Thank you for the video, i try to put the module behind the screen like you but i found out that it is much easier to put it behind the glovebox, there is lots of space there.This way there is no need to remove the screen ,preventing the possibility of breaking pins( your model of screen comes out without removing the entire frame ,including the vent fans,but other models need this,like mine, making this step much harder & unnecessary)
Thank you for the information, and the guide!❤ I have Octavia VRS 2014, and just installed this module today. All works fine, just that the music/source stops every time you switch from the car to the added module/multimedia, once you press the "Media" button. So you have to choose "Bluetooth" when on the car's original multimedia, and when you press the button to swich to the module, then the music plays. So in general the "Media" Button switches the audio source every time it is pressed. Second inconvinience person s that whennyou switch off the engine, whithout removing the key, the module stops, so the power to it is cut. Other then these two side issues, it all works. 😊
Thanx for your great explaining video Fast delivery and after connecting it worked at once. A lot of hassle to neatly eliminate the cords etc, but this has succeeded and it looks staples and works as described, I am happy with a well -functioning iOS CarPlay in my Skoda Octavia combi 2014
Hi, thank you for the fantastic video. Is it correct the system only works with the engine on? So does it not work with the ignition switched in but the engine off?
I fitted this and it works well, except the phone calls do not come out the car speakers, i have options for phone, phone speaker, and bluetooth - but neither come out the car speakers, any ideas?
Hello. In the module interface, go to the menu Settings / Factory Mode (pass: 0301) / Use original BT. Try to activate ON here and see if it will work.
hello. I bought this device because of your nice review. today i put everything into my car Skoda Octavia 2014 Colmbus MIB1 with canton. my problem ist that i have to say the quality of the music is really not good. i tried some times to change between the original bluetooth and the wireless system but no change. in wireless it sounds like my speaker ist broken. do you have some tipps ? thanks for your answer
Hello. I don't know where the problem could be. In the car on which I installed the module, I had no sound problem. Try to check the cable connections, tell the seller from whom you bought the module about this problem.

@@istvandienes445 Yes, it should be compatible. However, ask for a confirmation from the seller. They will probably ask you for pictures of the multimedia unit.
Thank you for the video explaining these devices. There is little information available (even from supplier) on how these devices work and operate. Question: can this unit work with factory Golf 7 reverse camera and front aftermarket camera? example, reverse gear selected, factory reverse camera on screen, when drive/forward gear selected, the screen switch to aftermarket front camera.

Hi, do you know something about firmware updates? I use the car with my wife and I have not found a convenient way to switch between two phones. Another question is the USB. Is it possible to use the USB port of my car instead of the USB port of module? Thank you and great video 👍🏻
@@Adrian_AFD thank you for answer. So as I understood, phone calls works normally via Bluetooth, doesn't matter if audio source is FM radio, AUX, we are on AA screen or on original car menu?
Hello! I installed the module .My question is, do I have a camera in the car? I'll show you what it looks like in the picture. It doesn't turn on the camera image or parking distance while using the module! Why is that? I have octavia III mib1 colombus
Hello. The car on which I installed the module did not have the original reversing camera, so I cannot tell you clearly if the original camera works or not. Theoretically it should work, the important thing is that it switches automatically when you go into reverse gear. You may have to put a cable from the positive wire of the reversing lamp, so the module knows when to switch to the reversing camera.
Hi. I am looking at isntalling this but have the old AMI port and Media in not an AUX option. Will it still work or do I need to get the option coded for sound? Thanks
Hello. Normally the module will use the microphone of the original multimedia system, so you should be heard just as well. Check in the module menu / Settings / Audio Settings / MIC sensitivity (I hope I'm not wrong) some setting for the microphone. Try some adjustments on those values, I hope it works for you.
Hello and thanks for this video, I have a question: does the original rear camera works with the plug and play cablages or it's necessary to do some different wiring?
Hello. The car on which I installed the module did not have the original reversing camera, so I cannot tell you clearly if the original camera works or not. Theoretically it should work, the important thing is that it switches automatically when you go into reverse gear.
Interested in this as well. Installed on 2015 GTI with MIB1 and factory rear camera does not show if the module is active. Upon exiting to the stock software it works as expected.
Hi, thank you very much for the video that both inspired me to purchase and led me through the installation! Yesterday I installed the module into Octavia 2014 with Amundsen and everything works except one thing. When I shift to reverse (manual) normally the original radio displays parking camera plus sensors view. It doesn't do that when I'm using the module. It is kind of annoying to switch back and forth while driving reverse. Does anyone know if that can be fixed?
