      What if your vehicle is turned off but your stereo is still on ??
      And if sometimes the same stereo automatically turns on by itself when the vehicle is turned completely off

      I have the 7018b radio backup camera. mine's has the Orange and black wire, what does it get connected to? And it also has a brown and pink wire what are those get connected to? I think the pink is reverse for backup camera. But the brown wire, I have no idea!

    Nice video, would like to say if you used your crimp tool correctly, the wire would not pull out, you needed to turn the wire 90º when you made the second crimp to curl the terminal joints around on themselves

  • @randallsimonsen1907
    @randallsimonsen1907 2 роки тому +3

    Good advice. I would argue about useing the wrong tool to crimp, try a ratcheted model that crimps two points at the same time against a third, if you find you must buy tools dont, just use the butt connectors with solder in them and heat with a disposable lighter or even a hair dryer, this also eliminates the need for any added tape as the outer silicone shrinks and is far better, not to mention it is very easy to use even for someone who has never solderd.

      That vehicle requires an interface for this very reason, unfortunately neither are very cheap. Here is a link to them: www.qualitymobilevideo.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=Lan29

    Great video, simple and straight with complicated terms or such. Only real complaint is why run the annoying background music during video, people like me with hearing problems sometimes cant hear the voices well because of the background music. Apart that one annoyance, a good simple straight forward video

      Replacing a factory radio? Aftermarket amps? Steering wheel controls? Or stock change out?

    2020 here, last few radios I've had were just straight wire this to that wire there, no fuses or filters. He did answer the blue wire question, as I think what my car is doing is using the ant power wire from the aftermarket radio to turn on my factory amp. I have the ISO connector and there are three unused pins on one side. And I grounded the park wire to an extra ground on the harness. Using posi-taps to join the wires and velcro wire wraps to tidy it up.

      Metra manufacturers adapter harnesses, worst case is you swap the plate for an aftermarket one.

    Great video, thanks! My Q: I've bought an aftermarket mulltimedia which doesn't have software solution to not to turn on 10 seconds after engine starts but only starts in same time with the engine, which steals too much of battery power during each engine start. Now, to be able to manually turn the multimedia on, should I install the manual switch to the constant power wire or to accessory wire (to maintain memory of device but to stop it turning on with the engine) and should I install an according fuse for that switch line please? Thanks again!

    • @Qualitymobilevideo
      @Qualitymobilevideo  Рік тому +1

      You would need to put the switch on the accessory. You should not be having a start issue with the vehicle when the radio is on, it draws only a tiny amount of current. You likely need a new battery.

    I’m doing an aftermarket head unit for a 2017 Nissan Rogue. It is equipped with Nav and Bose/ factory amp so I’m using the Maestro RR interface. I’m getting no power to the HU however. The instructions read that there are 2 wires (CAN L and CAN H) that need to be connected to a 16 pin harness that is located behind the glovebox. Would those 2 wires prevent the aftermarket from turning on? Crutchfield said they wouldn’t but I feel that they would? Any help would be appreciated.

    So there's a ground wire coming from the aftermarket harness and another ground wire coming from the stereo head's harness, do I connect the two together or do I ground them both to the car chassis? If I do ground them to the car chassis is it okay to use the same ground for both of them? I'm currently getting terrible static and I think it might be because I connected the two ground wires together, but I'm not sure, any help would be cool!
