I installed a Z120BT in a customers 05 Escalade and it randomly reboots. Nothing seems to cause it, as it does it at any volume, no volume, and when the vehicle is sitting still. I removed the radio, checked everything, and while it was on I installed it back into the dash, so essentially if there was a loose connection it should have happened, but didn't. I'm using a PAC OS-2Bose harness. Are there any firmware issues that may cause this?

X2 vblue, but I guess it's worth a try, not my money

I've seen a few video's lately of ipad's installed in cars. I'd like to do one, connect to the net with my Droid, then watch the Slingbox at the house from the passenger's seat.

"good" music these days is hard to find..... Rise Against is my favorite rock band at the time, but I can't find much else worth listening to.

Pioneer quoted me around $500 for repair. I'd rather buy something else then spend that much money on this head unit. I tried to open the screen yesterday and the eject button is messed up and it wouldn't open. I'm gonna try to dig it out and see if I can get to the board to get it open. Do you guys know if the LCD module that they sell for $286 comes with the complete faceplate? Any other recommendations?

It's done.....

Don't have the harness, it's still in the vehicle that's not here. I did try to power it up on the workbench, but not sure if I had the right pins. Couldn't find a very good picture anywhere. I used the black plug, top and bottom pins on the inside (top for 12V and bottom for ground), also used the 3rd pin from the inside for ignition. Tried that with power on top, then power on bottom, neither seemed to work. I may call them to get the harness tomorrow.

How can you tell that the LCD isn't broken? Notice the eject button?

I was installing a Z2 for a customer (that luckily was my cousin) and broke the screen. This was going in a new Explorer with very little room behind the radio. As I was holding the head unit up to the mounting holes, I removed 1 hand to get the screws and when I did, my thumb pressed too hard on the screen and it cracked. Not only did it crack the glass, but the LCD is busted too. I found a couple places that repair these, but they're saying $500. United Radio said "send $175, we'll give you a quote, then if you don't fix it, we'll refund $110", or something like that. Basically, I n

A customer of mine just picked up a new iphone 4 and currently has a Z2 with the older ipod adaptor, not sure which one. Is there a new interface for the newer ipods?

Yes, I know you ground 2 wires. You don't understand what I'm asking..... Which 2 wires, which one gets moved? Everything I've found is for the Z1 and this IS NOT a Z1, the harnesses are different. I think it's figured out anyway. Someone should either start a new thread or find the old one and re-sticky it.

I'm trying to do the bypass on a Z2. I've searched everywhere on here, and it keeps bringing up Z1 stuff. In one particular thread, there's a link that says "to do the 2-wire bypass for the Z2, click here". Clicked, and saw pics of a Z1 harness, and absolutely nothing on the Z2. On the Z2, there are no extra slots to change wiring pins, so do you ground the mute wire and the parking brake wire?

Kind of what I figured. The D3 was much better than this crap. I guess I thought there was some false hope of at least part of it being fixed or changed in some kind of update.

Only way to get around it is to power down, then back on. *Reverse camera sometimes stays on 10-15 seconds after it's switched out of reverse, sometimes its faster. *Bluetooth is slow, if it even works.
