I have the same kit in my 04 tsx and recently found some things out. There are secret button functions on the climate control. Like holding the AC button down will change the stick figure to a trucker flap Lady or holding the Dual button will change Fahrenheit to Celsius, holding the Mode button will allow you to change the color of the display backlight color depending which button you are pressing it will atart flashing and when you press drivers side temp will change to Red colors Pass side temp will change to Blue colors and the Fan button will do Green colors you can also mix for Pinks, Purples and so on. I sent a message to crutchfield to see if there were othere button layouts but still no reply from them. Did you guys find out any of these?
I have a 2004 Acura Tsx the car came with an android touchscreen radio with the climate control settings on the screen it stopped working so I needed to replace it found out the same ones cost like $500 and they get shipped out from China which would take months to arrive so instead I ordered a metra dash kit and a pioneer double din head unit do I need to buy this wire harness thing to be able to install my radio? I thought when buying it that it would come with all the wires and everything to plug and play never installed a radio on a car before
Thanks you for showing us how to diy the install using your components. One question does a honda accord stereo work with acura of the same year i have 2004 acura tsx will a 2004 accord stereo work with tsx
13:31 I hate that too. They should make a second dash kit for short chassis radios to get rid of that ugly bevel. I also hate that the LCD screen for the new climate controls is blue. It just clashes with the orange illuminated buttons
You cannchangebthe backlight on the climate control. Hold the MODE button forna few second and it will start flashing then use thebDrivers side temp button to shuffle through Red colors, the Fan Speed button will do Greens and Pass side temp button will do Blues. Hope this helps!
I just installed a plug and play double din radio on my TSX and ever since then I’ve been having issues where the door chime dings constantly and the seat belt light flickers when it’s on also my turn signals. Any idea what that could be?
Hi. Need some help. I’ve got a honda accord mk7 2006. I’ve installed the PAC facia. But the sound isn’t working. I have a factory amp. I just wanted to know why that is. Can you please help
I bought a used 2006 tax with this kit already installed the climate control does not work it doesn’t power on at all and there are 3 wire connector 1 connector doesn’t fit any suggestions is there a climate control fuse that would stop it from turning on also how can I “update the climate control unit “
So I’m experiencing a popping static sound from my speakers on the right side after installing this kit with a Sony stereo double din unit, any idea as to why?
I have a Sony-XAV-AX3200 with the Metra Kit. When I try to map my steering wheel controls the only one that works is the volume up. It wont even let me customize the controls. Any idea what Im doing wrong?
I plugged in and installed everything but when I turn my car on and rev the engine the alternator makes a whining sound the whole time the car drives. How can I fix that ?
I plan to add two 12" inch subs and an amp for them as well as another amp for the mids and highs does that change what radio you think i should choose?

I like it makes it look like the accord euro r interior.
I want to keep my stock radio with aftermarket amp & sub is there a harness to by pass stock amp & the steering wheel controls.
do you have pin out for 6 pin connector which connect to climate control? Or what cable harness do I need for 2008 TSX with DVD? Thanks

So same process if you have a tsx with the navi?
Can you also do a tutorial on the running power directly to the radio like what you talking 42:14
Is the USB wiring for Apple car play Included ?
This needs to happen for the Acura RL so bad!!!
previous owner cut the factory blue plug that’s in the car anyone know what I can do ?
what size head unit can i fit in the metra dash kit
I need this for My 2005 TSX. My NAV has gone crazy, clock stopped working, can’t use heat or air aside from the auto setting.
Door speakers recommendations for a 2004 Acura rsx ?

I would like to buy the wire harness where is the link
What size double din did he use?? 7’ or something
Can install a pioneer avh-4500 with this kit?
For the wiring harness, what difference does it make if you run regular Speaker cables rather than RCA's?
since the TSX has a factory amplifier then you want to send a low level signal to it so you don't damage it.
@@AcuraAudioGarage thanks!
And if you don’t have a factory amp? I have an 04 tsx and I’m pretty sure I don’t have a factory amp
So I’m experiencing a popping static sound from my speakers on the right side after installing this kit with a Sony stereo double din unit, any idea as to why?
Did you use RCAs to connect the radio?
@@AcuraAudioGarage No I didnt
I have a Sony-XAV-AX3200 with the Metra Kit. When I try to map my steering wheel controls the only one that works is the volume up. It wont even let me customize the controls. Any idea what Im doing wrong?
Are you using the AXSWC? and did you hardwire the steering controls?
How are the ac buttons
I plugged in and installed everything but when I turn my car on and rev the engine the alternator makes a whining sound the whole time the car drives. How can I fix that ?
I plan to add two 12" inch subs and an amp for them as well as another amp for the mids and highs does that change what radio you think i should choose?
i have the metra kit
yes I would suggest a kenwood radio as it has the most options for controlling sound something like a dmx709s would work great.
Hey bro would this kit work on an 2006 nav tsx?
yes, it works
Also my sub makes an awful sound when I turn the radio off with the car running
How do I get the ac not to turn on when I put the defroster on
The defroster always uses ac because ac pulls moisture out. Humidified air will fog up your windshield
Thoughts on using alpine type s speakers?
great speakers
My climate control lights don’t work any ideas?
did you connect the little black plug to the climate control? also does the radio dim when you turn on the headlights.
Having the same issue where would I hook up the black cable to?
Why don’t you do the android head unit from china ??
It’s the one I went with and it’s awesome.
do you have the name of it? or link?
thanks.
@@miguelalvarado9842 they also have a better one with the buttons for the Ac and heat control
@@RiQWitDaBliQ Whats it called. or where can you get it?
What can cause my climate control not to work I have same unit.. it was working, now all of a sudden don’t wanna turn on ?
Metra kit is SO ugly.
Unfortunately, that’s the only kit there is for this car for the aftermarket radio to be in the factory location
I would upgrade but I dislike how ugly the Metra sticks out!
I wish we had a better solution!
