@@alexgarrett8074did you ever get it figured out? I just installed this in my wife's car and now there isn't audio. I guess I will just have to install the old unit until I can get it figured out.
The dash separating is a recall, I found out about it like 2 weeks ago. They were supposed to tell everyone, and claimed they did. But I didn’t hear shit. Call a dealer and ask about it, they have to fix it
I had my 2012 Mazda 3 dash separating for a while now but did not know this was a recall. i didnt get any letter from them. Looking into it, it said that Mazda just extended warranty 7 years from the original warranty start date (which is only until 2018). Were you able to get yours covered by the dealership even if its past the covvered warranty dates?
I also never recieved a letter about the recall and I am the only owner of my 2012. I dont know if they followed the proper procedure for notifying customers. @@LarnCat
Great video . Are there any settings on the tablet that control the back up camera from displaying in reverse ? Mine stopped working and I am not sure where to start 😢
Guys did anyone else have issues with one or more speakers not working? In my case it's the front passenger speaker bose system. Another weird problem I had is the bluetooth pairing mode. Phone and head unit see each other but can't successfully pair.
Many many thanks for this video. I have the same car, so I feel good about my chances this will work in mine. … even better that it also works with the iPhone 15.
There is steering wheel support. Contact their customer service to get the password to unlock the hidden menu so that you can select the correct car model.
Do you know if there is 3 constant hot wires on the 2nd gens? I cant find any info on this but Im having a constant with the brown wire, a violet one and a red one and im thinking its not normal but wanting to find a forsure answer to this.
hey man, just put mine in and started up the car n no bootup? any ideas. mine is a 2011 base gs sedan, i may figure it out but just wanted to ask in case ya might know what’s up¿
So how did you screw in the new radio to keep it in place? The screws that came with the stock radio are too short to reach and the A/C vent isn’t going to hold it in place.
@@luismcwhorter8926 what color is the amp wire and is it coming directly from the amp in the rear or are you talking behind the head unit and what power cable are you referring to
@@alexgarrett8074 yep, if you have the Bose package in your car you can’t use the radio unless you figure out how to wire the AMP wire to the new head unit
I have a different brand but it's designed just kind your's. I can't find a message icon on mine and saw that when you started yours you didn't have one either but all of the sudden you did. How do I get a message icon to show up and how do you get all steering wheel controls to work for phone. Thank you
Left side speakers didn't work. Bluetooth pairing didn't work despite trying again and again and on different days. I didn't do anything different. It just worked once. I really hope I do not have to repeat this process again. I don't look forward to doing this again should I get a new phone. Don't know if I damaged something myself or the unit is faulty. Tried sending emails to their website but they weren't keen to help me. The moment I left a bad review they suddenly want to help me. Long after I had installed the unit and other extras like dashcams and reverse etc. Was tired, fed-up and in no-mood to repeat the self-installation again. I left the bad review for everyone to see and I ain't ashamed of it. Some people had a smooth time. For me not worth the hassle despite the lower cost.
Was wondering does the new device push enough watts to the speakers ,does the music you play through it still sound good. Is the bluetooth real good? Can you hook a back up cam to it as well ..and it comes with the harness to hook up as well .
All yes, I also have one of these in another car different brand and it makes it significantly better and easier to navigate. CarPlay is such a gamechanger and is better than using your phone with a car phone mount. Bluetooth latency is low and connects really quick l
You can use the knob that says push audio control and you can see the settings and the controls on the small red screen. The the screen that the guy just installed doesn't have to do with anything. With that small screen, it's on the dashboard
I have a Bose in mine ,does it still work ? I hooked it up and it has power but no sound and the medium sized plug still isn't plugged into anything ,and the audio video female plugs are not plugged into anything
@@charlenearanda7849 there are ones that are compatible just a little more expensive but honestly you can take it to a audio shop and they can do it for like a hundred bucks in less than an hour
Ok, so I got this (they’re all pretty much the same hardware under different company names) - and after much pulling of hair - I was finally able to get it to work. The issue is that - there’s no manual. Installation is a breeze - but understanding the apps boils down to pure trial and error. The wireless CarPlay is atrocious - I’ve had to create a “shortcuts” script on my iPhone to automatically disable WiFi on my phone so that it won’t connect wirelessly - essentially forcing it to connect wired. The only issue I’m left with now is - how do I get the unit to automatically connect via Bluetooth?? Without a Bluetooth connection, you won’t be able to hear the other person when receiving or making calls. I have to manually connect to Bluetooth as my phone doesn’t automatically connect.
I'm on the road to 20K SUBS! It would mean a lot if you can help me reach that goal🫡
I’m impressed, for $200 it’s on the wish list
Guys the third cable isn’t needed 👍🏿 the device has it built in with encoders
No audio bro
3rd cable is for the Bose audio and steering wheel controls got some wiring to do now 😒
I got it to fire up but no audio. What do I do about that?
@@alexgarrett8074did you ever get it figured out? I just installed this in my wife's car and now there isn't audio. I guess I will just have to install the old unit until I can get it figured out.
@@alexgarrett8074do you have a solution to this?
Did you have any issues with it draining your battery
Wait a minute, you disconnected 3 plugs from the old radio and connected 2 only for the new one ?, so how do that work ?
He didn’t need the third.
Do you have to turn off your battery ?

It's in setting in car then factory settings 126 then under other
Thanks great video
Thank you
I see always the air conditioner band on the low side, how can I remove it??
hey! are the mirror link cables necessary? I have this and i’ve been a bit confused on where to plug that into the car. Do i even need to?
Only for wired connections with android or iOS you don’t need it for iPhone

Eonon

where can I buy this exact model ?
Description
Does this work with the bose system
Doesn’t seem too
No steering control is a deal breaker for me. Dammit
No it would work but on the car itself it never worked to begin with probably cables or something
There is steering wheel support. Contact their customer service to get the password to unlock the hidden menu so that you can select the correct car model.
Audio doesn’t work at all, so wtf?

Only thing I can think of is something wasn’t connected all the way
Same here . Did you figure out what wasn't connected?
Hey man! Did your reverse camera and controls on the steering wheel still work after installation?
Probably need a decoder adapter for the reverse camera
It would be awesome if the steering wheel controls worked with that system. Love the car...hate all the buttons on the dash!
What about making calls from your iPhone, or asking Siri to play podcasts?
That 2010 Mazda 3 dash warp is a real problem tho. I miss my 2008 😢
Same with the 2013 warping
So how did you screw in the new radio to keep it in place? The screws that came with the stock radio are too short to reach and the A/C vent isn’t going to hold it in place.
No can bus decoder? the manual says if you have that to connect that first to the power cable. I think the big red connector is probably power?
Blue cable
Great video
why do none of these videos show how to get the wires out the back like damn 😞 mine fr wont come out
This is not 10.1". Its Android 10 with a 9" touch screen

Any advice with Bose speakers? Everything is working but no sound

I like my Mazda 3 with less tech in it. Just my preference. Less stuff to break.
When the original radio breaks you’ll be back 😂

If I buy a backup cam for it I hope its not to difficult To install with device
@@joshuashelton10 I was never able to figure that out. They never worked to begin with on either of my cars not sure if the cables went bad.

No after you setup once it’ll auto connect ever time to CarPlay
