Y'all r doing some amazing work, I wish y'all would talk about the thd and wattage output go into details of the x over and the network mode
Please read this complete answer. There is a ton of information available from Pioneer on the crossover settings in Standard Mode and Network Mode. If you want a detailed look at the crossover settings in Network Mode here is a video: ua-cam.com/video/3t9zCiIGO7M/v-deo.html And this video shows the crossover settings in Standard Mode: ua-cam.com/video/Z86fQryoRVk/v-deo.html If you'd like to learn more about Standard Mode and Network Mode setup, please take a look at this video explaining the difference between the two modes on Pioneer NEX receivers: ua-cam.com/video/PeH_h8UHzBw/v-deo.html and if you'd like to learn more about the crossover settings on Pioneer NEX receivers and how they effect the output of the receiver to the amplifier, please check out this video: ua-cam.com/video/WvJXYh6vk_0/v-deo.html As of 2020 May, nearly all Pioneer in-dash receivers have an internal amplifier named MOSFET 50 X 4. The internal amplifier's RMS output is 14 watts. If you are looking for better power and sound quality, the way you do that is with an external amplifier. I recommend the Pioneer GM-D9705 it's a great choice. It's very flexible for installation design and has tons of power. You can learn more about it here: ua-cam.com/video/99Hfmc8QxVc/v-deo.html You could set up the receiver in Standard Mode or Network Mode and still make great use of the GM-D9705 amp.

I bought a 2011 Mustang V6 and this Unit was in it along with what I'm sure is a specially adapted mounting plate. Honestly, I thought it was the factory unit because the Stereo also controls the A/C and Heat. The OBD2 Connection with access to some Real Time Engine Telemetry is cool too. I don't have the Instruction Manual so emulating my phone hasn't went well. I'm sure I'll figure it out. This Stereo is Solid and Interesting if a bit hard to navigate.
What is the model number of your Pioneer in-dash receiver? If you have the Pioneer DMH-W4660NEX, I strongly recommend to install the latest firmware for the receiver. You can find it here: www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Car/NEX/DMH-W4660NEX#downloads

Hey thanks for you videos. Where do I connect the car speed signal input wire? The reverse rear signal input connects just to the backup camera wire right? Not to the car?
The speed signal input wire is typically connected to a wire off the vehicle's computer. The vehicle then provides it's speed information directly to the in-dash receiver. This is very important for the best possible operation of navigation software in Apple CarPlay and in Android Auto.
Pioneer in-dash receivers are designed to work with the Pioneer ND-BC8 backup camera. I don’t know about the operation of other cameras.
Be sure to plug the Brown camera output RCA into the Brown RCA Input on the back of the Pioneer in dash receiver.
The Pioneer ND-BC8 camera needs power and ground to operate. The camera should always have power when the vehicle is switched on. And the camera should power off when the vehicle is switched off. This is very similar to the way the Red Accessory wire works on a Pioneer in-dash receiver. Just because the camera has power does not mean you are viewing the camera window on the in-dash receiver.
The receiver’s violet/white wire is used to let the in-dash receiver know that the vehicle is in it’s reverse gear and, to automatically open the backup camera window on the receiver screen.
Do not connect the violet/White wire to the camera.
When you put the vehicle in it’s reverse gear, the violet/White wire should sense a change in voltage. This automatically opens the camera window on the in-dash receiver. And closes the camera window, when the vehicle is taken out of it’s reverse gear. One possibly connection for the violet/White Reverse Gear wire is the vehicle’s backup lamp terminal.

If my vehicle has an oem gps antenna, can u use and adapter to plug that directly into this head unit instead of needing to add the pioneer gps antenna?
I strongly recommend to use the GPS antenna that is included with the Pioneer in-dash receiver. The included GPS antenna is designed for inside use and not meant to be used outside the vehicle. In many modern vehicle installations, the GPS antenna can be installed inside the dash, above the receiver, where it is not visible to the driver.

My only concern with this model is the rca/ pre amp out puts. I remember the avic z models 1,2 and 3 had the same ones. And all of them had motor noise issues. I owned all three models and in different vehicles so no it wasn’t installer error. Have you had any issues with this unit pertaining to that?
I'm not aware of any noise issues. Pioneer in-dash receivers are installed around the US and the world. There are more and more reviews of the Pioneer DMH-W4660NEX available from other sources.