I also have bought this same unit - the problem is that mine does have a microswitch codes table on the back just for VW Golf 7 - how did you set the switches? Like in the video or different?
Hi guys. My advice is that if you have problems with these modules, write to the seller where you bought it from and send a video with your problem, he is the best person to help you. As you can see in the video, I had no problem on the Skoda Octavia 3, it works perfectly.
Thank you very much for your video, without it I would not have dared to mount it in my car. I have a question, once installed, the phone (iPhone) connects but the CarPlay applications do not play sound, nor Waze, nor Spotify, etc. although they do seem to be in operation. Could you help me to solve the problem?
Hello. This Android Auto / Carplay module does not use Android as an operating system. I don't know its operating system but it works well, as for the firmware update, I haven't seen it exist, but you should ask the seller.
Hi Adrian, greetings from the UK I have just bought an Octavia from 2015 (My first car) and I want to retro fit android auto. I notice you have 3 different videos in which you do this. 1. Install an android box 2. install the 10 inch head unit 3. instal this wirelss android auto module. Which one do you prefer and recommend? Please help
Hello. 1. I liked that Android Box, but it seems that no one sells it anymore, probably it is no longer manufactured. 2. The Android unit is very good, especially the versions with Octa Core processor, but the simplicity of the menu to make the car settings is missing. One more thing, if your car has Canton premium audio system, this Android unit is not compatible. 3. I think this module is the best option among the three: it works well and you keep the original multimedia, compatible with CANTON audio. I hope I helped you make the decision easier.
I guess it is impossible to listen to the radio and use Android Auto at the same time (AA/CP voice prompts temporarily mute radio) as in the original AA/CP enabled multimedia units.
Hello. It is not possible to listen to the original radio and receive voice prompts from AA or Carplay mode. But you can listen to online radio through AA or Carplay, I use TuneIN and it's very good.
@@Adrian_AFD I was afraid of such an answer, unfortunately listening to the radio over LTE can be quite cost-generating and requires good LTE signal strength. I don't need Android Auto in local traffic in my city. On the other hand, during longer trips, I like to listen to the FM radio, especially considering it has much better coverage than LTE or even 3G. So this product is not for me :(
I have a Bolero without navi, but an extra box is installed so I have a rear camera/navi (long press media button), will I still be able to use this Android auto module? I have only SD box ind the glove compartment.
hi! Seat leon 5f 2015 mib1 it does not work, it does not switch to a longer press of the media button, only a small click is heard from the module, no image is displayed no matter how we set it. is there any solution? Thanks.
Hello. Check that all plugs are well and correctly connected. If you don't succeed, I think it would be good to ask the seller about this problem, give him a video or pictures of the connections.
Thanks for the video, however my Carplay box still gets power even when i turn off the engine and remove my key from the ignition. Do you know what the fix is?
@@lalann187I don’t, I was away for a month and didn’t turn on my car during it & when I came back the battery of my car didn’t die so I guess it turns off itself!
The version you have in description doesn't have wireless Android auto, I'm still considering buying one but i have 8" discover pro MIB1 Radio with Dynaudio with life time map updates.. so... and from what I read you lose a lot of audio quality with these modules if you have Dynaudio. Maybe not worth it in my case.
Hello. It has and works Android Auto Wireless, see in this video that I tested with Android Auto Wireless. Tested on Skoda with MIB1 and CANTON audio, it sounds excellent, I didn't notice any loss of sound quality.
when you reverse then the parking sensors turns on but when you put drive then the parkingsensors turn of can we do something that make the screen stay a couple of secounds on the parkinsensor screen?
Hello I have two questions: is there a way to avoid automatic switch to android auto when I start the car? It starts also with the setting that says "start automatically only if used the last time" When I turn off the car the radio's screen goes off after about 30 seconds. Is there a way to avoid it?
Hello. 1. Disable Android Auto Wireless, that's how it worked for me. 2. I don't have this 30-second delay, maybe there would be some more options through the settings.
