MPS Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 what why me i just told you to grond the hand brake wire Okay, I'm electrically inept. I can make sense of what to do with wire #2 -- there's a picture for crying out loud. But, grounding the light green wire has me stumped. After I remove it from the clamp, how do you "ground" a wire. Do I need to mount it to the body/frame? Thanks. And yes, mazdaspeed, this is the "rookie" again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

djmixmac Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 What about us Z1 owners? We have the bypass but need updated maps.... ahhh shucks $250 bucks for the map updates Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JasonH Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 Glad you guys finally got a solution! Great work everyone! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
brandon Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 UPDATE: Well, after successfully installing the software, I decided..... "eh, what the heck, lets see if I can do the wiring and stuff on my own." Now, mind you, the wiring isnt something that I was afraid of. I do that stuff every day at work. It was the thought of ripping into my pretty new 07 Camry SE that had my dingaling shriveling like it had just met a glass of ice water. But I threw caution into the wind, found the service manual for my vehicle (thank you TN.com), hit up DB's site, and viola, presto chango, abracadabra.... it worked. I was able to search, watch movies, and all that jazz while moving. The search while moving is REALLY going to come in handy. So, once again, Hyper.... you are the proverbial shit my man. Big thanks! And ive got that fifth for ya if you're ever in the Omaha area. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

What program did you use to burn the file? Also, did you have the ebrake engaged? Or, do you already have the two wire bypass done? If you have a z2, which you said you do, then you DO NOT need to unlock the drive. Also, if the software was burned correctly, you dont actually have to press any buttons when you install the disk. Mine read the disk, then started the whole process on its own, I only had to press the yes button a couple times. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
whtcrxghst Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 Press Map before you put the CD in Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I just finished reading this forum and immediately downloaded the file and burned it and installed it on my Z2... and you know what???? IT WORKED ON THE FIRST TRY! this is awesome! it turns out that the guys who installed my Z2 for me already did the 2 wire bypass because it works!!! This bypass came right on time, I'm driving to orlando on Friday! yaaaaaaaaaaay! again, THANKS! now, you know what would be pretty cool? if there was a way to copy MP3's to the hardrive and get them to play so that we can store more music.... any ideas?

eramos70 Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 Thanks Hyperite, and everyone involved in creating the image files making our units bypassable. I've downloaded the image and will try it this weekend. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KillaICM Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 Amazing. I still have not bought a Z2 because of not having a bypass. Now I will and am going to pay up the $5.00 I pledged when I get it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
timvan Posted July 24, 2007 Report Share Posted July 24, 2007 Is there a wire in the harness of the z2 that needs to be grounded or do I have to pull one out from another location?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
