anyway i can use my ipod photo with a newer avic model? or any newer dock accessory?

 

unfortunately works in none of the 5 dock accesories ive got,  3 being pioneer units-

not sure why exactly,as  it came with a usb cable, but i just get an error msg on the ipods screen or a not supported on the accessories screen

 

the last unit i had that it worked with was a d3, long gone unfortunately

ive found the original n1 unit to have been the most accurate over the years,

the rest ive sold and installed over the years have all had this annoying little issue

some ahead and most behind

 

it was also the most expensive

probably just a fluke

 

oh well, like others said u will get used to it

one thing -

be sure your ipod is compatible with

the f series and cd-i230v cable connection,

b4 buying the cableing

it seems most older ipods are not compatible

from pio web

NOT Compatible

> iPod (1G, 2G, 3G, 4G)

> iPod Photo

> iPod Mini (1G, 2G)

> iPod Shuffle

forgot to post back on this one,

never found the VSS , apparently things changed

for wiring for 07 --rev found as posted- thanks

 

the sub dash must be trimmed down on the vans radio

opening to fit dbldin

 

also i had to fab brackets to mount the unit- there is no

factory brackets or anything in there- its just empty

and wide open

 

thanks

Josh

thanks alot,

the VSS was right at the cluster-made it much easier.

had to get the REV at the fuse blk under rear seat.

suprised i couldnt find the REV up front any where-

 

yes i did need to trim that brkt support for the factory radio

easy one - for once - took 30 secs with dremmel

 

the fit and finish with the metrakit to chevy was really

not the greatest- but that seems common on the gms

 

thanks

Hello,

looking for VSS and reverse wires

on 2002 chevy trailblazer

 

also , is there a DblDin install kit needed

for this vehicle?

 

thanks

Josh

i havent installed this kit myself--but it does list your

application

Josh

components connected thru the ip bus system are

controlled on/off by the headunit on/off

 

even though connected to constant 12v+

its not always on

dont mean to hijack thread

 

misfit

is the free cam nd-bc2 thru CF part

of a current promotion thru pioneer?

i have not been notified of any such

promotion--so im guessing its on their

own. it is kinda redicoulos these prices\

considering that crutchfield is most likely

a volume dealer and getting 5% lower

than dealer cost. #'s dont add up

im gonna ask pio rep tomorrow

Josh

i think dvd video playback is really the bottom line

if you want dvd video get the d3 if not then get the d2

 

on a lesser note--the d3 has exceptional ipod control

recommend running a common ground for that equipment

to a near by frame or other such location. I ve never had a problem

running a few small components(head unit+sat+ipodetc...)off

of the 12v+in the factory harnes---but if i am running more than

just a few or its a top end install-I will rrun a seperate fused

12ga. from the battery.

I know all the wiring gets overwhelming--i usaully will

build a harness on the work bench --as far as i can go

then put it in the vehicle

I think its one of those deals where all manufacturers add
a little speal like that just to cover their a--
in real world- Ive had mine in for two years without any problems
I have gone thru a couple autowashes- usaully do a hand wash every other week and I trailer snowmobiling- never a problem

no problems with ones Ive installed either

thanks for any info
