Hey guys, ran into a couple problems.

 

1. There's a loud almost whistling sound from my right speakers, louder as i accelerate. Is this a ground issue? The only ground I added, was the D3 to a bolt to the frame. To this wire i wire tapped 3 other wires i needed to ground. was this bad?

 

2. My Vehicle Dynamics screen says not accessible i think, is this my VSS wire?

 

3. How can i check to see if my reverse wire is right? i dont have a backup cam.

 

thanks!

1-recheck your connections

 

2-yes your vss it not hooked up

 

3-you dont need reverse wire if you dont have a camera

1. It's probably my grounds, I will check that tomorrow.

 

2. Actually I found out it was hooked up. That message occurs when you don't have a good GPS signal apparently.

 

3. The instruction booklet says it helps GPS.

 

I found out all of the connection info and stuff can be checked in the Hardware Info menu I think it was.

I forgot, I also have a bypass question.

 

I think it's improperly grounded, but just to make sure.

 

I get an "Incorrect Parking Brake Wire" warning message when I start. When I'm driving and at a stop, the options in the GPS menu are available. As soon as I go, it grays out. Is this how it should be after doing the bypass? Or is it a result of the bad grounding.

 

Also when I go into the connections screen, it says Parking Brake "On" all the time.

your not bypassed. the wire you moved isnt grounded. but your parking brake should read "on" all the time when you are bypassed

That makes sense. I guess my PB is bad too since yesterday it was turning on and off.

 

What about the navi buttons disabling and enabling as i drive? is that normal if correctly bypassed, or is it even normal if i had connected to actual parking brake?

no, they should either be on (if bypassed) of off ( if not) not changing back and forth
