HOW TO INSTALL SCREEN WITH CARPLAY ON HONDA ACCORD 2008-2012 | UPGRADE

- If you want to upgrade the look of your car this is definitely the way to go. When you complete the installation you connect to the screen you can do either wired or wireless. The code on most bluetooth screens is (0000) or (1234) if it is not in your manual. If you are not going to be using car play make sure you get a gps antenna and connected to the port that says gps antenna. In this video I didn’t have it but i will be installing it soon and will upload the video.

Did your best trying to explain appreciate it
Go under settings you'll be able to program the buttons on the steering wheel control it's a bit tricky but it worked. I had similar unit for my 07 accord that uses z link
When I did it and tried using one of the buttons for volume it changes the radio down belows mode to fm am etc etc
Where did you go in the settings for this?
@@mudhutproductions7868 well idk if he is gonna answer but I'm about to go on lunch in the next 30minutes....I could check n tell u as I forgot

Great video
Thanks!
I had the same one. Very good and reliable(since it is screwed to the dash)
Should I install into 2011 accord?
@@ericklopez4147 it works for those 2011 accords without the NAV
how where you able to mount the new screen in?
@@luismagallanes9174use the attached plastic frame, screw the screen to the frame and then screw the frame to the car.
@@ericklopez4147yes. It will work
Hey I got the same unit as your. But how do you use the built-in mic to make phone calls instead of using the mic that came along with the unit?
Did you ever install the back up camera? Do you have a video on how to use the settings ?
I installed the backup camera following some videos on UA-cam, you may need to set some camera settings in the headunit, like 25hz. Overall, It is quite easy.
Dose anyone know where the wires plug into if u trying to install an amp
At the end when you say connect white and red aux cord to radio it has 2 connectors like your did but I can’t find where they go
If you checked on minute 11:38 i show the power cable which come with the 2 male bananas and connect to the rca input harness that has the same red and white females for audio out the white and audio r the red
The reverse camera is waaay trickier it is on his channel as a seperation vid but i would just recommend getting your local tech guy or Best Buy guy to install it they do charge about 120 for the install or more depending on complexity unless your real into this stuff like he obviously is
its not that hard. camera was pretty easy im having issues getting sound to come out. i have a 2008 ex-l coupe and it has a factory amp.
i installed mine today, and although it connects to bluetooth it won’t play any music. the radio and other options work fine from the little bottom screen. when i try to do anything besides linking the carplay screen it, it says “please use hfp profile” or something like that. the aux also makes a static noise, but i’m going to fix that by putting it through the center console. do you know what’s wrong?
Have you connected more than 2 devices because in my case i have to connect my phone and erase my wife’s and viceversa when we use the car because i get the same message
Is there a way to add zlink to the Home Screen?
The audio cable has one red, one white which you connect to the carplay but then the two gray connectors on the other side which is 7 and 8 on the package description, where dp i connect those? I cant find where. Pls help
If the 2 connector come from the same harness there are the aux. when you disconnect the original radio there is one connection for the aux. this is like the extension meaning one grey connector connects to the original radio the other to the one coming out if the car(make sure you didn’t push it down in the car when disconnecting everything). And then the 2 banana cables that goes to the headunit. Hope it helps.
Need help i have the same unit but my steering wheel control is not working
I have a 2008 accord as well. Did all the plastic trim and harness come with the radio?
It comes with the plastic for the screen, the trim to put the original screen in the bottom and all the harnesses.
What magnetic bowl thing was that you were using for the screw mah boi?
Its a Pittsburgh magnetic bowl from harbor freight
How has this unit held up for you so far? Is it responsive or laggy?
Was about to go with a BOSS unit with that dash kit that removes the buttons .. but the position is so awkward. Now considering this, even though it seems to be a generic China brand.
@UnArmedFilms4U i think its a great unit. I’ve had zero issues with it. Bluetooth works good, the backing camera has been really helpful, you can have any apps you want. I personally recommend it. I have like it so far 👍🏽
What is the brand and model of this cos I cant find it anywhere and Im desprate cos usb dont work with usb c phones

