this video is a diy for installing a Pumpkin Android based stereo in a 2009 to 2014 F150 series trucks. While this install didn't go as smooth as I hoped it would we still managed to make it happen. The wiring harness in the kit was dead on except for a power wire that we needed to find a ignition on source to make it work. The pumpkin android stereo was a bit bigger than the install kit so the frame needed to be grinded out a bit to make it fit

I like how you installed it cleanly. No cutting of wires, and it didn't even look like cutting of dash. Good job
Pro tip: take a picture of everything before you take it apart, it makes the re-install process much easier
EXCELLENT job clarifying which wire you tapped for ignition hot.....
I know I’m late to the party but thank you so much, I’m installing a radio for some subs and this helped a lot
Pro-tip: disconnect the negative battery terminal before you ever work on anything electrical in the vehicle. Otherwise, you may find yourself buying a dash, windshield, and airbags. Speaking from experience - a dealership I worked at had a mechanic installing a radio that didn't disconnect the negative battery terminal before beginning the job. Repair manuals usually advise to disconnect the battery negative battery terminal before starting any job.
Yea I've attempted it without disconnecting the battery and i can vouch that you will definitely see fireworks if you bump something🤣🤣. It scared the crap out of me when it happened.
Oh! One thing I did forget. The kitchen sink LOL no seriously the whole purpose here was to say for a few more dollars just get a professional or someone who knows exactly what they're doing so that you don't run into an extended length of time without the radio and then understanding. I would have been better for me to just pay somebody to do it. The problem is I got such a large variation in prices. Just to put in a aftermarket radio that I already had the parts alone such as the interface and the adapters or literally double and even triple the price of what I could buy them from Crutchfield or right away I could walk into Walmart. Which by the way I spoke to someone like Crutchfield last week and she was extremely knowledgeable and was able to give me a price right away. I thought at the time it was probably a price that I could do without. But by the time I put my time plus the cost of the materials, I probably would have been better off with the Crush
Great job love your videos
Thank you! This helped a lot because I had the same problem with my headunit. I installed it and had no power.
If a person spent the money and got a canbus controller you wouldn’t have this issue
@@TestDontguess what wire did you tap into?
I recommend getting the can bus harness. From experience I’ve messed up my electrical system trying to splice wires for the ignition. It’s a lot easier just to use the use canbus harness even tho it’s super expensive.
Like so ppl can see what wire he taps into. Use the White and yellow line wire, NOT the white and purple line. If you tap into the white and purple for your setup you will drain your battery.
I used a t-tap on the blue wire from the hazard light connector to the red wire on the radio
@@Beaksterboy Blue hazard wire worked for me .Thx Beaksterboy
Thanks
I don’t have a white and yellow
@@traceowen5316 use blue wire from hazard lights or 4 way light
Thank you for your video!
Look into running a wire from the passenger's side fuse box. They vary mine was for a 2009,2010 model and it is fuse# 41 however, rather than going by a number go by what the description on what the fuse powers. Mine says : Automatic dimming mirror, door lock switch illumination, RADIO ACCESSORY DELAY.
This allows my stereo to stay on even if I take the key out and is delayed for a specific time that can be programmed in your vehicle's settings or if I open my door (key out ignition) it shuts off immediately. Good luck with your install👍
This worked for me. Thanks for the tip!
Where exactly did you get this harness? I feel like i have the same one, and the same truck but the pins on the harness dont like up with the pins on the truck piece. Any help would be greatly appreciated
Yeah your the Goat bro I was wondering why the screen wouldn’t come on
On a 2011 F-150 the White w/ Orange stripe wire on A/C panel worked for me for Power
@@jassyatwal530 yes. Defrost doesn't work when radio is on though. Need to fix
I just now finished my retrofit of the same radio with the same dash configuration. Here are some important things you might want to know. Firstly, I am a lifelong field engineer, a component level technician for a marine electronics company. I know how to use a multimeter and I could not find any 12Vdc line that is zero with the key off and +12Vdc when the key is in the second position (ACC or Ign on). I went to the fuse box located on the passenger side and found fuse 29. If you go this route it very easy to do. You will have to buy a mini (not micro--even though the size of the fuse is a micro--a micro will not work here) add-a-fuse from an auto parts store like Pep-Boys or O'Reily. And then run that wire to the ACC wire. Then it works perfectly. The radio is too big to fit in the opening on the supplied bezel but there is a frame that comes with the radio which I did use. I had to fiddle around with the distance the radio pertrudes out so that the bezel with be flush with the frame of the radio. It looks good actually. If you buy the camera, there is not enough cable to go all the way back to the tag. I didn't want to mount mine there anyway. So I
mounted it in the back window pointing aft. Use the gps and the wifi antenna that comes with the radio. Sit next to your house and allow the wifi to see your equipment and login. Then go to Navi and allow google maps to download. It takes a while.
or get a Canbus Controller and then you won't have this issue
Is fuse 29 a 12 volt?
@@spade304: well, fuses are rated in amperes or amps for short. A 3 amp fuse is adequate.
Good explanation video sir!
This is a prrtty good video 👍 However I had the same problem as many of you here asking questions . I was a little dissapointed at the creator of the video for not responding to any questions on here as he seems to know what he's doing.
