05GRide Posted August 24, 2006 Report Share Posted August 24, 2006 So I installed my AVIC-D2. I put the unused Cellular Mute wire and tab into the unused pin and grounded it, along with the parking brake wire. (I have a 2005 G35 Coupe). I also connected the VSS wire. I've read on here that it doesn't matter if you connect the VSS wire and ground that extra pin, it should work while moving. Does it matter that I connected the extra pin to the same ground as the one I used for the unit itself? Because I lose the features that are supposed to be bypassed, when I start moving! Anyone have any thoughts on why this might be occuring? I've also seen people talk about wiring up some 528t relay box or something in order to bypass the warning message and the functions shutting off while moving..... any truth to this? HELP!!

cntrylvr79 Posted August 24, 2006 Report Share Posted August 24, 2006 Your cell mute wire might not be making contact with the pin inside the d2. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dpdurst Posted August 24, 2006 Report Share Posted August 24, 2006 Check the cell wire in the unused pin slot, I had the same problem, found the pin came back out of the plug when I plugged the connector into the unit, I had to mess a bit to get it to work and now its fine.

05GRide Posted August 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2006 Alright I'll check it out. I made sure to check it when I was doing the install and it had come out then so I made sure to pop it back in. I double check it and it felt like it was in there.. I'll recheck I suppose, and hopefully that's the problem! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

kgdecker Posted December 22, 2006 Report Share Posted December 22, 2006 so the cellular wire goes in the secret plug on the back of the D2, it was my understanding i was just supposed to put a ground wire in there... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If you ground it now it will mute your radio. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

05silverGT Posted February 5, 2007 Report Share Posted February 5, 2007 Yea don't listen to the stores. ... I'm sure it's store policy not to tell you about the bypass. (read: Liability) It can be done with the D2. Trust me 8) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
120bpm Posted February 13, 2007 Report Share Posted February 13, 2007 One other note. The system was installed at a retailer. Any way they could of hooked it up to make the bypass ineffective? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