Just finished installing mine. Now I gotta learn what it can do. The bluetooth range is aweful though
That is great man 👍🏽
@@backontheroaddiy is the Bluetooth range kind of short on yours also? I can't exit car with phone and music continues
No I haven’t had any range problems in mine is actually pretty good. What happens in mine with the bluetooth is that if i try to connect another phone i have to erase mine because it would keep connecting to mine.
@@backontheroaddiy hm thats odd, I didn't check if there was a Bluetooth antenna before I put it together either...Did you update anything on the unit? Because I can't even get Google play to sign in, zlink doesn't pick up my phone(I have no clue what it's for but I tried and nothing)
No I didn’t have any issues i connected it to wifi to download offline maps and then i put my email in google play and everything went smooth. You should try to contact the manufacturer
Like my radio doesn't work and want to know if you still can hook up with out radio working
If your aux work then it will work no problem
I bought the same unit as you did, but I have no audio. It did come with that brown harness connector in your video at 14:14 minutes but my stock unit don't have that cable.... not sure how to get sound.
If you have aux in your stock you should have it. Check if it didn’t got pushed back reconnecting everything. This harness connects to the original aux harness from your radio and connects back to the radio and the only thing that you get from this extension is the 2 banana connectors that connects with the headunit so you can get sound through aux. so its like the extension for the little screen that shows the time that gets moved from top to the bottom, just that in this case the extension is use to get the 2 banana cords to connect with the head unit.
I'm running into the same issue!
Do you also only have 3 harnesses? One goes to the console (sound), one is an antenna, and one seems to be identical to the top (mini screen)?
@@jamesvoertman3129 Hello, I am running into the same issue currently, were you able to get around this issue?
@alexcastillo658
Short Story: In my case. I needed a base radio (single CD no-nav). That radio used all the available cables with no "extra" slots left open.
Full story: I went from a double din aftermarket that sat where the interface console went. When deciding to get this dash setup, I ordered a console (6CD no-nav) and installed it. No sound and I noticed it had "extra" ports available. After more youtubing, I discovered I needed a lower model of the radio (single CD no-nav). Ordered one off ebay, installed, worked immediately.
Does anyone know how to set up apple carplay on this specific unit?
Hey how does XM Radio work with this? Can you play it off the unit, or just press the xm button on the dashboard and play it off your stock radio installed at the bottom? Thank you.
Yes just play it from the stock radio 👍🏽
Okay perfect, thank you for your help, take care. Bye. @@backontheroaddiy
👍🏽
I am wondering if I should upgrade. After seeing this. I thing I should. Is XM radio still a option?
Yes you will still be able to use everything from the stock radio. This would be like your Bluetooth that would access from aux.
The audio through car play is very quiet when i tried to change the radio. Any fix for this the radio unit it is a perfect fit so i would think a stereo harness is unnecessary
I had the same problem my radio was very low because i never increased the volume on the tablet from the left + touchscreen sign i know its funny but it happened to me too lol
@@backontheroaddiy i tried increasing the volume on the tablet. It was maxed out.
Do you have any static / hiss from the speakers when no music is being played? Any insight is appreciated :)
I did not . What i got was the controls from the steering wheel weren’t functioning but it was because the wires were getting smashed by the plastic trim but when i fix it it has been working no problems
Ground loop issue, common in car audio, just means you have a poor ground somewhere.
If it existed prior to installing this it might be a headunit issue, the preamp can produce static as its going out. If this only appeared after installing it means one of the grounds have a poor connection.
Also why does my screen is still on with the car off? Where is getting power from
Hey my FM and AM Radio is not working after installation 😢
The fm on the unit will not work. You will have to use the original
Hey there tried to find this head unit on ebay but couldn't. Can you gove me the name of it.. amazon has so many all look identical but price varies alot. Thanks a bunch

