  1. I have a cable that connects to my iphone's headphone jack, on the opposite end of the cable it has 2 red and white RCA ends that I've connected to the "Audio Input" ports behind my Z1. I get nothing when I switch to AUX input on the Z1's interface. Am I missing something?
  2. how well does Sirius Backseat work? Are they planning to add more channels like MTV, etc? Nice truck, do not understand 2 pioneer head units but what the hey, pretty nifty.
  3. I am going to see if it is heat related, definitely could be because it worked at night the other day.
  4. so I had the dash off, and I fondled the cabling behind the z1, and every component behind my dash. Somehow it cleared up, wonder if I moved something that was causing interference away from a certain cable? Any ideas guys, I know the problem will be back so I have to wait or jiggle the cabling until it unfixes itself. I want to get this figured out before I seal up my newly fiberglassed dash
  5. what do you mean the OEM harness. There is a floating black wire in the F150's factory installed harness, or do you meant the Metra harness made for our F150.
  6. lol @ you throwing your computer. Reply to this thread or shoot me an email and I'll gladly make you and I both one. Just need the reminder for when I get home so shoot me that email!
  7. I bought a high quality CCD Camera. Sometimes the picture is very distorted, it's either perfect or severely distorted. The camera is awesome, it's a CCD with amazing night vision. I routed the RCA video cable along the frame, and up into the cab. Could the bluetooth module be causing interference? What about the fact that the frame is "ground". Someone told me to try a better shielded cable, like a twisted pair RCA from Monster. The picture when not working is very dark, the colors are very murky and the screen is wavy, and noisy. But you can make out some things, so the camera is working
  8. would not work too well considering we have no other options of input besides RCA. I don't imagine you can read much via RCA. Here at work our huge projector projects a picture that renders text illegible when using RCA or Svideo.
  9. How difficult would it be to allow it to download songs or videos to the HDD from an ipod, MP3 CD, or even DVD. I'm real bummed I have this expensive head unit that has the capability to stream movies off the hard drive, and I cannot do it.
  10. couple questions (looked on the first page, nobody asked). What are the benefits of the Z3 over Z1? Have they implemented Sirius Traffic yet? Is the Ipod add-on quicker? Are the graphic interfaces any different/quicker? Any new nav voices? Thanks in advance, I hate when people ask questions that have already been answered so I apologize if I did.
  11. where the f does it give you that option. Tell me how to find it on the Z1 if that's the unit you speak of.
  12. The z1 is telling me it's going to take 2 hours to get to a place that is 1hr away. It is usually off pretty bad, I've adjusted the regional settings to bump the speed limits but what speed limits work for most of you? I usually drive around 60mph and my readings are way off, especially in town readings.
  13. I can get the GEX10 for free, however in this pic you can see one wire is damaged. Is this wire needed for the Avic Z1? I believe some wires are obsolete as this unit is compatible with many systems and I'm hoping this is one of the wires.
  14. I'm interested too, I've got the sirius module on it's way. I wish I would have read this before :[
  15. Wow, how long does it take to fix and send back? That's a hefty price :[
  16. It flips out fine, it does not retract, it gets stuck about half way into the cycle. I can help it up, but how ghetto and hard to sell is that going to be. Is there anyway to fix the track system. I can see the white track that is supposed to be connected to the metal slide is retracting on it's own, not bringing the screen in with it. Can anyone help, if I send this to pioneer what are they possibly going to charge me? The one time I let someone move my truck I come back to my truck like this, I'm so upset. http://www.nomoreroominhell.com/Sandizzle/Truck/Mods/monitors.jpg
  17. how big are noise filters? I'm assuming a very small resistor of some kind. I have the same issue with my rear headrest monitors!

    please get pics guys, I don't live in a big city.
  19. Do they make a control for the Z1? What kind of functions can it control. There is an infrared port on the front of the z1 so I'm assuming so. Second, does anyone have a Microphone clip lying around I can purchase. I'm going to relook on ebay, but thought maybe someone would have one on here first. Take Care, Josiah Below is a pic of my install on my truck, I should have cut the holes in the headrests a little smaller. Now I can somewhat see some of the cut leather material even after it's installed. http://www.nomoreroominhell.com/Sandizz ... itors2.jpg
  20. very nice, how is the bluetooth! Does it come with the remote?

    music on the Z2

    unfortuntely you cannot, sorry :[ There is a way if you're very mechanically confident, you will need to "unlock the HDD". Do a search on that.
  22. I too need one :[ If anyone can help I'd greatly appreciate it, will give a little more than shipping as well. Take care.
  23. The recording button is greyed out, where I cannot push it when an MP3 cd is placed in the drive. Is there no way to download MP3 cd's to the hdd? What is the best way to get the most songs on a cd and then to the Z1's HDD? Lastly, how do I make sure the CD text for each track information is included on the CD if I'm using Nero. Below I've included a pic of the Z1 in my F150. Take Care Guys Picture 1 Picture 2
  24. I believe you would need to run the rear audio outputs which are on the back of the z1 to the back seat and then to a splitter for 2 headphones. They are RCA cables (A/V) that come out of the back of your z1/z2. Took me a while to find this as well, was pissing me off.
  25. I wish I could help you but I'd need to look at the bottom of the aux input. I know what you're talking about, I have an 04 F150 but the Dashboard Tray Aux input only comes on the 06+ models. I had to implement a PIE-Aux unit to have auxillery input on my Audiophile head unit. It's going to be pretty simple, get some pics of the underside. You will probably need to cut the lead coming out of the aux input and like others have said, just wire up a MALE tip.
