    to be honest, this is a good unit. I actually was able to connect my PS3 to it and play some games and Blueray movies on the go, whenever I was taking a break on the highway gas station. However, the interface could be better and they could've done a better job with the updating procedure which can be annoying if you try to update from factory firmware to the latest version. I had to update it step by step before I got to the latest one.
    Well, at least it works now and the performance improvement is definitely noticable

    Just installed one of these in a 2013 juke.
    Works well generally and rally pleased.
    Only problem I have is with the rear camera setting. I can’t seem to get it to come on automatically when I hit reverse when the car is in apple car play mode.
    Any ideas ?

    • @PJsprojects

      I’m guessing your phone os is fully up to date so that would mean the stereo needs a software update.
      This can be done by going on Pioneeer web site and downloading the update.
      Please note they can be slow to release updates so you may have to wait months. Any problems consult your retailer.

      You do indeed and you will also need a different harness adapter to the one in the video. You will need a wire harness adapter with the CAN bus box to allow the Steering control interface to talk to the new radio. Most CAN bis wire harnesses also do ignition live, parking brake and dimmer switch etc.

      Commecting the red wire to the yellow wire will risk draining your battery as power will constantly be going to the new radio. Other option is that it would be better to buy a CAN bus harness adapter which keeps the radio on until the key is removed. Available at incartec.co.uk/

      Be aware, previous owner installed an older pioneer model on my Peugeot 307, 2006 (CAN bus), early models where VAN bus. Although the radio works as expected and nothing particular is noted. There's one major issue on this particular car model.
      You'll loose the steering controls and along with it the access to the onboard computer dash display... That's a major drawback!
      Alternative is an additional interfaces that at this time I believe are >90 pounds! Not something I tread lightly! Particularly considering that the entire car cost was ~300€!!!
      Or get back to the original radio (RD4), which is the interface for the onboard pc display!
      In resume, original radio or additional interface ($$$) your call. ;-) Cheers

    "A 9 out of 10 radio, I'd be happy with that in any vehicle".
    Except you've overlooked one very important feature this radio doesn't come with - a steering wheel controls facility.
    I've had this unit two years now and I realise that especially in my convertible I need steering wheel controls. Unlike other Pioneer units, this one won't allow such controls. Anyone upgrading their radio in a modern car would expect a radio of this cost to be able to do this.
    Why don't you point this out as an experienced installer?

    • @PJsprojects
      @PJsprojects  2 роки тому +2

      Each and every make of car has a different steering adapter needed and each adapter will work with most branded radios such as the DA230, so you will just need to look up the correct adapter for your car or if one is not made use a universal one that can be manually configured.
      I have uploaded a pic to the channels community section that shows which port on your radio the steering remote plugs in to.
      I hope this helps as I rarely reply to questions due to the amount received each day.

    • @appledjerry
      @appledjerry 2 роки тому

      @@PJsprojectsThanks, I really appreciate you replying. A couple of further points may help clarify my earlier frustration.
      The manual for this unit doesn't mention steering controls nor have a diagram of the rear inputs. Only after Googling pictures did I notice a jack socket marked 'WR' and deduced that this was for remote controls.
      I didn't mention this earlier but my Daihatsu Copen doesn't have steering wheel controls so I bought a cheap ebay steering wheel remote which I had naively believed I might pair with my unit.
      I'm now hoping that by linking the two key wires from the ebay remote to a jack plug and insert that into the WR socket, I might just get some operation of the SW remote, even if the buttons are matched wrong.
      If this sounds unviable, could you suggest an alternative please?

    Like nearly all Stereo fitting videos there is virtually no information about the wiring which is the most important part. I cant understand why stereo installation videos skip the wiring and connection part which is the most important by far.

    Hi I have the SPH-da130 and I have got a camera from halfords my mate has wired it up and it works when ignition lights is on when started picture goes off or fuzzy. So he wired a relay in the circuit but it still doing it. Is there a reason why it’s happening or do I buy another Pioneer camera ? Help would be appreciated

      Not something I would be doing as a fitter in all honesty but I would assume it would require a custom image loading on to the bios and then a bios flash to get it working.