Well, bottom line is that after researching I figured out that he would not have the correcr answer anyway, this due to the different variances in models and years. Depending on the model and year Ford has changed wiring and fuses around and the diagrams change. I had to look hard at mine from a couple of youtube videos as the advise on the comments on here ended with me having a constant hot wire which means you might leave the vehicle forgetting to shut off the stereo which will eventually drain or kill your battery. Other advise, i got a hot with the key to the on position but had to be on all the way as if to start the vehicle and also when I shut off the truck if it was running my stereo would shut down immediately :(
I did finally find a fuse to allow my radio to work just like the original factory. I will post another comment and make it short. Thanks you all for trying to help👍
The proper way would be using a Canbus controller would fix all those issues if a person wanted to spend another 100ish dollars
@@TestDontguess Cool. I'll look into that. Thank you 👍
The stereo is working good
I haven't left any comments in a long time it looks like there was some changes so I hope I got in the right spot. What would it thumbs up but I don't know if there was a rush on time but it sure seems like the most important parts in something like this or the details and in this particular case you had a very good point about the getting your heat shrink shrink wrap cut or pre-cut and so on so that was all great but if you're somebody like me that has only used the old school methods of putting a stereo in which would normally be a single DIN and I didn't have a whole bunch of wires so until we got into amps and things like that and building on to the amps and so on did we have a whole lot of wires to deal with. But in this case I would love to go to Ford and shake the hand of whoever or whomever put this together. It truly isn't a DIY task to take on unless you're a little younger than I am and haven't been out of the market for several years. So my plan was well not only did my first radio go out and I tried everything including the rebaking. that would be model B in the F-150 XLT 2011 . I finally decided that I would take a leap of get another radio from somebody that I had spoken to online. As far as I can tell that radio is fine but it does not work in my truck and that's when I noticed that there was a possibility it wasn't getting power to delete harnesses so I decided regardless I would just go ahead and purchase a double din with the touch screen and all the harnesses that were necessary as well as the interface to keep the steering wheel controls as well as the speed reduction or speed Sound Reduction. When you slow down at like a red light or stop sign and this volume goes down. Just in case I wasn't clear. I hope this is starting to make sense. I'm not trying to be overly detailed that I'm not trying to cut myself short in getting to the point. Yes there's actually a point at the end. LOL as I begin to digress I noticed that I didn't have any fire or any power going to those horses. The main harnesses that carry the power. I really didn't notice that I didn't have power there until I was taking the second original model B unit out. That's what I noticed that I wasn't getting the power. Checking fuses, I've checked them numerous times on both sides and going ahead and changed out many of them. The other thing is and if somebody's reading this and they can see the note or the question is there a relay specifically for the stereo system? Because I think there's like five fuses that go to the radio system. Anyway even purchasing the harnesses and all of this the interface then you wire in case I bypass the harness that I just purchased and went with a wire to the fuse box and then I'll be sort of defeating my purpose. Then I begin to throw something out of line even though that's the way we used to do it but now this is so much cleaner if we can just determine how the different harnesses are supposed to go and so on because I actually have the large harness that I could attach my interface with and it has a couple other harnesses on it as well. Before I start cutting any wires I'm going to double check to make sure I don't have to remove the original stock harness or should I just plug it together and so on well that's all stuff that I'll look into. I think it's a good idea that I read everything I can ahead of time before making any moves LOL. That was probably my most important part of this was that number one by the time I drove out to get the second radio by the time I go out to get the first radio which was the model B which is the nun faceplate and you run into all these different issues and you're even find yourself baking your radio in the oven and you question yourself LOL even though I can see the logic. And thanks for that video by the way but at this point I think the DIY part needs to go into File 13 and I would have been better off bringing it in and having a professional do it. I didn't want to just say that without giving some general reasons. I didn't want anybody who has done these videos the, DIY videos and so on to read this and be offended because I certainly do appreciate as many of you that make these videos. Again thank you very much. Oh and I wouldn't have been able to write this dissertation LOL without some of the things that I've seen on you all's channels so thank you. I'm going to try one more time to not have to run the yellow constant wire to a fuse tap. Or is the red that goes to the fuse top anyway I'll clarify before I go back on. But yeah with you guys not there to help us that are not on our game in that area, with used to be one of my favorite things I mean put in my own systems in my 300s and my Acuras and so on. But they actually made it very easy for us and some of us are overthinking it. So for those who are experts in it please bear with and thanks again to all that help.
You took the ignition wire from the climate control can u tell me the color of the wire bc I'm having the same issue You had but I don't know what wire to use
