check tuner pops up when it doesn't see the Siriusxm tuner plugged into the back of radio. its a separate piece .. the model number is sxv300v1 for the part needed to have siriusxm on aftermarket radios.. hope this helps
Is there anyway you can change the display button color and how would I activate Siri on a caprice 86 steering wheel cuz it’s not one of the newer cars with the steering wheel stuff
you can absolutely change the display button colors through the settings. if your vehicle has steering controls, you can program one of those buttons to activate Siri with a "press and hold" depending on which steering control module you use.
you can save the image onto a flash drive and load it up to the unit through the usb.. I haven't done it yet personally to give much more info than that.. im sure kenwoodusa.com hits on it in the support section if needed! thanks for watching!
Great video. You mentioned you purchased the usb cigarette lighter plug replacement on Amazon. Does that allow you to connect your phone to the Kenwood so you can use ApplePlay or is it just a usb charging port? Does the Kenwood plug into the back of this somehow? Thanks. Any links you can provide would be great too.. Thanks!
Yes, this cig plug replacement usb cable will work with CarPlay/android auto . It charges the phones as well. This plug has a male end for usb which will plug right into the usb input on the back of the radio. www.amazon.com/USB-Mount-Cable-Extention-Motorcycle/dp/B00VAIEAUM/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1534641167&sr=8-7&keywords=flush+mount+usb Hope this helps!
How do i reset my radio it's set on ipod and my radio goes in and out i don't know much about it and i don't know how to remove my cd lol i love the system I'm at a loss at how to use the dang thang any information can help i misplaced my handbook thanks
the radio going in/out is probably the HD kicking in and going out.. as for how to reset it, a lot of the Kenwood radios if you use a pen or something small, you can press the red Kenwood light for a few seconds and it will reset the unit
when it comes to built in navigation, the Garmin interface with Kenwood is amazing, but I find myself using the apple navigation the most due to the hands free.. I find myself saying "hey Siri take me here, or hey Siri show me traffic" or stuff like that.. plus I have my phone plugged in a lot of the time.. but you definitely can't go wrong either way.. one other thing is, the apple maps automatically update, the built in map you have to update using a flash drive and downloading the update from their website. Hope this helps!!
yeah absolutely! thanks for watching! I am going to keep trying to do more and more reviews and things like this... so if your into this kind of stuff id love to have ya as a subscriber :) either way, thanks for watching and your input!!
A few questions and requests...Can you list all the parts you used? like links to amazon so I can find the right maestro parts. If my truck already has sirius do I still have to by an adapter to get satellite radio? Do you have to run a new GPS antenna or will it use the one that is already in the truck? I have had a previous kenwood model similar to this in a previous truck....yes yes I know its un safe and there are laws...is it possible to ground a wire so it will play dvd while car is moving and there was a setting you could also look at the rearview camera while moving? How many inputs are there for cameras? I tow a camp trailer and was going to hook up the camera on the back of that. Hows that for confusing questions? Great video!
hey thanks for watching! let me see if I can answer all of these.... harness : www.amazon.com/ADS-iDataLink-Interface-HRN-RR-FO1-Freshener/dp/B00U9RB1Q6/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1532524721&sr=8-2&keywords=maestro+rr+fo1 kit: www.amazon.com/Metra-95-5812-Installation-2004-up-Vehicles/dp/B000K4V4X8/ref=sr_1_1?s=automotive&ie=UTF8&qid=1532524821&sr=1-1&keywords=99-5815 sxm tuner: www.amazon.com/SiriusXM-SXV300v1-Connect-Satellite-Streaming/dp/B00NJTO4CY/ref=sr_1_1?s=automotive&ie=UTF8&qid=1532524891&sr=1-1&keywords=sxv300v1 factory sxm antenna adapter:www.amazon.com/iDatalink-Maestro-ADS-HRN-ANT-SAT1-Aftermarket-Satellite/dp/B012FARZ3M/ref=sr_1_4?s=automotive&ie=UTF8&qid=1532524891&sr=1-4&keywords=sxv300v1 yes, when replacing the radio, you will lose siriusxm, so you will need to purchase a new tuner ..you can use the factory siriusxm antenna by purchasing an antenna adapter from maestro. you have to also run a gps antenna, can't use the factory on this either. Grounding light green wire is all you need to do to bypass the unit. You can look at camera while moving iirc. there is usually a camera view icon. and I believe it has front and rear camera inputs . I don't carry the products in stock, im just an installer at moment so the fine point details im sometimes rusty on.. im 99% sure on all info I gave ya, id just double check the number of camera inputs lol. Thanks again for watching! hope this helps!
