dubs_17 Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 You know, I've been working on this bypass for a couple days. I'm quite seasoned in electronics and installs, and have checked all connections three times over. Everything is done as discussed here, but I STILL get that damn park brake message and I can't watch movies in motion. I belive my Avic is a Feb. 2008 model...did they beat the hack in the newer models, or what?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HiFiSi Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 Nope. There is no change, they didn't change anything and you don't have a special unit or anything. If you do all 3 steps properly, it WILL work. Make sure that you didn't mess up the pin on the mute wire while removing and re-inserting it from the harness, and that it's seated in the harness firmly and in the proper pin position. And make sure your grounds are good and solid. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Phlame217 Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 My unit was manufactured in february and I just did the bypass on it with no issues. Well, I had one issue but It was because the pin that goes in the harness for the mute wire wouldnt stay, so I soldered it in. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wes_robinson Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 ok quick question on the bypass thats been beat to death, the harness that has the mute wire is not installed in my car to the back of the unit, if i ground the park break wire or simpley attach it to the other side of the park break would it still work, i have an 02 elantra. also who know who to set the time zone.

HiFiSi Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 No, you need that AV harness on there to do the bypass, as shown in the pictures/instructions. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wes_robinson Posted August 12, 2008 Report Share Posted August 12, 2008 what about setting the time zone, and also what does that wire go to. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ratspot Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 I succesfully hacked my d3 thanks to this forum . However , grounding the mute switch causes my Onstar when initiated to shut my system off. I have the gmos box hooked up and my radio mute cable comes from that and is grounded. Has anyone fixed this? or is this an incorrect way of doing the hack? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dane186 Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 You moved mute wire should be tired in with your black ground wire on the harness. If you did it correctly, there is no way your onstar should be messing up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ratspot Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 When I move the mute (that is connected to ground)wire do I disconnect it from the other side of the harness that connects to the gmos? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jnel Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 Looks like your mute wire is being used by your gmos to mute the D3. You probably need to move the mute wire back to orig. position like it was. Then move a different (unconnected) wire to the bypass hole. Most setups don't use the mute wire and that is the easiest one to use. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