What’s the color white you taped into? I have a 2009 platinum and I can’t turn the radio like your first try please help me out.
What are the dimensions of the radio? I’m going to install an android radio with a 7” wide face, I’m having trouble finding a faceplate that will fit right.
Im having the same issue with the Power for the ignition on, what color cable did you tap into I cant really see it in the video. THANKS!
What was the wire you tapped in to for the screen and how did you find that out
the ignition on wire from my after market stereo needs to be tapped into which wire?
I have a 2013 with the about 1" tall display at the top and the cd below. My question is about the sync tab at the bottom. I can't seem to pry it out and I don't want to break. Any help would be appreciated.
How do you connect to power so doesn’t loose settings when ignition not on?
Tried everything to get power to my radio. I'm doing the accustik radio. Any tips?
Can't get sound to come out of the radio. Tried connecting the amp wire from the harness to multiple power connections. Nothing. Any ideas?
Can you assist me with the interface wiring! I have the pioneer 1550nex. I have the basics covered what do I do with the reverse gear signal wire and the Navi ones?
Did you figure it out?
What power supply is that for the TS100? I like how sturdy the cord is. The one I stole from an old laptop is fraying.
it's 12 volts
Was this the Sony 10 speaker system with Amp and sub under rear passenger seat. Do all speakers work and is the Amp connected?
what color was the wire u had to tap it too im having the same issue????
What was the ignition on wire color?
Great video thanks for the help......why can't things be easy anymore.....anyways I used the blue hazard wire and have power all the way to the radio but it won't turn on.....OMG what a pain in the ass.
What wire did you tap into? I'm having the same issue.
Good information, where can I see more on removing the traction/hazard buttons out of face plate
Did you figure it out I’m stuck on that to
Hello my friend can you link the adapter for the radio? Thanks
Connect orange and white wire from the ac switch to red wire on radio if the radio doesn’t come on
I want to upgrade my stereo on my 2010 Ford F150 but I have a question would that drain my battery? Since he's going to be using more energy / power than the normal factory stereo
Hi so I bought the dash kit and my radio adapter doesn’t have all the little metal connections is it supposed to to be like that
Your kit didn't come with the black box, the model.. I have the same basic radio. I just ordered a kit.
I'd like to know how to connect the audio. My raptor has a amplifier. Not sure of the connections. Do you know how?
Mine is not powering on, and I spliced the white and red line to tap into that, which did not work. I do not see a wire here that i can tap into to get the power turned on.
Does that wire you tap in is it accessory or constant
Hey was your harness equipped with steering wheel controls???
I like it a lot
What wire did you have to use from the factory harness section for the power? It wasn’t clear in the video. Comments mentioned a red wire from the harness not being used but I don’t have a red wire there. How do I find the right one?
Did you ever find this out?
U just need to find the accessories wire from radio
How do you change the screen above the radio. Mine is stuck showing dvd
Did you hook up a backup camera with your install? How does the head unit know the car is in reverse to switch to the backup camera/
With the reverse signal. Wire. On the stereo
So the existing radio screen will display built ford tough continuously when you remove the radio itself? that's kinda neat
That kinda drives me crazy just knowing that it's supposed to go away with the stock radio.
What size is the radio? 6.2 inch?
What is that other smaller harness for? I’m installing on a 2013 F150 STX and all I have is the big 24 pin connector for the aftermarket harness but don’t know what that other small harness is for. My radio will not turn on either, can anyone help me out? No video I look up is helping.
I’m with you, 2014 STX and even though I have a smaller harness it only has various shades of brown on it. None of which have power. The only place I found a switchable power was the center green wire that attaches to the hazard button.
so i need a new frame for the radio? i can't use the standard one huh
Does the original radio display screen just stay stuck on Built Ford Tough forever?
I have an aftermarket radio in my 2010 f150 and the top dash display is stuck on “dvd”. Not sure how to fix it
What with is the one u had to tap the red wire to??
Its the orange white wire you have to tap into
Will like to see an site to order one
does that pumpkin have car play?
Why dont you show how to get put the hazard button without breaking it? Nice to see the entire install.
How about one that has factory apm and steerling wheel controls?
How do I get my small screen to say F-150 Build Ford Tough? Mine currently just says Audio.
If your talking about the small one where the gages are, if yours is like mine (2009) it won’t say built Ford tough
Good installation Jerry... Now it’s MFBT
What's the largest display that can be put into a 2010 F150 without major modifications?
Cory Alexander I bought a 7” screen and it didn’t fit. I think a 6.2” would fit better
There's double din 10.1 inch ones now.
Which sterio is this screen size? Does it support steering wheel command
applenutz2003 as far as i know the command system in these fords are SYNC. so unless you program the stereo with ford sync i don’t think thatll work.
You connected the red wire with the yellow one to turn on the radio?
Is it safe to connect yellow wire (constant) with red wire?
Where i can order the kit and the digital panel?
Can I use any other stereo brand with double din? 🤔
Yes
Can you explain more in depth how to tap into the red wire you had to fix like the ignitions paper thing?
Power*
I used the blue wire from the hazard light connector to the red wire on the radio
@@Beaksterboy does it disconnect power from the hazards?
@@kylandmeldon3431 that's why u tap into it and not cut it... hazards will still work bro.

