After so many issues with my bypassing, I finally got it to work. But now I realize that when I try to navigate at night, my 'red arrow' still moves when I'm at a stand still. So I checked CONNECTION STATUS and realized that my SPEED PULSE is at 39-40 when I have the headlight on! When I turn off the headlight at a standstill it goes back to 0. Is this a problem with my harness or install? Can anyone let me know what wire dictates the speed pulse please?? I can't navigate at night

I think my installer messed up the connections of m y X930BT. I first noticed the screen on my x930bt gets really dim when I am not in the 'P' position of my gears. Basically as soon as I put it in gear other then the 'PARKING GEAR', the screen becomes really dim. So when I'm in 'R, N, or D' it becomes dim. So I went into the picture settings, and when I switch the gear shift in and out of 'P', I noticed that the picture settings icon goes from a sun to a moon. When in 'P', its an icon of a sun. When it's in 'R, N, D' it goes into a moon icon. It's going from day to night mode, but

I think the installer messed up cause when I goto map settings and change the day/night display to automatic and then change gears the map goes from day to night when I switch out of P into R or D. So something is seriously messed up. The system should be detecting based on my headlight switch not by my gears Anyone else have this issue or is everyone else's by headlights

I held down to the 'mode' button for 2 seconds and was able to adjust the picture settings including the dimmer adjustment. While in the picture settings, when I switch in and out of P, I noticed that the picture settings goes from a sun to a moon. So I'm basically able to adjust dimmer settings for when I'm in Park and in gear, but the system is thinking its day and night. So does this mean my installed messed up and misconnected a wire to my gears instead of my headlight module? Is anyone's like that or is everyone's dim when the headlights are off/on

I noticed the screen on my x930bt gets really dim when I am not in the "P" of my gears. Basically as soon as I put it in gear, the screen becomes really dim. Is that a wiring installation issue? I thought it only gets dim when I turn on the headlights, but it seems like it doing that when I drive not when my lights are one. When I put the gear back to "P" it becomes brighter again. Help please!!!

Ok I found out what my problem was. Although the yellow mute wire looked like it was good an snapped in there and stayed in there....it wasn't making contact. So my installer took a regular wire and spliced it, folded the contacts in half so that it would be thicker in girth and stuck it in there then connected it to ground with the parking brake and it worked!!! So those of you having issues, it could just be the mute wire. Don't be deceived if it fits in there snuggly, if it doesn't work, it's not making contact.

My installer ran all everything to harness ground, which is wired to the main ground of the unit. So the ground should be good, because it's the ground for the whole unit

Can anyone that has successfully bypassed their unit answer this question? Do you guys still see this message: "system detected improper connection of parking brake lead" Will it say it no matter it's bypassed or not??

Sorry I meant to try out the harness for experimental sake. The place I bought my unit from is really far from me. Wanted to make sure it's my harness before I drove out there. Another question for all of you successful bypass people. When the unit is successfully bypassed will it still say: "system detected improper connection of parking brake lead" Or will it say that all the time even when it's been bypassed.

Ok that gives me hope. Hopefully my tech can get his hands on a harness tomorrow, if not I'm going to possibly hit up Best buy and buy one and return it after swapping out harnesses.

My tech that's done this a million times pulled out the mute wire and it looked good. He reinserted it back next to the red wire. He suggested to try with a new harness just for the sake of it. He will get one from Pioneer tomorrow. I have version 3.000 on there and everything is supposedly hooked up right. He double checked it. It shouldn't be the software cause it's the sameone as everyone else's. If it is the doing of pioneer then there would be alot more people on here indicating that's it's not working for them cause mine was manufactured in May 2011. My tech buys directly

My other tech has bypassed a lot of these units and he reconnected the yellow pin and regrounded the parking, mute wires together and no luck. He does have the speed sensor wire hooked up. My unit was manufactured in May 2011, version 3.0000 I'm ready to pull out my hair!!!! Still doesn't work!

When did you buy your unit?

