pics-to-help-others/ Cheers Quote
Level 7 Boss Posted June 18, 2014 Author Posted June 18, 2014 Got the dash out Ok but the unit didn't power up. Think I need to splice the connections. Going to pay someone to do it instead now. Quote
richard.hezlett Posted June 18, 2014 Posted June 18, 2014 I had same problem. Did you earth your new head unit to a bit of metal in the dash? Quote
Level 7 Boss Posted June 21, 2014 Author Posted June 21, 2014 Didn't go great. Paid someone to install. He allegedly installed the steering wheel control, yet it doesn't work. Further to that, I have the dreaded reduced sound defect. Happy with the units functionality, and it does modernise the dash. But I'm going to have to pay even more money to correct this now. Also, can't remember what cable to buy for my note 2 to get app radio working. Over to google. Quote
richard.hezlett Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 Check Busters thread for mod to cure reduced sound. Fairly straight forward to do. I bought my cables from incartec. There website is very easy to use. Good luck. Quote
Level 7 Boss Posted June 21, 2014 Author Posted June 21, 2014 I have all the cables from incartec. I'm a bit loathed to Do the buster mod, don't want to fry the amp or speakers lol Quote
Briggsybriggs1 Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 You need to connect the blue wire from your head unit, that turns on the Bose amp or jack all will work . The buster mod is easy or you could go to Maplin and get a part that will work the same . Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
Briggsybriggs1 Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 I have all the cables from incartec. I'm a bit loathed to Do the buster mod, don't want to fry the amp or speakers lol iv had no problems with my buster mod :-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
richard.hezlett Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 Busters mod very straight forward. Lots of people on the forum including myself have done it with no problems. Plenty of help here if you need it. Quote
Level 7 Boss Posted June 22, 2014 Author Posted June 22, 2014 So what do you guys think the issue could be with the steering wheel controls? Quote
Briggsybriggs1 Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 So what do you guys think the issue could be with the steering wheel controls? I never fit one on my head unit. You could always leave it out and fit it later on :-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
Level 7 Boss Posted June 22, 2014 Author Posted June 22, 2014 I'm already missing the steering wheel controls lol Quote
buster Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 So what do you guys think the issue could be with the steering wheel controls? wired incorrectly Quote
Level 7 Boss Posted June 26, 2014 Author Posted June 26, 2014 Usb mass storage doesn't work. Steering wheel controls and apps don't work. I'm going to have to pay someone again to sort this mess. Quote
6705russell Posted June 28, 2014 Posted June 28, 2014 I have just finished fitting this unit to my Z, works a treat but didn't bother with steering wheel controls... Quote
un1eash Posted June 30, 2014 Posted June 30, 2014 Steering wheel controls is just 3 wires and it doesnt even matter if you get 2 of them the wrong way round. Quote