@@Adrian_AFD Thank you for your answers, disabling android auto wireless solved also for me. for the second question I was explaining bad my problem, my problem is that before installing the module the screen of my radio never went off when I turned off the car until I removed the key, but now after about thirty seconds it goes off when I hear a click of a relay coming from the module . this problem is annoying.. however I have another question: did you find a way to make automatic day/night theme working on maps? it doesn't work on me if is set automatically, neither if I set "controlled by car" or "controlled by auto"
@@danilomodica2192 The module works as long as the ignition is on, it does not know how to manage on / off when you remove the key from the ignition. For me, the day / night mode works automatically. Maybe you haven't updated the Android Auto application on your phone?
Hello, is video in motion (VIM) activated automatically or does it have to be encoded like by the original Columbus Navi so that you can watch videos, youtube or Films while driving? Car is Skoda Octavia VRS Tdi 2014 with Columbus Navi and Canton Soundsystem.
Hello. Thank you for telling me about your unpleasant experience. But what were those bugs? You can write to me here to let the other viewers of the video know.
When I first connect the cable, it works fine, but when I unplug it, CarPlay disconnects even though it's connected via Bluetooth. Is there a solution? I'm using iOS.
I have a Golf 2014, germany version with mib1. When I try to change the source input, all options are blocked except bluetooh. Do you know what should I do?
Hi. Hello. You must have an active sound source from the phone connected to the Android Auto / Carplay module, for example the Online radio application. After this you will find the active AUX IN option in the list.
Hello. I haven't tested to activate that Auto AUX from the factory and I don't know if you should activate Auxiliary Input every time you start or not.
Hello. The seller says that it also works with MIB2 (only card reader in the glove box). Try this link as well, it's the same product: s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DCdsQHB
Unitatea ta multimedia are și Carplay sau Android Auto? De fapt nu cred ca am înțeles foarte clar ce anume vrei sa adaugi actualei unități multimedia 🙂
Salut! Am montat și eu modulul carplay tot la un skoda octavia 3 și acuma vreau și un cameră de masalier dar nu funcționează. Au cumva un video cum montezi?
If i may ask, is the signal from the rear camera( original or aftermarket) going trough the device in order to be displayed picture, because my original multimedia does not read signal from camera?
Hello Adrian, I ordered the camera and the module from your link. I didn't have a camera on my Skoda Octavia before. Now I have installed the module and connected the camera to the “Rear CVBS” output. When I put my car in reverse only the original Parkpilot screen appears but my camera doesn't work. When I connect the camera to the "Front Camera" or "AV" connection I see the image. Do I have to code my Skoda's reverse camera first for it to work or do I have the wrong setting? Thanks for your support!
Salutare, am o skoda octavia 3 combi productie 2013 noiembrie. De regula am vazut ca sunt luate in calcul ca 2014. Ai idee daca acest modul funcționează si la mine ? Masina este echipata ch multimedia columbus.
Thanks for the video! I tried to install the module in an Octavia mk3 2014 with Amundsen MIB(1). When testing the screen remained blank and the radio was playing the station it was set to before I started. After removing the module and returning to the orginal sittuation I realised I did not test with the engine running. Is this required? Is the module only starting with the engine running? And therefore it is normal the screen remains blank when the engine is not running?
Hi, I installed the module like one month ago and can confirm: the module is only powered when the ignition is turned on. Besides from that you have to set "aux" as the media input. When switching to the module by holding the media button, make sure you do not do this while in media tab, as holding the media key while in the tab is also the hotkey for switching the input.
@@andreasn3995 Thanks for your reply. But my module seems to have a more stuborn problem. The OEM display remains blank. I do not see anything, not even the display of the original OEM functionality. Also the buttons on the OEM unit are not working. The steering wheel buttons are still working. I can control the audio from the OEM unit this way and I can change stations and sources this way for example. But the screen doesn't show anything. I tried the various dipswitch settings and restarted the car after every change. I double checked all connections severeral times and all Is connected as indicated in the intstructions. I seriously suspect I have a faulty module.
@@evandenboom OK. Regarding the switches it should be the same configuration as in the video just with switch 5 off instead of on. As everything is working but the display with the buttons it has to be either a faulty module or faulty cables. You could try asking the vendor to send you a new set of cables. Or you just send back the module and buy a new one.