I'm looking into installing one of these (DNX-575S) in my 2015 F250 that has factory Sirius XM. will I need the sxv300v1 to make it compatible even if I use the datalink rr?
if I remember correctly, you still need the sxv300.. the factory siriusxm on that vehicle cannot be retained by maestro.. just double check on maestros website it will give you a definite answer for your vehicle
Three things: The Apple Car Play app only shows up when you actually hook the phone to it? Can you change the start up screen like other Kenwoods? And lastly I did install this unit today (haven't played with it much yet) however the DVD looks like hell, not nowhere as clear as the older Kenwood units when you watch movies.
hey bass man, yes CarPlay on this unit is through the usb only. not wireless on this one. you should be able to change the start up screen through the settings of the radio. and I honestly didn't play a dvd on it to be able to give you my opinion.. I usually have no issues to quality of video... possibly a settings issue as well for the dvd portion?? im sorry I don't have that answer. thanks for checking out the video!
Since my last post, yes I did play with the settings and the dvd player is not as clear as my two past kenwoods, it is clear but not as sharp as my last two. The start up screen is not changeable thru the radio settings, there is a secret hidden menu you have to access: Go into standby, tap the icon next to standby twice, go to the bottom of the radio and next to the little 9 button icon press the screen twice, go back to the icon next to the standby button and hit once, go back to the bottom and hit the screen next to the 9 button icon once and the secret screen will light up!
Hey Jake I just purchased the same model Kenwood w/ a camera base on your video love it. Haven't install it yet I just it bought yesterday. I was wondering if you could tell me or send me some links on what I need for this Maestro...as i just bought the wrong one I believe. I bought the MaestroSW. Plus best buy sold me a PAC wiring for older model going to send it back. I have a 2007.5 Chevy Silverado 2500HD 6.6 duramax crew cab 4x4(newer body) with bose system stock radio. Love to see gauges on mine. Thank you in advance and sorry so long of a message.
you will need the maestro rr module along with the gm5+ wire harness:) this will definitely allow you to see gauges in your truck! Thanks for watching!
Jake Bradford yeah I went ahead and did that. I just winged it and that's what I needed. It's been on my duramax for a few days and love it with a review camera Awesome Sauce! No problem thank you for talking about it.
What iOS are you running? Specifically are you running iOS 11 or higher on your iPhone? I've heard of some problems with both Kenwood and Pioneer receivers and the newer iPhone. Your's seems to work well. Both companies have a page warning about this issue on there web pages. Here are those links Kenwood www2.jvckenwood.com/cs/ce/ipod/index.php and Pioneer pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Car/AppRadioMode
currently running ios 11.4 with zero problems so far (knocks on wood).. there always seems to be goofy issues reported with these companies everytime they do an update.. im always scared when I update my phone for these reasons lol but my iphonex with 11.4 has no issues.. thanks for watching!
@@jakebradforddesigns I have this model radio and I don’t know where to plug in the mic to the radio. Do you have to plug it in some where behind the display?
How did you program for the Navigation to come up with the steering control? I went to the iDatalink website for programming and did not see the selection to turn launch the Navigation/GPS.
hey buddy thanks for reply.. when using the maestro rr harness with a navigation radio such as the Kenwood.. when flashing the maestro harness and you get to selecting the steering wheel controls configuration.. one of the options that should be selectable is "display navigation screen".. hope this helps!
Jake Bradford In am going with the Maestro SW due to my car not having an original navigation system or electronic climate control. I will be installing the Kenwood Nav head unit. On the I idatalink website, I assume this is where you flash the SW device? Meaning writing the flash to a USB and the taking that to the radio? If this is all accurate, I did not notice the option to select Navigation for a button assignment. I assume this could be a difference between the SW and the RR version of the Maestro.
I never did ask.. what kind of vehicle do you have? and you don't flash to a usb. you plug the module directly into the computer and flash it from the maestro website
Truck drivers usually run 75 PSI in rear wheels and trailer tires on Semis... Never seen that much in a pickup before. Nice video, and clean install. You should have spent a bit more time on the Nav part..put in a address and show how fast it was able to look it up and give you map and driving directions....
Hey Danny , i dont like spitting out what I charge an individual on youtube but i can give you an idea of what you may be looking at.. shops charge roughly 80-125 an hour when it comes to labor.. looking at roughly 2-3 hours for what I did here ( sat tuner, in dash with maestro harness, everything soldered/heat shrunk/ tesa taped, usb cable to cig. plug, took the video image for back up camera from mirror and moved it down to the in dash display)... this is just for labor does not include any parts... I am far from the cheapest when it comes to my labor charges , but I don't think I'm the most expensive either.. I try to be fair on my pricing while also knowing my worth and what I can do when it comes to quality and attention to detail compared to local competitors. thanks for your interest and the comment! Hope this helps to some

in relation to the below post the dnx573s is in a 2005 F-250 super cab
could you show or explain on how to program the steering wheel controllers to have custom commands
purchase a maestro sw steering control module. you can then program button commands for whatever you would like during the flashing process.
Thanks for the video, I’m curious how you got the maestro to read your tire pressure?
the maestro harness connects to data wires of the vehicle and can read that information and it would display it on any maestro compatible radio
