Cowboy UP

I have an audio vox licence plate camera that you can get at best buy for 130 bucks. It works pretty good. It also has a bypass on it that will allow you reverse the image. I lot of camera's will be reversed when you plug them into the avic. It took only a few mintues to install. Wiring is really really easy. To flip the imgane image so it is correct on this camera. Just pull the cicuit thing where you connect the wires together. Just get it and it will make sense.

Yes you need to turn on the input that you want to use. I think it is under system on the AV menu. Don't hold me to it. I don't have it memorizied. You do need to turn on the av input

I have posted a couple of things on the forum about not getting the bypass to work. I have a couple of things I want to run by everyone to help me fix my problem. Starting off. I have audio but no video on DVD. No I can't midify route on GPS when in motion. I went down to the local stereo store and they told me that I needed to hook up my speed sensor and intall an on off switch along with moving the pin, grounding it out and then grounding out the parking brake wire. Is this BS.

I also have gone into the vechile dynositics menu that tells you what is hooked up. Should the Speed senor say 1. I am not sure I hooked up the right wire.

It also says that my parking brake is off. Should it say On if bypass in done correctly? I drive a 2006 Chevy Silverado with the 5.3 liter engine.

 

Also I notice an intial menu comes up on the AV screen when I first plug in unit. It as a mute button. Do I mess with this at all?

 

Getting back to the dynostics menu. When I turn it on I get a beeping noise and the speed sensor goes from 1 to a quick blip 0 and back to 1 again. Is this Normal. I apperiate any help because I am stuck. Help me please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I have checked the pin and it is moved on spot up from stock

Thanks, It looks like I will have to figure out the bypass

It looks good, but I am very willing to try and fix. How do I make it seat good, if it is not?

I was wondering if the gm integration adapter could be affecting the bypass. I have not been able to get mine to work. Could that be it? I hope there is an installer out there that can help me out, or someone who has done it with this adapter. I am about ready to give up on the dang bypass. HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!!! I know I have made a lot of posts, but I haven't gotten anything back that has fixed my problem. Sorry everyone, I want the bypass, just as much as the next guy.

yes you can tap into the tailight for your power and ground. The camera will only work and will get power when you back up though. Use the back up light hook up for power. you can ground by using the backup lights ground. It is the same idea as hooking up extra backup lights. I have done this and I have a backup camera for my truck.

IT is probably an audio hook up. My camera has a built in microphone and I hooked. You can use one of the two assesory jacks and hook it up. You don't need it to make your camera work

Ok I could not get the bypass to work in my truck for my D3 so I am looking at going a diffrent route. Can I put in a DVD changer. I already have a 12 cd changer installed. Can I do both? I am only seeing one IBus plug in the back of the D3

It might be the weather. I have been having trouble with mine. Mine is just black with the old tv line that move up. After my truck is warm and it warms up a little outside, it seams to work. I am using an audiovox licence plate frame camera. Got it at Best buy for 130 bucks. It works good, and it has a feature that always you to flip the image so it right. Pioneer did some stuff to the units that flip the image if you don't buy the pioneer camera. Let me know if it might just be the weather. I am just guessing about mine from experience. Work fine during the day, a little trouble when it gets dark.

Nav works, I can't view or edit any routes though.

I can't modify my route when driving over ten. I only have access stuff that should already work. Not the stuff after the bypass.

I am stuck on the bypass. I have check and re checked everything. I have moved mute wire and grounded, grounded e brake wire. Grounded ground wire. I can not get the thing to work. I have audio but no video. I can get the DVD controls to come up and they work. Just no video. I am not getting a warring light coming up saying that e brake is not hooked up correctly. I drive a 2006 Chevy Silverado. I have a backup camera hooked up as well. So has anyone had the audio but no video problem? If so, how did you fix it? I need to know if I have a bad unit, if so I need to talk to Pioneer about using my warranty. My unit was made in Aug. 2007. Please someone, give me a simple answer. I have put in about 15 cd playler, Intalled subs, disc changers. I am not great, but I have experience doing installs and I am stuck.

havn't tried it yet. i will get back to you when I do.

Is it common if you don't do the bypass correctly to have audio, but no video???? If this is true I need to do some problem solving, or do I have a bad unit. I am already having issues with the touch screen a little bit. Just a little help before I start ripping my hair out. Peace everyone

I am stuck on my bypass. Does anyone live near by who has done it and can help me out. Look at what I did. I am checked and rechecked. Maybe a fresh look is the answer. I have no video at all. Just audio.

I have had a similar problem. I live in Eugene Oregon and my GPS was showing me living in LA. I just waited about an hour and it corrected itself. If that doesn't work, reset it by hitting the pin hole on the near the top of the unit.

Yes, Everything works fine, it is just showing that I disc 3 is always selected. I also am having major problems with the bypass. I have another post about that problem.

it is the priemer 12 disc. not sure about the model number. I bought it about 2-3 years ago. Yes I used and I Bus. I had to buy one. Not a cheap cable.

I have a 12 disc changer that I hooked up to my unit. When it pulls up the the screen to select the disc number, the 3 disc is always showing as selected. I push the other disc and it works, but the disc 3 is always selected. Is this normal, or do I have a defective unit. I just bought my unit?

I grounded out the mute and e brake wire. I also moved the pin for the mute up one from the stock position? I am stumped!!!! I took everything out and re did it also. How many things can I ground out on one wire. I am grounding out my AVIC the mute wire, the e brake wire, and my back up camera. Is what I have happening normal and I just did the bypass wrong, or is it my unit that might have been damaged. I am referring to the auto, but no video. I have no video even when I am parked with e brake on.

I did the bypass and I know somthing is not right. I was wondering if it is common for for the auto to play and not the video. Is it me are the unit?

I did everything . Move the pin, grounded. Grounded parking break wire as well. I only grounded to wire harness. Didn't make extra ground. Is this my problem. I have audio, but no video when moving or when I was still with e brake on. Help please

Has anyone done this. I have a 12 disc pioneer disk changer that I want to hook up to my D3 so I don't have to have to look at the other display that comes with the disk changer. I looked at all the install directions and I am stumped here.

I have been reading the chat's but I can't find how to do a background mode for a D3. Can someone point me the right direction. I am sure it's out there.
