I have an Avic-D3 installed in a 2007 Jeep Commander and im loving it. All of the functions work great except i have one little problem. The audio from all functions (radio/ipod/dvd/etc.) fades in and out. This isnt a huge fade at all but its noticeable and is driving me crazy. Could this be an installation problem or a hardware problem or what? I would love to get this taken care of so any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

hmm i would guess that you used some kind of interface with it? do you have the boston/infiniti system? i would guess its the interface

i do have the boston system, and i used this: http://www.crutchfield.com/S-FiVytv3JAI ... =120CHTO01

 

i wanted to retain the use of the factory amp and that was the way to go. Do you think its a faulty interface or did i get the wrong one or what?

any advice for me?

if you really notice the volume fading it may be some stupid speed controled volum built into the amp.

i posted yesterday about my chrysler dodge interface woes.

 

my only suggestion is to bypass the amp! i do think it will make a huge difference and i can gaurantee the pioneer amp can push your factory speakers great!

but if i bypass the factory amp wont i lose the factory sub? i want to try to keep everything as stock as possible. I just realized i hooked up both sets of rca's where i was only supposed to hook up one (front stereo outs to rear harness ins. I think i hooked up the fronts to fronts and rears to rears. would that make a difference?

i figured it out finally! it was the harness and inside the little module there is a audio level control screw and with a little adjustment everything is perfect! thanks for all the help!