Using Columbus with canton speakers here, - I cannot use the radio with ignition off, is there any solution for this? - The waze is does not appear in android auto - the parking function of the module is intrusive, can i shut it down and use the OEM instead? - After switching the media to aux and start the android auto, the radio automatically switch to other source, is there fix? thanks

Instalezi aplicația AAAD, apoi din meniul AAAD dai la carstream (e prima opțiune) instalezi carstream din AAAD și asta e tot. Te conectezi cu telefonul la android auto și o sa îți apară car stream cu iconit de yt și o sa îți meargă video pe navigatie. AAAD tre sa il descarci ca apk de pe net :d
Pai e logic sa nu auzi radioul masinii dacă treci pe sursa AUX IN ca să auzi indicațiile Waze. Dar poti folosi o aplicație de radio online și când ai telefonul conectat la modul pe Android Auto sau Carplay poți asculta radio la calitate mult mai buna decât cea a radioului FM. Eu folosesc aplicația TuneIN.

Interested in this as well. Installed on 2015 GTI with MIB1 and factory rear camera does not show if the module is active. Upon exiting to the stock software it works as expected.
@@TwistedPixelsJosh For me it works well, but it is a DSG with mib1
Hi, thank you very much for the video that both inspired me to purchase and led me through the installation! Yesterday I installed the module into Octavia 2014 with Amundsen and everything works except one thing. When I shift to reverse (manual) normally the original radio displays parking camera plus sensors view. It doesn't do that when I'm using the module. It is kind of annoying to switch back and forth while driving reverse. Does anyone know if that can be fixed?
I have the same thing. I’ve played with the different settings but so far haven’t found a combination that works.
I also have bought this same unit - the problem is that mine does have a microswitch codes table on the back just for VW Golf 7 - how did you set the switches? Like in the video or different?
Hi guys. My advice is that if you have problems with these modules, write to the seller where you bought it from and send a video with your problem, he is the best person to help you. As you can see in the video, I had no problem on the Skoda Octavia 3, it works perfectly.
@@AljazVidmarThis might be like the one I bought, only had for Golf, but it was the same number of switches so I set up as in the video.
@@AljazVidmar I had the same problem, paused the video and did it that way.
I have a 2016 polo - with non nav but have a unit in the glove box will it still work? its MIB 2 but a non nav unit.
Hello. It should work, but it would be best to ask the seller,
Thank you very much for your video, without it I would not have dared to mount it in my car.
I have a question, once installed, the phone (iPhone) connects but the CarPlay applications do not play sound, nor Waze, nor Spotify, etc. although they do seem to be in operation.
Could you help me to solve the problem?
Hello. You connect with your phone, start the music application and then go to the Source menu and select AUX. See at minute 12:23
Is USB next to AUX connector still functional if I have another nee USB cable in glove box? 12:00
Hello. Yes, the original usb will work as before.
Thank you for this video. What. Version of Android does it use and can it be updated to the latest? I’m not normally an android user.
Hello. This Android Auto / Carplay module does not use Android as an operating system. I don't know its operating system but it works well, as for the firmware update, I haven't seen it exist, but you should ask the seller.
Hi Adrian, greetings from the UK
I have just bought an Octavia from 2015 (My first car) and I want to retro fit android auto. I notice you have 3 different videos in which you do this.
1. Install an android box
2. install the 10 inch head unit
3. instal this wirelss android auto module.
Which one do you prefer and recommend?
Please help
Hello.
1. I liked that Android Box, but it seems that no one sells it anymore, probably it is no longer manufactured.
2. The Android unit is very good, especially the versions with Octa Core processor, but the simplicity of the menu to make the car settings is missing. One more thing, if your car has Canton premium audio system, this Android unit is not compatible.
3. I think this module is the best option among the three: it works well and you keep the original multimedia, compatible with CANTON audio.
I hope I helped you make the decision easier.
I guess it is impossible to listen to the radio and use Android Auto at the same time (AA/CP voice prompts temporarily mute radio) as in the original AA/CP enabled multimedia units.
Hello. It is not possible to listen to the original radio and receive voice prompts from AA or Carplay mode. But you can listen to online radio through AA or Carplay, I use TuneIN and it's very good.
@@Adrian_AFD I was afraid of such an answer, unfortunately listening to the radio over LTE can be quite cost-generating and requires good LTE signal strength. I don't need Android Auto in local traffic in my city. On the other hand, during longer trips, I like to listen to the FM radio, especially considering it has much better coverage than LTE or even 3G. So this product is not for me :(
I have a Bolero without navi, but an extra box is installed so I have a rear camera/navi (long press media button), will I still be able to use this Android auto module?
I have only SD box ind the glove compartment.
Hello. I think you can connect the video signal cable from the old module to the new module and everything will work fine.