Have there been issues with this HU and the Samsung S22 series of phones? I have seen some concerns posted in other areas. I am replacing my 4500NEX (the display glitched out after 1.5 years - more than a little concerning, but it is outside of warranty). Looking for both wireless AA and HD Radio, so it would appear this is my only option unless there are new decks coming out other than the 2770 (which has no HD). Thank you.
In early 2022 Samsung S22 phones with a wired USB connection needed a firmware update to the phone for proper Android Auto operation. The update was issued by Google and Samsung and is working well as of 2022 September. Wireless connections were not an issue. Pioneer firmware version 3.0 or newer is required for best operation.
For HD Radio and Wireless Android Auto, Pioneer has several options:

the instructions say to mount the gps antenna on a level surface like the front or rear dash. but, the unit doesn't have navigation built in so would apple wireless still work by just mounting the gps antenna on the windshield near the rear view mirror?
The GPS antenna is designed to be kept inside the vehicle. I recommend to mount the GPS antenna on or, if the dash is made of plastic, vinyl, immediately under the front dash of the vehicle. Do your best to keep the dash level and in turn keeping the GPS antenna level as compared to the vehicle and your surroundings. The GPS antenna is very important for the proper operation of wireless Apple CarPlay and Wireless Android auto along with many different location based services.

Pinch to zoom ? Multi fingers support?
Could not find it in the manual
If you are referring to zooming in and out on maps when using Apple CarPlay or Android Auto, the receiver is capable of 2 finger touch operation, however, it depends on the app you are using. For Android Auto you can zoom in and out with pinch and un-pinch 2 finger touch on apps like Google Maps and Waze. You can also touch the + or - screen buttons on the app to zoom in and out. For Apple CarPlay it's use the + or - buttons on the Apple Maps, Google Maps, and Waze only with the current version of iOS 13. That may change with updates from Apple for CarPlay.

I can’t get the mounting screws to screw into those holes in the side of the head unit. Why doesn’t pioneer make this head unit with actual threaded holes? What am I doing wrong?
The Pioneer DMH-W4660NEX has 22 mounting holes. That's 11 on each side of the receiver. The mounting screws included with the in-dash receiver fit into each of these screw holes. Each of the mounting screw holes is marked with the letters "N" or "T". In order to protect the sensitive electronic components inside the receiver's chassis, the screws must be 8mm or shorter.

@@deckerdotto6035 Thanks, I went ahead and got one and installed it with help from Crutchfield tech support. I've never had a radio this good, you guys knocked it out of the park with this one. The responsiveness and appearance of the UI is above anything out there. Not having to take my phone out of my jacket to use CarPlay is another level of decadence. You guys rock.
I noticed many products are out of stock. I heard that a manufacturer Plant burned down is that what happened? I want to buy but not available!

Do i need a parking brake bypass to play videos while the vehicle is in motion? I have a 09 tahoe ltz
Pioneer receivers are designed to show on screen videos only when the vehicle is safely parked with the parking brake engaged. If you can't see video on screen, I recommend to engage the vehicle's parking brake. If you have the parking brake engaged and still can't see video, your vehicle may have an incorrect connection to the in-dash receiver's Green Parking Brake Wire. You can learn more about the Green Parking Brake Wire in this How To video from Pioneer: ua-cam.com/video/-bF3uzzaT30/v-deo.html You can find more videos on Pioneer's UA-cam Channel here: ua-cam.com/users/pioneerelectronics
Just got this unit installed today. I'm having trouble getting it working via WIFI. I was able to find it's WIFI signal and connect to it with my iPhone but all apps work only when connected via USB. Can you help troubleshoot? Thanks!
Here is a video with detailed instructions on setting up your Pioneer NEX receiver: ua-cam.com/video/CUrxfgBy2BM/v-deo.html If you still can't connect, I recommend to do a system restore and start the connection process over from the beginning. You can do a System Restore by touching the Settings Gear>Screw Driver and wrench, and scroll down to System Restore, Restore All Settings. This will effectively make things like you just had the system installed. Then start the process from the beginning as shown in the set up video.

Is it required to have a constant Internet connection for Alexa to work?
In order for Alexa to operate, the in-dash receiver requires an internet connection. This can be done through a Wi-Fi hot spot in the vehicle, or by using your phone as a Wi-Fi hotspot.

Hi! Thanks for the video! Can I connect a CD drive through the usb port?
This may depend upon the particular USB CD player, however, typically you'll find the answer to be, no it won't work. The external CD drive may power up when connected to the Pioneer receiver, however, the receiver will not recognize the drive as a usable USB source. In addition, unless you have a CD drive designed for in vehicle use, the CD player will very likely skip and drop playback when you hit any bumps in the vehicle. If you are looking for a way to play your CD's with the DMH-W4660NEX, I recommend to rip your CD's to WAV or FLAC format and, to play the ripped CD's from a USB flash drive. You can see this demonstrated on a similar receiver in this How To video from Pioneer: ua-cam.com/video/KWaYfYk90IU/v-deo.html

So the wireless carplay feature uses wifi? Not Bluetooth? If so, then id have to use my phone as a hotspot?
When using CarPlay, you can consider the in-dash receiver a 2nd screen for the phone. Wireless Apple CarPlay uses a Wi-Fi connection from the receiver to the phone. When this connection is made, all data that is used by Apple CarPlay, for example maps, music, images any data, is delivered to the in-dash receiver through the phone. You don't need to switch on the hotspot setting on your phone. When you use CarPlay, all data automatically passes through the phone. This is part of the Apple CarPlay protocol. As a side note: if you used the wired version of CarPlay, your phone still provides all of the data, it just goes through the USB connection instead of through Wi-Fi. Bluetooth is an important part of the initial connection from the phone to the receiver, however, once a Wi-Fi connection is established, Bluetooth is not used as part of the CarPlay connection.

