Hi great vid.. I did a simular mod to my old Suzuki and now my X-type... you can also do this mod and use Audacity to create an 80min silent sound track and burn this to a cdr (literally a cd with a single 80min track with no sound) that way you can still use the cd player if you wish ....no need cut the audio tracks from the cd player ...its how I do it anyway.... only drawback is that you have to remember to keep the 'blank' cd in the stereo when using the 'Aux' input...unless you like mixing your music :)
Hi Ben, I doubt if this thread is still alive after all this time. I just wonder..on the soldering part you mention number 5 is right audio...however you solder the white line on that particular pin. But white stands for left audio right? I guess what you said is correct and the soldering is not done accordingly or am I fully mistaken? Thanks so much for sharing your insightes..looking forward so much to this to be working out and enjoying the auxilery input!!
It could be possible, this video is pretty old now though, and I suggest following the updated instructions on my website for a more advanced version that lets you switch between CD and aux-in: www.jagdroid.org/advanced-cd-aux-in-modification/
Great story - BUT : What happened to the yellow and brown wire after solding them. I did not see that they has been connected when teh Player is back in the car This is irritating
Good point, that is explained on my website here: jaguar.willcoxonline.com/part-4 (except I changed to using black/red wires some time after making this video). The extra wires are only needed when doing the full Android conversion shown on my site.
The explaination is well done but still too confusion for me: very simple question : I have a cheap smartphone, a bluetooth receiver that works fine with a 3.5 mm male jack plug. I do not ned SKIP function etc. Only request : get the music aux in. Is it enough that I sold the 3 wires from the video on pin 3,4,5 as shown as one end of a female 3.5 jack plug ?

Hello Ben. I'm admiring your hard work on adding AUX to the X-Type. I've successfully added an AUX input to a player for analog setup but I couldn't figure out what kind of resistor should I use for a digital player. It's a 100K but what is the correct wattage? Thank you in advance.
Hi, I replied by email but for the benefit of others reading this a standard quarter watt resistor will be sufficient as it's not passing any significant current, it's just a pull-down resistor to prevent noise and interference when the SPDIF input is floating and not connected to anything.

Does anyone know if it is possible to fit a cd front end audio system to the Jaguar XE? The car only comes with a radio.. Or even a cassette player would be an enormous improvement on the present system.
Thanks for the video. Would it be easier to replace the factory radio with a aftermarket stereo receiver, but having to bypass the audio optical connections + rewire the audio system in general?
It's not easy to replace the original radio as the Bluetooth phone, Jaguar Voice, and Navigation systems all transmit audio via the D2B fibre optic bus, which is only compatible with the factory radio
Instead of an aux connection can a Bluetooth device be added to receive the signal from your phone? I'd rather not have cables sticking out of my console
Hi different problem. Wanting to put rear view camera on. Nav fitted. No inputs to receive picture. Is they a way to install RGB to put it on screen. They is a short video on here. Which is Useless. It doesn't show how it's wired up. Any help would be great. X type.
I now have Bluetooth upgrade service which you can see here www.jagdroid.org/jagdroid-bt and you can email me about it if you are interested, ben@jagdroid.org
I see you connected both ground wires together, will this not take away the stereo and turn it into mono? If not you should offer a service for you to do this for people I would expect it would earn a few quid..
Steve Newton an analogue stereo signal generally uses a shared ground (for example a 3 pin 3.5mm stereo jack) so it’s absolutely normal to common them together. It doesn’t affect the stereo signal :)
hello is it possible you could focus in or show me the exact 2 right and left tracks to cut on cd tray unit im 50% done but cant see the 2 tracks yoy say 2 cut for cd audio to be eliminated thank you
ive done this to my cd player (as I mentioned previous) and it didn't work, as it's a standard (not premium) player, but if I bought an analogue to digital converter, would that work?
The mod in this video only works on cars with Alpine audio, there is another version in the link in the description which can work on cars with standard audio along with an ADC. However I would recommend my JagDroid-BT bluetooth upgrade which you can see here: www.jagdroid.org/jagdroid-bt you can email info@jagdroid.org for more information.

