HellfireUSMC Posted February 23, 2008 Report Share Posted February 23, 2008 Hey guys, I'm a little lost with trying to install my D3 into my 07 Charger w/ the Boston Acoustic system. I have the Metra CHTO-01 Chrysler CAN Amp Turn-on Interface With the D3 RCA Harness I have the: Front Output White - White of CHTO 14 Pin Harness Front Output Red - Gray of CHTO 14 Pin Harness Rear Output White - Green of CHTO 14 Pin Harness Rear Output Red - Violet of CHTO 14 Pin Harness I have the Red from the CHTO 14 Pin spliced to the ACC Red of the D3 Power Harness I have the Black, Yellow and Orange wires from the D3 Power Harness and CHTO 22 Pin Harness Spliced together. That is where I'm at, the eight wires on the D3 Power Harness for the speakers are not being used I know I've got to be missing something, perhaps you could give me a hand?

joker2 Posted February 23, 2008 Report Share Posted February 23, 2008 All you need to do is get either crimp caps or high quality elctrical tape and tape them all off indvidually. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HellfireUSMC Posted February 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2008 I have done that already, my problem is that I'm still not recieving audio through my speakers and I wanted to know if I wied it correctly or if I screwed up Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ldc2335 Posted February 23, 2008 Report Share Posted February 23, 2008 once you get done and installed, goto system menu and touch ANT Contol button, it should be on power( not tuner )....i think thats your problem Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HellfireUSMC Posted February 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2008 I appreciate all your help but unfortunately that didn't correct the problem either. I still have no sound, I'm thinking the previous owner fried it somehow because everything work except no sound. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ldc2335 Posted February 24, 2008 Report Share Posted February 24, 2008 what did you do with the mute wire? if ya grounded that may cause it, also check volume knob on chto-01 also did you cycle the ignition twice slowly before starting it up mabye try disconnecting battery for a few then reconnect and make sure to cycle ingnition twice.. since this is what turns on the chto-01 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HellfireUSMC Posted February 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2008 Well the mute wire along with the amp powerup wires were not on the RCA cable, so I went ahead and spliced the blue/white wire from the CHTO to the yellow/yellow bat + wires, amp powers up. I did what you said about adjusting the potentiameter all the way up to max and I unpluged the CHTO then repluggedit back in and cycled the ignition to the on position twice before starting the car. When I did that and turned the D3 volume to the max I very faintly heard the music being played. Still isn't fixed but you seem to know your stuff...any other ideas man?

Ldc2335 Posted February 24, 2008 Report Share Posted February 24, 2008 to reset chto ya gotta disconnect for like 5-10 mins, then with door open cycle ignition 2 times... also check fuzes under dash and under hood...your car manual will tell ya which one are for the amp... also make sure the "loud" feature is on in the sound settings menu mute wire from chto should not be connected to anything..if ya did the video hack, then the mute wire from the avic harness should be moved to the other slot in the harness and then grounded, but if ya did not do the hack, then you can leave em both hanging or wire them together.. but you dont wanna splice em to a power wire cuz that will activate the mute.. amp gets signal from can bus data system to turn on, so no extra wires are needed to be sliced onto the yellow wire. ...im kinda lost from there...let me know what happens if ya did wire for wire like the instructions, the chances are you go a defective chto, but its probably something simple, just overlooked Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I would recommend the Pac harness if you are still able to take the metra one back. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HellfireUSMC Posted February 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2008 I did everything you said and I hear loud pops when I did the ignition primes. Is there a mute function anywhere on this unit that I can search for? Which PAC harness? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Is there a mute function anywhere on this unit that I can search for? Which PAC harness? Search on ebay for PAC C2R-CHY It has all the wires you need. In addition in the future if you want to enable your steering wheel controls the pac interface for steering controls will plug in via a harness. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