How do I get android auto to work can't get passed the brake screen when I'm already parked?
You need to engage the vehicle’s Parking Brake in an ON-OFF-ON operation in order to get past the Android auto setup menu. This might also be known as the Hand Brake or the Emergency Brake. If you engage the vehicle’s Parking Brake and still can’t access this menu, the in-dash receiver’s Green Parking Brake Wire may have an incorrect connection to vehicle.

I installed this same product, and I can barely hear my rear speakers. I checked the rear audio output and it is greyed out, any ideas why? I’m using the Maestro rr and the RCH1 t harness.
When you setup the Pioneer receiver did you choose Standard Mode? Or Network Mode?
Is the rear speaker output switched On? Or is it off. You can find this in the Audio Menu.
It’s in network mode, and the rear speaker output is greyed out like I can’t turn it on or off
@@sawyerbrown3118 When using Maestro RR, be sure to check the OEM Settings, and OEM volume settings in the System Menu.
You said you're using Network Mode, this means all speakers are considered to be front speakers and there are no rear speakers. If you put the system in Standard mode, rear speakers will be available.

How do you fix the bug that puts the message "Wi-Fi Connection Established..." on this NEX unit on endless loop every 2-3 minutes?
Please be more specific with your question. What is the model number of your Pioneer in-dash receiver? It sounds like your receiver is disconnecting and reconnecting to Wi-Fi as you drive. Are you using a phone or a Wi-Fi hot spot for your internet connection? Does this behavior happen when the vehicle is stopped? Or only when moving?
I have been holding out and holding out waiting for this line of 6.8 inch units to get the new software update and a 720p screen, my 2600bt unit finally just crapped out on me.

Can you disable Alexa on this head unit?
Yes. Alexa is not required to use the receiver in any way. First, if you don't set Alexa up when you install the receiver, Alexa will never be part of it. 2nd, if you set up Alexa, but choose to use CarPlay or Android Auto, both of those systems disable Alexa, until you choose to change it back to Alexa.

Deckerd Otto thanks for the response. I have this headunit and for some reason, it is not reading my iPhone 8 using a micro hdmi to hdmi and the apple lightning to hdmi adapter. Is there a specific micro hdmi to hdmi cable I should be using? I’ve tested the adapter and it works properly.
What are you seeing on the receiver screen when you have the phone connected through HDMI. Are you changing the receiver's source to HDMI? In order to see video on the screen you need to have the vehicle safely stopped with the parking brake engaged. You can learn more about the Green Parking Brake Wire here: ua-cam.com/video/-bF3uzzaT30/v-deo.html
Deckerd Otto the headunit does not recognize the hdmi cable, as it’s grayed out and I am unable to click on it. I tested the cable with other hdmi devices and the headunit is still not reading it. Is there certain requirements on the micro hdmi to hdmi cable? I suspect this is where my issue is. I used an insignia 8ft hdmi to micro hdmi cable that I just purchased from Best Buy.
I have no experience with that cable. Please be sure to use a genuine Apple Digital AV adapter. A cheaper version of the Lightning to HDMI adapter may not deliver good performance. Here is an inexpensive HDMI to Micro HDMI adapter that works well for me: www.amazon.com/Cable-Matters-Micro-Adapter-Inches/dp/B00JDRHQ58?ref_=ast_sto_dp and I'm using a 6 foot generic HDMI cable.
Kinda weird that the receiver requires a gps antenna Installed for android/apple car play maps. Wouldnt the cell phone gps be enough for the mapd to work correctly? 🤔
Wireless Apple CarPlay and Wireless Android Auto use the GPS data they receive from the Pioneer in-dash receiver. This is because the vehicle's GPS antenna will usually deliver a more reliable and consistent stream of data. Since it's a wireless connection to the in-dash receiver, it's very possible the phone may be in your pocket, or hand bag, or in some other location where GPS is limited or unavailable. If you use the vehicle's GPS, that potential problem is removed.

