Humv Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 I installed my new z110bt and to be honest im not that happy with it. I sold my AVH-P6800dvd for this one and regret it big time!!!.. maybe in not used to it yet. but Is it just my unit or do any of you guys notice the video quality sucks on the z110.. Anyway lets get to this topic. My problem is when i am in motion the warning symbol comes on and when i reach a certain speed it turns off and video is back on allowing me to watch the video. what can this be? Installed in my Hummer H3 with Gmos04 with onstar and monsoon. I connected everything correct. vss, mute, reverse. The Green wire is grounded with a switch just like the way i connected my p6800dvd but for some reason its not working with this unit. I dont want to do the bypass with removing the mute. Has anybody on this forum used a switch method? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
VBLUE42 Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 Follow the directions on the bypass threads. If it doesn't work its not done correctly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Humv Posted January 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 Follow the directions on the bypass threads. If it doesn't work its not done correctly. I can't find the Thread that uses the Switch method Quote Link to post Share on other sites
VBLUE42 Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 There is no thread using a switch with any of the navi systems. If you don't want to do the bypass as instructed then you cant expect it to work. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CamelTowing Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 You don't need a switch, you need to take it back to your installer and tell him to do it right. If he doesn't know how, take it to a real shop or read the threads that tell your bonehead installer how to do it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
urtruelove78 Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 Well i know on hyundai santa fe forum someone did this. You can ask your installer to verify but switch should send signal to ground cable which you bypass and ground connection should complete. Â I also want to give it a try since if one bad day cops pull over for something and want to test video in motion then i want to disable bypass by switch. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Humv Posted January 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 Ask my installer? okay hold on... I asked myself and i aint got no clue.. lol When i hit over 10 mph the screen warning turns on. Its gotta be some singnal being sent to the HU letting it know i am in drive. Would this be the vss wire? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CamelTowing Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 No, its the gyro inside the unit telling it you are in motion. That means the bypass was done incorrectly Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bob_80 Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 like he says the bypass is done wrong all i did was move the mute wire over one slot and then grounded both the mute wire and the parking brake wire together. I did use a switch to stop the ground from theese two wires and mounted it under the dash just incase of getting pulled over Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bob_80 Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 scense your green wire is allready on a switch just move the yellow mute wire over one slot on the harness and join it to the green wire when you flick your switch the bypass will work as your previous model. the key thing is moving the yellow mute wire over one slot Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And Exactly what will i be discconecting? what is the purpose of the "Mute" wire.  If i move the wire then theres no point for a switch. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
VBLUE42 Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 Find another wire you are not using or try to acquire a wire from your installer and move it to the proper position. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bob_80 Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 the switch is incase i get pulled over Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bob_80 Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 im not sure how you could do the by pass in your case your mute wire is probally hooked up to the onstar adapter which you will need for the music to cancel out when using your onstar. not sure if the bypass will work without taking the mute wire out of its origional position. or if you can leave it plugged in and just add another wire to the next slot over. im sure someone must know if that will work or not Quote Link to post Share on other sites
VBLUE42 Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 Any wire in the proper location will work. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