When I click ok, the message goes away but I'm not able to do anything in motion. The icons are faded and when I try to watch DVDs it has a pop up screen that says 'watching videos in motion is strictly prohibited' I really doubt it's the software, or at least I hope it's not. I'm gonna have another installer look at the mute wire. Anyone else with this issue??

I just had my installer follow instructions on the bypass and it didn't work. I am getting the 'improper connection of Parking Brake lead' error. I'm going to have another installer check the mute wire connector connection and the grounding of the parking brake, ground and mute wire again to make sure everything is contacting. I just bought my unit 2 weeks ago, software shouldn't matter right?

Can someone confirm that you are able to skip tracks and adjust volume through Bluetooth on Pandora? I don't see that option on my screen. I am just able to press play or pause. Please see picture #1 below. Another weird thing is that it says 'Andy's iPhone Connecting' and the word CONNECT on the bottom when it's already connected. I have an iPhone 4S iOS5. It plays Pandora music fine, but I don't have any options to skip or adjust volume like barney stinson said above. When I do click connect, I see a pop up that says, 'Please start the connection on the audio device' Can anyone con

Does anyone know about the lighting of the LCD and buttons? Does the x930bt's buttons light up during the day? Meaning when the headlights are in the off position? I remember on my avic D3, the lights and LCD used to dim at night when I turned on the lights. On this x930bt the LCD does not dim when I turn on the lights. The LCD screen looks rather dim during the daytime and the lights stay on all the time? Is this normal? I'm afraid it's due to the faulty by pass?

Ok guys I need some serious help. I've been searching the other parts of the forums for this issue. My installer tried to do the bypass. He moved the yellow mute button next to the red wire and attached the green parking brake wire and the yellow wire to a black wire (ground) all together. He even tested the ground and its good. I'm still getting the error message that says "impromper connection of parking brake lead." Any speed above 10 miles per hour blacks out the video. Possibly related question. Does the x930bt's buttons light up during the day? Meaning when the headlights are

I read that the knock off versions of the pioneer ipod/iphone cable, CD-IU51V don't work on video. Is that the case? There are alot on eBay for a fraction of the price. Is it worth buying the actual Pioneer one for $40??

Can anyone confirm that SLINGPlAYER will work in 'APP MODE'? I know Sling Media Support says SlingPlayer must be running in High Quality (HQ) streaming mode. You must use the Apple Digital AV Adapter, the Apple Component AV Cable or the Apple Composite AV cable. Visit the Apple Store online for more information and product availability. So I'm not sure if it will work if iPhone is connected to the Pioneer CD-IU51V iPod cable.... Can anyone confirm pleeeeeease?!?!

Maybe this will work with the app mode or application mode? According to this youtube video, any app that supports video output will display. Has anyone tried it with slingbox?

Ok, I just bought the X930bt. I'm trying to find a solution to play Slingbox from my iPhone 4 or iPhone 4S on the X930bt. I noticed that the x930bt only has RCA inputs and not HDMI. Video mirroring is supported on the iPhone 4S but its only through an HDMI cable. I don't think there's a way to convert HDMI to RCA. Does anyone have any tips or ideas? I want to refrain from jailbreaking my iphone to use with the ipod cable. I am able to buy the RCA AV cable for my iphone, but Slingbox media stated that it will only work in HQ mode, which means fast internet via WiFi. So if I'm on t

So it's safe to say that it supports BT a2dp? So any music on my iphone whether its via ipod or a radio app will play wirelessly on my x930?

Hi guys, I finally upgrade my car and will be selling my avic-d3 for a X930BT. I had a few questions for you experts. Does the X930BT play/control Pandora wirelessly via bluetooth a2dp or does it require the ipod/iphone cable? I also wanted to play Slingbox audio on the screen. Does anyone know what kind of cables I'll need? I think I would have to use the RCA cables to connect it to the back, as I didn't see any other video 'input' connections. Can anyone confirm? I think I also need specific Apple branded output cables on my iphone for it to play 'mirror' or play what's o

Can the AVIC-X930BT control Pandora radio via bluetooth a2dp wirelessly?