What happened when you tried? Did you do the correct version depending on whether you have Standard or Alpine Premium audio? I have a new aux-in method now which I recommend instead although it's a bit more complex: www.jagdroid.org/advanced-cd-aux-in-modification/
@@saeidjavar5338 I have a conversion service to add bluetooth audio streaming support to the CD player. See my website www.jagdroid.org/jagdroid-cd for details
I've tossed around the idea of adding an aux cable to my stock x350 lwb radio/cd player using the jagdriod aux-in mod. My question is if after doing this will It render the cd player useless for regular cds, will I have both options for audio source either cd or aux cable? Thanks
With the version in this video, yes you'll lose the CD player audio (although you could switch this externally with a relay). I have a new version of the mod which I will publish a video soon, which allows you to switch between CD audio and aux-in audio although the mod is a little more complex.
Hi. If'd use analog-digital converter to play sound from any external source, like a phone or some player, do you know if I should feed the head unit with the signal from coax or toslink output of the ADC? I could provide the spdif(toslink) signal directly from a ADS' diode, which has 3 pins (Vin, Vcc, GND) I suppose, but if the coax output voltage and current are the same, I'd obviously prefer to use it, as it's already an electrical signal, rather than to solder cables inside that converter.
If you're using an ADC to get analogue audio from a phone etc into a car fitted with Standard Audio (that requires SPDIF input) then yes simply use the Co-ax output of the ADC into the SPDIF input of the CD player
@@JagDroid Thanks for replying. With my idea validated I can now order an ADC and once I receive it I'm putting everything together. I hope the jag audio works with 48 or standard CD 44.1 kHz sampling as those are the only ones supported by that ADC I ordered :x
Thanks for this. I tried this on a BD with the alpine colour sat nav sovereign spec. As soon as I cut the LR tracks I got CD Error. Resoldering them made the cd work again. I assumed I would get double audio from CD player and Phone when both connected ie. non isolated CD player... but nothing from phone...only CD audio. Any ideas?
ok. quick update. I tried the different mod as per your website and that worked. Isolating the pins via tape on the ribbon cable did not upset the unit. However, I still don't get sound from the 1st mod using pin pads 3,4,5.
Aux in is currently medium volume (Galaxy s5 on full volume) because front speakers are barely registering and rears are echoing. Also my fm transmitter seems quieter...although radio fm channels seem fine.
And you have the L/R audio and ground connected as shown here: lh6.googleusercontent.com/3_xL3drhN3-SSmM6tQdiGNB08W8hXupRIOYMwyQ6TWyAUvJSpYrFrfxkHLNoO_gYbcgTd2NNksZejTUtuxRDZLrkPtowsuW_hrhG1MEFB4ynWL7we_M=w572

@@JohannesKainzkaijoc14 have a look at my new website here: www.jagdroid.org/advanced-cd-aux-in-modification/ you still need to have a CD in the drive and playing, you can't just ground the flag as this is just the indicator to the Arduino, it doesn't override the player itself.
Hi. Going to ask what is probably a dumb question. I have an x350 with standard cd player. If I do the digital version of the upgrade am I correct that only single wire plus ground is soldered and if so does this work with the output from my 3.5mm phone jack as does that not have 2 channels?
Hi Neil, if you have standard audio (i.e. no ALPINE badges on your front door speakers) then you need to do the digital version of the mod, which uses a single wire (plus ground) which carries a digital SPDIF format signal that encodes both stereo channels onto a digital stream. You can't directly plug a phone headphone output into this, you'd need to use an Analogue to Digital converter perhaps something like this: www.thomann.de/gb/lindy_audiokonverter_analogspdif.htm?ref=search_prv_9 to convert your phone stereo analogue output into the SPDIF format.
You only need this when doing my full Android upgrade (jaguar.willcoxonline.com/) which allows you to skip tracks using the steering wheel controls on your car
h"llo is it possible to keep cd function by adding a on off connctor ? can you tell me where to connect it, my english is not enought good to understand all the video tks guy
You can add a double-pole changeover switch or relay to switch between the CD audio and the aux-in, this is used on my full Android conversion see here for more info: jaguar.willcoxonline.com/home
Hey, thanks for this tutorial! I've tried this mod on my CD player in the X-Type Estate 2004, but its still playing audio from the CD. What could be wrong?
Hi, sounds like you have the digital version of the CD player - see this thread here for more information about this: www.jaguarforum.com/showthread.php?t=96954&page=75
This would work? This way you could use cd or aux, what ever you prefer, just by inserting a cd with silent track? Or does this mean that the AUX does not play audio at all?
Over thinking takes all you blokes down a rabbit hole. There's an adapter for HDMI to RCA that can simply go in the trunk on the plug in to the Navigation DVR. Pluf in a Roku and you can use your phone and Roku remote or computer wireless keyboard.
There is no RCA input on the Navigation DVD player, you're probably thinking of the rear entertainment input which was an optional extra only fitted on some models
Good for you Dave I'm glad you're happy with your FM transmitter! But if you can't hear the difference between that and a direct line-in, I suggest you visit your GP and get your ears syringed!