Do you have a link to buy one of the cable entension from the original screen to lower it I can’t find one anywhere.
Contact the seller and let them know it is not long enough. They will send you one.
@@backontheroaddiy the one I bought didn’t come with a extension
@@backontheroaddiy do you any links or something for a new cord
I would contact any seller that provides that harness on theor headunit on ebay and buy it from them. I’ll search around if i find a link i will let you know.
The aftermarket screen works perfect but the old screen on the bottom now doesn’t turn on 😢 problem with the extension? But wouldn’t that mean the mew screen shouldn’t be on as well?
The harness to the screen has nothing to do with the extension for the clock screen. Some come together as a unit just to keep it simple but they are 2 different connectors. I would say its the extension. When you have everything out turn on the car to see if it works. A lot of times the extension is too short and when you put everything back because its under tension the extension gets pulled and gets disconnected. If that its the case you have to play around with the wires so that when you assemble everything the extension have a little bit of play so its not pulling. Also put it back to stock to check that the screen its not damaged. It’s very unlikely to happen but it can.
What's the radio code did you use for the 08 accord
8888
I think it should be on your manual . Different cars have different code.
brother i have same product like u have but mine has no sound i do my best but still not working
Brother some cars have an amplifier and if it is not getting power you will get no sound. Look on the back of the head unit to see if you find an amp wire. Usually it is going to be blue with a white stripe but make sure because the radio antenna is also blue. If with you were giving extra set of harnesses check them too because a lot of time one is for cars without amplifier and the other one has the extra amp wire. When you find it connect it to a positive from the OEM harness that would a red wire you can use a t trap to make it easier. That should give power to the amplifier and you should be getting sound. 👍🏽 also check that you put the radio code too i know it is too simple but under stress sometimes we forget to check the most simple thing. Good luck and let me know if you get it to work.
The radio that moved from the top doesnt turn off when relocated, it's plugged into the extended harness but still nothing 🤔any reason this might be?
Test it before putting it in its new location meaning with the radio out turn the car on and see if it works. If it does and when you put everything in its place it doesn’t. It may be that the harness its too precise in length so you have to play with it because its getting disconnected when you put everything in place. sometimes they are very precise in length and when it gets disconnected when put back together. Also check that the harness is not getting jammed. But if it doesn’t turn on when you testing it (before put in place) than the harness is bad. Talk to the seller so they can send you a new one. I know it gets tricky sometimes but you got it 👍🏽
@@backontheroaddiy I hate to keep bombarding you😅 but I hooked the OEM head unit to the OEM harness everything unplugged from the new unit and I still had a black screen, do you think I messed shorted something in the OEM harness, I'll head to a radio shop to as well
No worries man lol I like to help. You should check fuse 18 which is a 7.5amp in the fuse box by the driver side to the left of the gas and brake pedal. Check that before you go to a shop (it can get expensive lol).im pretty sure that will fix it. Also, if that fix it remove the t traps and connect the wires directly. T traps sometimes get a loose connection and causes misfires giving you a blown fuse. I know you got it just give that a try and you will be good.
what is the screen he bought?
Can I have a link to this plug and play deck to purchase?

Have you had a problem with a fuse blowing out or dash buttons light not working?
Whats up Julian. No man i never had a fuse blown because of the head unit. You should check the the butt connectors if you use any. If you did and find it a little loose, get rid of it and connect wire to wire and use heat shrink tubes instead.
@@backontheroaddiy what about the dash lights? Do they still turn on at night? I saw a comment on a video that they stopped working. Thanks for your reply
No problem brother and yea the lights work fine the only issue i really had was my steering wheel controls sometimes don’t work properly at first i thought it was an issue with a wire so I redid everything to make sure everything was good, and it was working fine for a week and then it started again. What happens is that when i press the volume up from the steering wheel it would change to fm that is all so i got used to use the volume straight from the radio lol.
@@backontheroaddiy I’ll order mine soon. Where did you get yours?

When i connect the radio some how the screen touch is not working. Cant do anything to the screen. Any idea any one?
If your touchscreen is not working you should contact the manufacturer and have them send you a new one.
I have this same one, hooked everything up and Is it just me or the power cord in the back of the screen isn’t working? or maybe its the screen
Do you get any image at all?
@@backontheroaddiy no, I actually hooked everything back to what it originally was and now my radio won’t work, and my clock won’t turn on at all
Does it ask you for a code? Because the original radio when you take out the power and then reconnect it will ask you for a code.
@@backontheroaddiy its not turning on at all, maybe a fuse blew or something? imma get a new fuse today
Sounds like blown fuse
My volume starts on full blast when starting the car. Anyone know what the issue is?

I did everything in the video but now I don't have a radio my old radio stopped working the buttons with lights and everything now I can't know what I did wrong, help me please
If everything is connected right i would double check just to be sure because the radio should work, make sure you have the correct radio code and check the fuse box maybe there is a blown fuse.
@@backontheroaddiyI put everything as it comes from the factory in my car but now the radio does not work, the fuses are good but the radio stopped working
If the fuses are good and everything is connected how it is supposed to i would say the harness that connects the radio its bad. Contact the seller to see if he can send you one .
Also disconnect the screen and connect the radio back to the stock and if it works it is definitely the harness or the screen itself.
I bought a new radio, I hope this time I get the whole connection right.

Thank you for tutorial! I just received my unit but need a little guidance with some cables.
Do you have an instagram or other platform where I can message you to show you what I’m talking about?
Sure I’ll help you. I don’t have social media but you can ask me through here or leave your number and i will contact you.
@@backontheroaddiy I’m actually in Canada so phone numbers might not be optimal..
But what I'm trying to figure out is what are the 2 bottom cables circled in red for? And do they follow the yellow harness that goes into the oem screen power harness?
Side note: the bottom last cable seems to only be an extension cable, but it only has 2×5 wires on the ends unlike the vellow harness or the second last cable which both have 2×6 wires.

Check after minute 14 in the video that is the extension for aux because the headunit is going to be used in aux so those 2 bananas connect to the unit to give it audio and video.
