sweetguy4now Posted July 27, 2008 Report Share Posted July 27, 2008 I have read several posts about bypassing my unit and the picture still turns off after reaching 15 mph .. I grounded my parking brake wire I grounded my mute wire I relocated my mute wire right below the original slot in the wiring harness Does anyone have an idea ?

kemske37 Posted July 27, 2008 Report Share Posted July 27, 2008 double check that the relocation of the mute wire is correct. from the factory it will be right next to a pink wire. after the relocation it will have an empty slot next to it. also if you use the blue 3M scotchlock splices, they sometimes lose connection on smaller wire. i was having trouble getting my steering wheel interface to work and this turned out to be the culprate. they are really meant for a larger (16 gauge or bigger wire) and unfortunately all of the wiring for this install is pretty tiny stuff. just some stuff to try.

dye4metal Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 double check that the pin is in the right location and locked. double check the grounds too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sweetguy4now Posted July 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 I double checked everything , the pin is exactly below the old location . I don't know if I put it in the right way , but I see it through the harness and it is locked in place cause I can't pull it out , so it propably is good . I'll try to ground it somewhere else .

HiFiSi Posted July 30, 2008 Report Share Posted July 30, 2008 IF the 2 wires' grounds are good and solid, and if the pin/wire has been relocated to the correct position and is inserted properly, it will work, 100% of the time. All you can do is make sure you did those 3 things right. If it doesn't work, one of those 3 points is done incorrectly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