Oare este vreun modul pentru Skoda Octavia 2 VRs din 2010
Salut. Doar sa schimbi unitatea complet cu un sistem Android.
hi! Seat leon 5f 2015 mib1 it does not work, it does not switch to a longer press of the media button, only a small click is heard from the module, no image is displayed no matter how we set it. is there any solution? Thanks.
Hello. Check that all plugs are well and correctly connected. If you don't succeed, I think it would be good to ask the seller about this problem, give him a video or pictures of the connections.
.....si pentru skoda kodiaq 2020 MIB III ?
Salut! Dar MIB III nu are activat Carplay si Android Auto?
is possible some cheaper solution? Octa2014, Xiaomi12T
Hello. This would be a cheaper option for your car: s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DmOgUIJ
Thanks for the video, however my Carplay box still gets power even when i turn off the engine and remove my key from the ignition. Do you know what the fix is?
Hello. I noticed that on VAG cars, the module remains active for a few minutes, after which it stops. I don't know a solution for this problem.
Hey, did you find a solution?
@@lalann187I don’t, I was away for a month and didn’t turn on my car during it & when I came back the battery of my car didn’t die so I guess it turns off itself!
@@msbatur thanks it don’t affect my battery either
The version you have in description doesn't have wireless Android auto, I'm still considering buying one but i have 8" discover pro MIB1 Radio with Dynaudio with life time map updates.. so... and from what I read you lose a lot of audio quality with these modules if you have Dynaudio. Maybe not worth it in my case.
Hello. It has and works Android Auto Wireless, see in this video that I tested with Android Auto Wireless.
Tested on Skoda with MIB1 and CANTON audio, it sounds excellent, I didn't notice any loss of sound quality.
Hi, does it support multi-touch? Like zoom in zoom out on waze and other apps
Is this compatible with the Octavia 2018 Swing multimedia? Thanks
Hello. If you have a CD drive and /or card reader in the glove box, it should work.
Hi, for golf 7 with discovery media mib 1 from 2014 can it be compatible?
Thank you
Hello. If your car has a CD drive in the glove box, it is compatible.
when you reverse then the parking sensors turns on but when you put drive then the parkingsensors turn of can we do something that make the screen stay a couple of secounds on the parkinsensor screen?
I did not see any option to do this.
Hello, can i listen FM radio when carplay is on?
Hello. Yes, you can listen to FM radio when Carplay or Android Auto is running. But you can also listen to online radio from apps like TuneIN.
Do you think those devices are universal? If not, how to understand the compability. I am looking for buying second hand device for my car.
Hello. What car do you have?
@@Adrian_AFD it’s audi a3 2020
I know it doesn't work on Audi.
Hello I have two questions:
is there a way to avoid automatic switch to android auto when I start the car? It starts also with the setting that says "start automatically only if used the last time"
When I turn off the car the radio's screen goes off after about 30 seconds. Is there a way to avoid it?
Hello.
1. Disable Android Auto Wireless, that's how it worked for me.
2. I don't have this 30-second delay, maybe there would be some more options through the settings.
@@Adrian_AFD Thank you for your answers, disabling android auto wireless solved also for me.
for the second question I was explaining bad my problem, my problem is that before installing the module the screen of my radio never went off when I turned off the car until I removed the key, but now after about thirty seconds it goes off when I hear a click of a relay coming from the module . this problem is annoying..
however I have another question: did you find a way to make automatic day/night theme working on maps? it doesn't work on me if is set automatically, neither if I set "controlled by car" or "controlled by auto"
@@danilomodica2192 The module works as long as the ignition is on, it does not know how to manage on / off when you remove the key from the ignition.
For me, the day / night mode works automatically. Maybe you haven't updated the Android Auto application on your phone?
What if you don’t have the CD player in your system?
Salut. Merge si pe Seat Leon 2015? Multumesc
Salutare! Daca ai în torpedou unitatea pentru CD sau card reader, ar trebui sa mearga.
Hello, is video in motion (VIM) activated automatically or does it have to be encoded like by the original Columbus Navi so that you can watch videos, youtube or Films while driving? Car is Skoda Octavia VRS Tdi 2014 with Columbus Navi and Canton Soundsystem.
Hello. With this module the VIM is active (only for module). Through Mirroring you can watch videos from UA-cam, etc.