@@JohannesKainzkaijoc14 have a look at my new website here: www.jagdroid.org/advanced-cd-aux-in-modification/ you still need to have a CD in the drive and playing, you can't just ground the flag as this is just the indicator to the Arduino, it doesn't override the player itself.

Hi. Going to ask what is probably a dumb question. I have an x350 with standard cd player. If I do the digital version of the upgrade am I correct that only single wire plus ground is soldered and if so does this work with the output from my 3.5mm phone jack as does that not have 2 channels?
Hi Neil, if you have standard audio (i.e. no ALPINE badges on your front door speakers) then you need to do the digital version of the mod, which uses a single wire (plus ground) which carries a digital SPDIF format signal that encodes both stereo channels onto a digital stream. You can't directly plug a phone headphone output into this, you'd need to use an Analogue to Digital converter perhaps something like this: www.thomann.de/gb/lindy_audiokonverter_analogspdif.htm?ref=search_prv_9 to convert your phone stereo analogue output into the SPDIF format.
Jaguar Touchscreen hacking thought that was the case . Thanks for the help. Will give it a try..
Hi i have 2002 jag radio but i can’t fitt the aux in can anyone help me please what i did wrong...?! My radio code is AD
Hi! can I make control from the steering wheel without android? (sorry for my English)
I don't think it's possible, sorry
I dont understand - for why need yellow-black cable? (can not translate to Russian speak)
You only need this when doing my full Android upgrade (jaguar.willcoxonline.com/) which allows you to skip tracks using the steering wheel controls on your car
Thanks a lot!
@@JagDroid so i can only make an aux jack and change tracks with using deivice what plays the music?
Has anyone tried splicing into the audio wires from the satnav?
The audio from the Navigation is transmitted digitally over the D2B optical network. You can't splice analogue audio into it this way I'm afraid...
made like you and not working. why?
h"llo is it possible to keep cd function by adding a on off connctor ? can you tell me where to connect it, my english is not enought good to understand all the video
tks guy
You can add a double-pole changeover switch or relay to switch between the CD audio and the aux-in, this is used on my full Android conversion see here for more info: jaguar.willcoxonline.com/home
If I visit you will you help me do this, you are better at this than me. waaaaay better
Doesn't work for BE. "no Disc". I'll try to add a digital Input now.
Hey, thanks for this tutorial!
I've tried this mod on my CD player in the X-Type Estate 2004, but its still playing audio from the CD. What could be wrong?
Hi, sounds like you have the digital version of the CD player - see this thread here for more information about this: www.jaguarforum.com/showthread.php?t=96954&page=75
MrChillout1994 You can burn a blank CD so it will play with no sound. I used a free program called Audacity.
This would work? This way you could use cd or aux, what ever you prefer, just by inserting a cd with silent track? Or does this mean that the AUX does not play audio at all?
Переведите пожалуйста!
Over thinking takes all you blokes down a rabbit hole. There's an adapter for HDMI to RCA that can simply go in the trunk on the plug in to the Navigation DVR. Pluf in a Roku and you can use your phone and Roku remote or computer wireless keyboard.
For less than $50.00 us.
There is no RCA input on the Navigation DVD player, you're probably thinking of the rear entertainment input which was an optional extra only fitted on some models
load of rubbish the quality is excellent on FM transmitter iv got one
Good for you Dave I'm glad you're happy with your FM transmitter! But if you can't hear the difference between that and a direct line-in, I suggest you visit your GP and get your ears syringed!
See the GP and also a psychiatrist.