You can see it here: ua-cam.com/video/B2TTfJUD-es/v-deo.html In order for the Pioneer DMH-W4660NEX to recognize a USB drive it must be plugged directly into the back of the in-dash receiver, or through the provided USB extension cable. Are you plugging the USB drive into the vehicle's factory USB type A Port? If so, are you certain that the factory USB port is connected directly to the new in-dash receiver? If the factory USB port is not connected directly to the back of the DMH-W4660NEX, the receiver will not recognize the USB drive.

@@pioneerelectronics thank you for your response, I ended up solving my issue last night. I had the Usb C to Usb A adapter plugged directly into the unit, then my Usb A cable plugged into the adapter (Basically cutting the Usb C extension out of the equation). I'm not clear why this configuration didn't work but it didn't. It would charge my phone but wouldn't recognize it or a flashdrive.
Once I plugged the Usb C extension cable into the unit, then the adapter, then the Usb A cable it worked. For reasons to long to type I must use the additional Usb A cable which results in +/- 6ft of usb cable shoved in my dash now but it works!
what's the difference between this and the 4600?

Is the AUX female input 2.5mm or 3.5mm ?
The AUX input on the back of the Pioneer DMH-W4660NEX is a Mini-Jack 3.5mm capable of Audio and Video playback on the in-dash receiver screen. Please note the TRS layout of the Mini-jack pin. This is shown clearly on page 7 of the manual here: www.pioneerelectronics.com/StaticFiles/Manuals/Car/DMHWT8600_WT7600_WT76_WC6600_W4660_W4600NEX_INS723.pdf You can find a full playlist of How To videos from Pioneer on the DMH-W4660NEX here: ua-cam.com/video/DatnoXGI96U/v-deo.html You can find more videos on Pioneer's UA-cam Channel here: ua-cam.com/users/pioneerelectronics
How does this particular unit play movies or videos? I'm currently looking to replace a 2005 chevy tahoe head unit with something I can play videos for my 2 yr old daughter while driving.
The Pioneer DMH-W4660NEX will play videos from a USB flash drive. The receiver has a video output for a rear monitor. Please note: when installed correctly, the video will play to the rear monitor while driving but will not appear on the in-dash receiver monitor while driving. The driver can hear the movie but can't see it. And the source inside the vehicle must be USB. There are other options: If you want to listen to music, for example the radio while you are driving and, at the same time have a video from a DVD or from USB playing on a rear monitor for your daughter with headphones for sound, I recommend the Pioneer AVIC-W6500NEX / AVIC-W6600NEX. You can see it here: ua-cam.com/video/sHjhBURFzGs/v-deo.html This is called dual zone operation and allows 2 sources to play at the same time in the vehicle.

Do the steering wheel controls still work with this unit? And can you change the colors of the control buttons?

If you only had this and the Pioneer AVH 4500NEX which one has more to offer?
You can't go wrong with either one. They are both great, however, they are two very different products. The best choice depends on what is important to you. Both work with Apple CarPlay wireless and Android Auto wireless. The AVH-W4500NEX has a 7 inch screen and the screen is detachable face. You can see it here: ua-cam.com/video/-JidsPPVKnA/v-deo.html The AVH-W4500NEX also plays CD/DVD and has an SD Card Slot. The DMH-W4660NEX has a 6.8 inch capacitive glass screen, and it's not detachable. No CD/DVD player or SD Card. The DMH-W4660NEX works wit Amazon Alexa and has some other cool on screen widgets, and a new user interface.

@@deckerdotto6035 So I'm comparing them both through the pioneer website and besides CD/DVD/SD slot and detachable face the only other difference I noticed is that the 4500NEX doesnt have alexa ready to go from the box. I'm looking for a best overall option. The CD/DVD and detachable face doesnt really matter that much to me. So i guess my question is aside from those features which model has more to offer? Does pioneer offer updates to the recevier as well? I really do love the widget display on the W4660 and how customizable it is when not using android or apple auto. What would be your suggestion?
If you don't play CD's and detachable face is no big deal, I recommend the DMH-W4660NEX. I think it's a great receiver with the latest user interface and capabilities. Pioneer publishes free firmware updates to many products. One is available for the Pioneer DMH-W4660NEX.

@@deckerdotto6035 i actually like DMH-5290 BT but i need wireless android auto...
I'll take the aame model but if it offers android auto wireless
Please be certain that Android Auto Wireless is available in India as of 2020 June? This is not up to Pioneer. Google must make Android Auto Wireless available in a region before it will work on any given in-dash receiver. Just because Android Auto with a wired connection is available, does not mean the Wireless version of Android Auto is available in your area.
@@deckerdotto6035 it is available in some higher models for pioneer?
This is the high end model in India: pioneer-india.in/buy/car-entertainment-car-stereos-touchscreen-dvd-players/dmh-zs8290bt/

UA-cam can be played back through the Pioneer AVAssist app or by using the HDMI input on the back of the receiver.
