  1. I don't know why it would do this but since I have updated my my to 2011 with CNSD-210FM my GPS is not recalculating my destination if I make a wrong turn or decide to take an alternate route ! I have look at all the settings and contrary to other GPS it doesn't seem to be an option for that.. Is this a bug with the update ? Anyone here having the same issue ?
  2. So I finally updated my X920BT and everything work perfectly when I finally understood the process... The first stepmis to upgrade the unit to version 2.04: This is achieve by downloading the official 2.03 update from the Pioneer site and applyingnthe patch to it (replacingbthe 2 files). Put that update with the patch on a SD card and reboot, the system will update to version 2.04 Next is to update the maps: To do this, take the SD1 dir from the update file and put that on a SD (needs to be 4gb) insert SD like normal and the system will ask a few questions say yes/ok to all and o
  3. Hey guys is it normal that SD1 folder is a little bit larger than 3 gb? I remember reading that we need a 2 gb card for the update.
  4. I've look and have not found any information on how to perform the upgrade of an X920BT to a X940Bt, as it been done yet ? Please let me know where to find more info about this. Regards,
  5. Not the same but similar issue, on mine when my Iphone 4 connects none of the contact icons are active (Transfer Contact, or Contact) bith are grey out. I have seen at a couple occasion the "Tranfert Contact" icon becoming active just after my phone connects but then goes back grey. The phone works fine through the radio, I can initiate and receive call through the Avic, can even play music via bluetooth, I have tried "un-pairing" and "re-pairing"the phone and no change. Allso checked the Bluetooth setting of the phone, it sees the Pioneer AVIC and if I go in the details every
  6. I happen to be troubleshooting a little rattle comming from one of my left side speakers and realized something.... When my balance is completely to the right I had no more sub comming out at all, so I thought I either had a burnt fused or a disconected wire on one of the amps. So I took my setup appart to realized that the AVICs use a stereo output for the subwoofer, even though the signal is probably a single channel with relly no difference for left or right. But in my car (mustang with shaker 500) I had connected the 2 sub inputs from the PAC module to the 2 sub output of the radi
  7. In the tech video they mention the navigation units require the CD-IU51V not th 50
  8. Me too I have the CD-IU50V cable and I'm sure that's what was recommended to use on their website last year when I bought my unit. Strange !!! +++++++ Update: It's confirmed, I just opened my installation instructions from my unit and it's clearly stating to use the CD-IU50V even the Pioneer website suggest to get the CD-IU50V not the CD-IU51V.... Pioneer should replace our cables free of cherge for the CD-IU51V !
  9. I don't think mine has infrared. I have the ground loop isolator from my PAC module, I will give it a try.
  10. I just installed my backup camera on my X920BT, I have bought a Boyo VTL375 and I have a small issue. When I turn the lights ON there's lines scrolling in the screen.. I tried grounding to chassis the shield from the video cable but no luck still having interferences, then I tested to see if it was the radio suffering from this interference or the camera by connect the camera to a small battery and the lines dissapeared. It's seems that my HID's are causing garbage on the 12v. How can I filter this ? Thanks,
  11. Again, just to clarify something, using a CAP on the ACC line only solve the issue related to the lost of the ACC when starting it does not resolve the voltage dropping below 10 volts issue ? And also to validate, if I read correctly the voltage drop is critical on the ACC line as well as on the constant power input, both need to stay higher then 10.5v ? Also to add a delay to the ACC input on the AVIC.PDF circuit, can't we simply add a diode and a capacitor at the base of Q1 to maintain it alive a couple of seconds while the car is cranking ? (T= 3*R*C, so a 2200uF would give us aroun
  12. Are you by any chance driving a Mustang with a Shaker system ? If it's the cas look at my post in this thread for the solution http://avic411.com/index.php?/topic/29331-new-radio-keeps-resetingrestarting-when-bass-is-turned-up/page__st__30
  13. Keep in mind that this only apply to reboot due to playing music at high volume.... You will also note that the person that did validate the solution works for PAC in the R&D group (poster Iskwezm) I don't know if it's permitted here, but here is the link to the original thread from the Mustang Forum: http://mustangforums.com/forum/audio-visual-electronics/622606-06-pac-c2r-frd1-wiring-harness-help.html Solution is on page 3...
  14. Thanks, that make sense and it explains why it's only rated 1 amps. PS. for those that had issues with he reboot using a PAC module, it's not power related. look at my post on page 3 of this thread. http://avic411.com/index.php?/topic/29331-new-radio-keeps-resetingrestarting-when-bass-is-turned-up/page__st__30 Dean
  15. For those of you having issues with the reboot when using a PAC module in a Mustang, I found this interesting thread from a Mustang Forum solving the reboot issue: ======================================================================== " After a little bit of diagnosis/trouble shooting with an engineer at PAC we found that the Shaker amps are backfeeding 12v into the C2R-FRD1 unit when at high load (we speculate this was originaly to tell the Ford HU to lower volume output). This is causing an overvolt condition in the C2R-FRD1, the elctronics are designed to operate at 5v. So wh
  16. As I was looking at alternatives to prevent ma radio from always rebooting when starting (the car shuts down the Acc output while cranking) I found something interesting with my PAC C2R-FRD1 module. Re-looking at the wiring instructions and specs, I noticed that the red wire out of the PAC being used to power the unit is only rated 1 Amp. That seems low to power a X920 ? I have a Mustang and I know the amps for the subs are driven by a seperate power source but I'm still driving the rest of the speakers from the head unit. Should I modify the wiring and install a relay to a anothe
  17. Is there a way to prevent the radio from rebooting if I restart the car ? Very often I stop to wait for someone and let the radio play, then when I want to restart the car the radio reboot. Is there a way to change the wiring so it's not doing this. I have a 2005 mustang and the PAC module. Thanks,
  18. Could this issue becaused by an incompatibility of the output from the radio to the amp, causing the radio to rebout ? Impedance too low, loading too much the output of the radio ? Has anyone tried with aftermarket amps to see if it does the same thing...?
  19. Is it because too much current flows through the module (via the yellow wire) and than reset the module In all the test done if the yellow output of the PAC not being used is the red output still droping ?
  20. What about hooking the wire that normally power the AVIC (yellow wire) to triger the relay (pin 85) and than the relay will be connected to the battery (pin 87) and to the radio with pin 30. Correct me if I'm wrong but the yellow wire is the one that requires high current ! Like that the PAC signal will be use to triger the relay not at full current and it should maintain the accessory delay since the relay will open at the expiration of the delay and the radio will stop.. Doese this make sense ?
  21. It had 1.2.1 firmware, I did the 1.3 upgrade and now it works fine ! Thanks
  22. I'm trying to hook up my Ipod video (60GB) to my X920BT and it does not want to connect it ! My 2 GB nano works fine with my radio but everytime I connect the 60GB it fails. PS I'm using the OEM cable (no cheap eBay cable) Any idea what would be wrong...
  23. Has anyone figured how to get out of this loop ? I'm having the same issue with a F90BT and regardless of the version of testmode I use or even with the Pioneer 2.00800 upgrade the unit is only loopig to the Pioneer screen and re-boot... Please help.
  24. My X920BT has done that a couple of times also in my Mustang when listening to music very loud or with a lot of bass. It reboot itself. I thought I was driving it to much and asking too much from the amps....
