OK so my z130bt install is done and im almost completely satisfied. I would just like to have the unit power on when I remote start my truck. Its a 2010 avalanche ltz. When I remote startnothing really comes on that i noticed. Any ideas what wire i can use for acc power and where i can find it? Does anyone else have a ubit that starts with remote start?

Ok today is a new day. New bypass method works perfect! Fixed the back up cam issue. Removed some plastic from behind radio and now everything fits nice and tidy. The unit sits nice and flush the screen opens and closes with no rubbing! I'll put up some pics later. I'm just so glad it's done. Oh and also with my 2010 avalanche and the PAC os-4 I didn't have to use the weird sounding replacement chime module. My stock chimes still function. I still have onstar and I can still use the factory Bluetooth to make calls I I want to. I still have control of the factory xm tuner however my subscriptio

Well as things usually go... ok so i figured out that the pac-os4 actually does supply a video feed to the back up cam!!! you just have to move some pins, pretty easy stuff. New problems now are while trying to cram everything into the opening i must have messed up my bypass cause now i cant watch videos nor use the greyed out functions that i could earlier. And to boot the unit is still not in the dash far enough.. guess its cuttin time tomorrow. Also i figured out why i couldnt watch pandora.. i have an iphone 3gs i can twatch you tube but not pandora

Well it worked fine. Everything went smoothly except for the UPS guy(the girl was off ) was late. also it took me a while to figure out how to program the pac swi ps. everything is great with 2 issues. my back up camera isnt working as of yet. I assume ill have to tap into a feed somewhere and splice in an rca. if anyone knows ho please share. secondly i cant play video from my iphone like netflix. not sure what gives yet.

Ok so I have a 2010 Avalanche with onstar and bose. I wanted to keep onstar so the regular yellow wire was not a good option for me. So I scoured every closet and junk drawer I have looking for various wires ad molex connectors. I was close with a connector from an old computer harness but no cigar. Not wanting to force anything, i gave up. Then i stripped the wire and fed the raw/exposed end of the wire through the back of the av connector to see if it would fit through the opening. IT DID. So I took it out and carefully fed the raw end of the wire into the connector the same way you would

hello I just bought a 2008 avalanche with bose but no nav. I used to have the avic z1 in my silverado but i didnt have bose. What id like to know is what parts do i need to get the z120bt installed and keep bose and steering wheel controls. Thanks a ton

[quote name="cntrylvr79"] [quote name="bigRazor"]Yeah saw that but also read that some of our trucks had the VSS wire in the OEM radio harness. Was wondering if you were able to use that. I'll do a little more research on this one.[/quote] If you have vss behind the radio then you can use that. If your stock radio has/had speed controlled volume then there will be a vss wire in the radio harness.[/quote] lol see i didnt even know that. i could have done that... but then i did my pretty quick so maybe that was common knowledge then, thats my story and im sticking to it. :)

[quote name="bigRazor"]Where did you hookup the VSS wire?[/quote] if you do a search on here your sure to find it. its on the harness behind the instrament panel its easy to get to.

i thought my z1 was messed up once like that.. as it turned out, my sensor on my truck had fallen into the dash.. lol.. i didnt even notice. i just noticed that ,my z1 was always in night mode.

you can just modify it again.

i live in baltimore and nearly all of our stations use ut for every song all day long. i really miss having it

ditto what ducati said, and id say $130 bucks for the install is a steal if you cant do it yourself. I prefer to do this sort of thing myself but thats just me. i woudl think you probobly could do it yourself with enough time. but you may have more time than money or more money than time. who knows

well thats interesting. If your antenna has always been sideways and you used to have the reverse wire hookep up, maybe when you drive in reverse the z1 corrects its position. So then it know which way is backwards..

i had another idea today, maybe your antenna is just sideways. If it thinks ahead is to the right, the when you go forward it may be thinking your going sideways. anyway thats one more thing to check.

you can do bread crumbs but its kinda all or nothin.... you can leave them on all the time, which in my opinion woudl clutter up your screen, or you can leave them on for just one trip, ie. you plata course and it will leave them on till you get there, then they go away not very good if you wanna get home from somewhere lol.. but i guess you could leave them on all the time to get where you are going and then when you get home or at least back the the states you could then erase them.
