ctheodores Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 I have a 2012 jetta that I just put my D3 into. I forgot the password to the unit and can't remember what it is. I was looking at newer non-navi units. I was just wondering if my bluetooth and handsfree and ipod cable will be able to plug in to the newer units on the back. Did they get new connectors? Also would I probably need another dash kit or are they all the same since the one I would be getting is a double din A unit such as the avh-p1400dvd Quote Link to post Share on other sites
VBLUE42 Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 The Bluetooth will but the iPod cable wont. You should be able to use the same dash kit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ctheodores Posted February 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 how about the wiring harnesses? do they change in the newer models from the D3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IAmSuperBleeder Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 from what I've seen, many, if not most, pioneer units use the same black plug, with the nav/dvd player units having the extra white plug with all the video ins and outs what I'm curious about though; you forgot the password for what?

VBLUE42 Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 He bought a used unit with an antitheft password on it and is now locked out of his unit. The only way to fix it is to send it to Pioneer and pay them 200 bucks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ctheodores Posted February 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 I'm pretty sure before when I went to enter that password it didnt only give me 3 trys. now it is saying i need to shut the car off and try it again. When my new unscratched 100MT map CD comes in I will try entering all my pets names again to see if that part is just corrupt after removing the power from one car to another. I also have the remote and it says NT under the DVD (which I guess means the CD is corrupt). There is no way to hard reset the D3 to factory using the remote is there? I see a format option but I am scared I will brick the unit if I mess around with any of this.. Awaiting on good CD for now. Id rather spend the money on a new unit then send this old one to pioneer for 200 bucks just to get it working again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
VBLUE42 Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 There is no way to hard reset the D3 to factory using the remote is there? There is a thread buried deep somewhere here that details a way to possibly reset the unit if you have a password failure. There are several post from me in this thread but I don't remember the title. If I remember correctly, as long as you have the remote, there is a back door procedure to get the password reset. Start doing some hard core searching in the D series forum and good luck. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