White/orange wire coming from the air conditioning unit
Why did it not fit in right?
Did integrate steering wheel controls?
Would love an answer to this question. Has anyone figured out which wire goes to the factory steering wheel controls.
@@loganbritton4093 If you get a wiring harness for all the plugs then you should be able to use the steering wheel controls.

There is no steering media controls on those pick up
The included butt connectors are actually way better. Ask an automotive electrical engineer. I use to think solder was the way to go myself but I’ve had my eyes opened on this. FAA actually approves them on airlines and solder is banned. Solder joints can bust with movement However the butt connection will endure it. Yeah I didn’t buy it at first.
I won’t disagree with you as what your saying is true but I will continue to solder as I’ve never had a issue with soldering wires but I’ve had issues with butt connectors
BSK Garage it honestly shouldn’t be an issue on a passenger vehicle. What opened my eyes was doing a semi tractor once and that fell apart in weeks with solder. I used butt connection and presto it’s still working for him. Hahah I’ve never seen it an issue in passenger cars myself. Just pointing out the truth there that butt connection is not that bad.
Same with marine electronics - per the ABYC code "Solder shall not be the sole means of mechanical connection in any circuit.”
What color was the ignition wire that u tapped into in the other plug?
I don't know if anyone else needs it... I took it from the AC plug. In my case it was WHITE with an ORANGE STRIPE. There will be two white/orenge stripe wires, you will need the one which closer to the center of the plug

Does this require anything for the antenna or the controls in the steering wheel??

Can I not install the GPS, and just run my phone's Google Maps through USB
I know this is a 4yr old video but the fitment is usually the reason most 12v professionals WONT install these universal android radios, cuz they fit like crap. Also that truck is technically a canbus data turn on radio hence the reason for a data module. You won't have a dimmer and reverse wire at the radio hole either, THATS why you use a data module
That is correct, there was no canbus module available at that time of install

Get a can bus harness for your model. Don’t try to tap into any wires it will mess up your electrical system.
The wire he tapped is on the heater controls and is always hot. It's the white and green wire.

Same problem.
@@bryanspanglerracing4574 I didn't want to cut any wires so I just went to the fuse box on the passenger side and ran new a new wire into a pre-existing fuse that also turns on with ignition.
I used 16 gauge wire. Check fuses 37-38-39. It's going to be one of those. You will need one of those fuse tap adaptors. I got some off amazon
Putting the radio into the dash is self explanatory. Wiring the ignition and illumination wires is not, where do we run those two wires and where should we run our ground wires?
For everybody asking i can confirm at 7:35, he wires the red (ACC) wire from his stereo into the white&orange wire from the air conditioning unit. This will let the stereo turn on and off with the car.