I installed the same device on a golf sportsvan with mib 1 and I had a lot of bugs on the screen.... Removed it and sent it back to the seller
Hello. Thank you for telling me about your unpleasant experience. But what were those bugs? You can write to me here to let the other viewers of the video know.
When I first connect the cable, it works fine, but when I unplug it, CarPlay disconnects even though it's connected via Bluetooth. Is there a solution? I'm using iOS.
Hi. Have you checked in the Settings menu of the module that you have activated Carplay Wireless?
I have a Golf 2014, germany version with mib1. When I try to change the source input, all options are blocked except bluetooh. Do you know what should I do?
Hi. Hello. You must have an active sound source from the phone connected to the Android Auto / Carplay module, for example the Online radio application. After this you will find the active AUX IN option in the list.
Can it be installed on the MiB1 Octavia 2014 radio?
Yes
Salut!calitatea audio se modifica cu acest aparat?
Salut. Nu se modifica, calitatea audio este cea mai buna.
Hi thank you for your cool video's. I have a Octavia 3 (2014) with a Amudsen media system does this also work?
Hello. If they have a CD drive or card reader in the glove box, this module also works on the Amunden on your car.
After installation google maps voice commands are not working while music is playing. Is there any workaround for this ?
Hello. I have not tried this function.
did you find a work around? just installed this unit and have the same issue.
Question, on Factory Mode there is a option Active Aux -- does it mean if enabled -- the manual switch to Aux is not needed ?
Hello. I haven't tested to activate that Auto AUX from the factory and I don't know if you should activate Auxiliary Input every time you start or not.
Your link doesn’t work - also does the MIB system in the glovebox have to have the CD slot or can it work with a MIB2 (2 SD card slot only)
Hello. The seller says that it also works with MIB2 (only card reader in the glove box). Try this link as well, it's the same product: s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DCdsQHB

If i may ask, is the signal from the rear camera( original or aftermarket) going trough the device in order to be displayed picture, because my original multimedia does not read signal from camera?
Hello. You can install an aftermarket camera that you connect to the module and it will work: s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_DlY26Oz
Hello Adrian, I ordered the camera and the module from your link. I didn't have a camera on my Skoda Octavia before. Now I have installed the module and connected the camera to the “Rear CVBS” output. When I put my car in reverse only the original Parkpilot screen appears but my camera doesn't work. When I connect the camera to the "Front Camera" or "AV" connection I see the image. Do I have to code my Skoda's reverse camera first for it to work or do I have the wrong setting? Thanks for your support!
Tambien es android? Se pueden instalar aplicaciones??
Hello. Applications cannot be installed on this module.
How do you set the switches for the 400*240 resolution. What does the “/“ mean on the diagram.
Hi.
"/" - means that regardless of the position, it has no effect.
Pin 4: OFF
Pin 5: OFF
Pin 6: /
Thank you for this video. Can you tell me what is this song, I realy enjoyed
I just installed it and the display is too big for the screen. It shows only a quarter of the display

Thanks for the video!
I tried to install the module in an Octavia mk3 2014 with Amundsen MIB(1). When testing the screen remained blank and the radio was playing the station it was set to before I started.
After removing the module and returning to the orginal sittuation I realised I did not test with the engine running. Is this required? Is the module only starting with the engine running? And therefore it is normal the screen remains blank when the engine is not running?
Hi,
I installed the module like one month ago and can confirm: the module is only powered when the ignition is turned on.
Besides from that you have to set "aux" as the media input. When switching to the module by holding the media button, make sure you do not do this while in media tab, as holding the media key while in the tab is also the hotkey for switching the input.
@@andreasn3995 Thanks for your reply. But my module seems to have a more stuborn problem. The OEM display remains blank. I do not see anything, not even the display of the original OEM functionality. Also the buttons on the OEM unit are not working. The steering wheel buttons are still working. I can control the audio from the OEM unit this way and I can change stations and sources this way for example. But the screen doesn't show anything. I tried the various dipswitch settings and restarted the car after every change. I double checked all connections severeral times and all Is connected as indicated in the intstructions. I seriously suspect I have a faulty module.
@@evandenboom OK. Regarding the switches it should be the same configuration as in the video just with switch 5 off instead of on. As everything is working but the display with the buttons it has to be either a faulty module or faulty cables. You could try asking the vendor to send you a new set of cables. Or you just send back the module and buy a new one.
@@andreasn3995do you mean the ignition on, or the engine running?
