I recently installed the app radio 2 (SPH-DA100) and am having 2 problems
1. Cant find the power line to connect the parking break sensor wire (2008 Ford F150)
2. When i go to setup bluetooth the little gear to setup your bluetooth is greyed out.. any one know how to fix this or what i may have done wrong installing it?
Any help would be appreciated.
Did you connect the parking brake wire?
No not yet, I thought that might be the problem, but not sure where on my F150 which wire is the right wire to connect the wire.. I've googed all over and cant seem to find the answer.
didn't you have to active bluetooth phone first, and hold on bluetooth "shortcout" in appradio to launch it ?

Not sure what you mean.. i run the appradio app on the iphone and hit the phone icon on the HU but everything is greyed out..
I think you have to pair it to the Iphone first in the Bluetooth settings on your Phone ...Mine was 0000 pass
Many features are grayed out if the parking brake is not engaged.
Yep, thats what it was, sorry for the post, should have completed the install.

So what did you end up having to do, I am having the same issue
He pulled the parking brake. Maybe you should do the same.

I pulled the parking brake, and I know it is wired correctly because I am able to see video through my phone. I have done a system reset also. Still nothing, any other suggestions??

Why not try wiring a switch into the parking brake wire from the unit then have it go to ground? The system works by pressing the brake once, then release then press it again. A message will pop up prompting you to do all that then you can click ok. Once that's done you can basically do whatever you want with the unit while driving as if your car was parked with the parking brake engaged.
Please stay on topic. This thread has nothing to do with the bypass.

I wasn't referring to the bypass. The reason the bluetooth is grayed out because the parking brake circuit isn't complete or the procedure wasn't completed by the individual; even though it was tapped into it. The circuit for the parking brake must be completed before the unit will even allow map, bluetooth and video functions to be performed.
I understand that but he stated above that he tried the parking brake. He appears to have some other problem.

Call up Pioneer or return/exchange. You have have a software glitch that's causing the bluetooth to malfunction; it's Windows based after all...

Thanks I couldn't get back to the thread fast enough, I called Pioneer and they said it is a defective unit.
