GEX-P20HD Radio --&-- AVIC X930bt Hookup!

Hello all. This is my first thread but I wanted to say thank you for hosting this forum... I've already found a lot of useful information here.

 

I purchased a Pioneer AVIC-X930BT and a Pioneer GEX-P20HD.

 

I am wondering if I can connect the Yellow Fused wire from the HD radio and connect it to the Yellow 12v Batt/Memory wire from the harness and the radio yellow wire.

 

When I spoke to the support tech at Pioneer, he said "You should be able to do that". I don't like the "should" part of that sentance.

 

My only concern with this is the fact that the HD radio yellow wire has a 2amp inline fuse on it and I wasn't sure if connecting that, with the harness yellow and the head unit yellow would be okay.

 

Has anyone else done this? Just looking for some reassurance since Pioneer couldn't confirm a solid yes or solid no!

 

 

 

Thanks in advance!

yeah that HD module doesn't pull that much current so it should be fine.

Again with the should word...... lol

 

Will give it a try. I guess worse case I blow the fuse or burn up the radio wire...

if you're not confident, then just run that wire all the way to the battery post.

I just hooked up my 920 to the head unit yellow wire and it works fine.
