    You plugged the SWC unit to power, it should go to head unit THEN supply otherwise the steering wheel controls won't work.

    HI,
    is there no 12v permanent connection on the fuse box??
    Every person I've spoken to has said "Oh, just plug it into the fuse box". I've looked on forums, and my where I've got the yellow cable is apparently meant to be 12v permanent But from the looks of it, it isn't.....
    Oh btw I have the e90 from 2007.

    • @TheFittingBay
      @TheFittingBay  3 роки тому

      I think there is 1 spot that doesn't turn off but by the time you test it might as well just run a cable to the back.

    Hello I need help. My E90 has rear parking sensors. Ever since headunit install I’ve lost the beeping sound? I used the same steering wheel control harness as in the video. Running a Sony xav-ax1000. Works perfectly otherwise. All warning charms are there just no parking sensors beeps.

      If it came with the little speaker, its wiring or product fault. If it didn't come with a speaker its the wrong part.

    That double din conversion fascia is shiiiiit.... The bottom corners alone would have me throwing the car back at you to either rectify or return to factory.
    Should have removed the glovebox instead of messing around with the rods, you'll also find the fuse board behind there with some nice perm feed options.
    Using those mic clips aswell.. they touch the glass and so transmit road/wind noise sraight to the mic, pop the light out and attach via the sticky pad to the light when you refit it

      Art * There sure is. That whole fuse box turns off constant after a while. If you leave a test light in one of the pins and lock the car you’ll see it lose power. Hence running directly to the battery.

    Do NOT use your hands on the carpet edge plastic, use a trim pop or you'll end up with carpal tunnel like me! Incidentally, right hand kick panel (RHD) cars, you have a thick red from the battery to the jump start terminal under the bonnet, go there rather than the boot.
