    I woke up this morning and found that my aftermarket stereo had fallen backwards out of the housing and into the dash. I guess whoever installed it (I'm not the original owner) superglued it in place instead of screwing it in. This video is awesome. Thank you!

    Thank you for the video!! I also had the problem of the "immobilizer active" message. It should be noted that in the video the red wire coming from the add a circuit is also connected to the red wire (non switched power supply) of the OEM harness. My car went nuts, then I noticed the radio remained on regardless of the ignition switch. I just cut the red wire coming from the OEM harness, leaving a clean supply of 12v coming only from the fuse panel, and voila, problem solved. Now it works as it should, the only drawback being the fact that I cannot listen to the radio with the ignition switch off. Also please correct me if I´m wrong but I think that the position of the add a circuit in the video is reversed since the 12v come from the upper terminal of the fuse slot. Cheers!

      Hi, I'd like to ask some questions if you could answer me:
      1. so to avoid the immobilizer issue, I should only use the power suppy from the fuse panel, and leave the red wire on OEM harness disconnected?
      2. In this case, how do I connect the power antenna wire(red thin wire in the video)? Should I also connect it to the fuse panel?
      3. What do you mean by saying you think that the position of the add a circuit in the video is reversed? How to connect the add-a-circuit?
      Thanks!!

    One thing to keep in mind is the Power cable must not be strightly wired in or else it will constantly pul power 24/7 without an alternative to turn it off (no shutting down the radio manually wont do the trick) this is why he puts the fuse into the ignition so the radios power sourse is tied to the cars ignition power. Hopefully this helps someone!

      Yes, it helps :) The problem I have with that is when you are parked you need to have the key on ignition in order to use the stereo. I don't think that's a good idea. On the original unit, you just push the knob, and is ON. Any idea how to work around that?

    Edit: I redid the janky wiring with a fuse tap adapter and it works just as it did before. Which means that I didn't break anything, but I also didn't fix anything lol. Still unsure why my locks don't work right.
    Original comment:
    I just bought a 2008 Jetta SE and whoever set up the aftermarket radio just jammed their red wire under one of the relays. I think it might be affecting my power locks. Do you think rewiring it with one of those "Add-a-circuit Fuse TAP Adapters" would allow my locks to work more reliably?

    If your memory does not work then you will need to have a second add a cercit from the fuse box to have the 12V constant(instead of having a 12V constant from the wiring you by pass that and get the 12V from the fuse box and if you have the other switch power add a circuit NEED 2/BOTH then you will have memory and turn off when you turn the car off)

      Also there is a difference between the red accessory wire on the radio and the yellow power 12v constant wire on the radio. Yellow wire is on constantly, powers the radio, and keeps saved data in the radio. Red wire is the accessory or ignition wire to trigger the radio to turn on when the key is on. Because this specific video didn’t use a smart harness, there is no accessory wire behind the radio (vehicle runs in a canbus data system) so this is why we ran a red wire to the fuse box for accessory power to trigger the radio to turn on with the key.

    Do you have a video that shows how to connect to the parking brake switch in this vehicle? Thanks

      In our updated video (link in description), we show you the smart harness used that provides that wire for you. Other instances you can just ground it (except for Alpine's and Pioneers)

      I apologize if I didn’t see it but I rewatched both videos. I’m using the Crux adapter and I think you just said connect wire for wire I have a really long green wire from the pioneer DMH 1770 which says connect to the parking brake. Is there actually a wire In The Crux I attach to or must I figure out how to get the handbrake assembly apart? I’ve read elsewhere the little bypass devices don’t work on this model. Thanks for your help! I’m so close to getting this completely set up.

    Does it matter which antenna wire you use? I see you used the single antenna adapter like what I have. But my stock wire harness has two leads.

      If you only use one lead the reception will be poor and only FM. I replaced mine with one with two leads from Aliexpress. Now it works good and I have the AM also.

    My AVH 4100NEX would not turn off when I turned my 07 Jetta off, and because of your video. I finally got that problem fixed. Thank you!
    Question though, it seems that my unit asks for the password every time I turn the car on. Any ideas why?

    • @ProvoBeastAudio
      @ProvoBeastAudio  2 роки тому

      Sounds like you still have a wiring issue as it's losing memory / constant 12v each time you turn off your vehicle. Get yourself a multi meter, and check to make sure the yellow wire is constant 12v (on all the time), and red wire of the radio is only getting power when you turn the key on.

    • @ProvoBeastAudio
      @ProvoBeastAudio  Рік тому

      See the updated version of this video linked in the description. The right way to do this would be using the correct smart harness which provides the accessory red wire which turns the radio on when the key is on.

    Hi does anyone know if a single din radio requires a wire running to the fuse box? And also do I need an extra adapter for steering wheel controls?

    • @ProvoBeastAudio
      @ProvoBeastAudio  5 років тому

      No, not required to run an additional run to the battery / fuse box as long as you use the proper wiring harness adapter. For steering wheel controls, yes, i'd use the PAC SWI-RC module.

  • @alexgreen7459

    For the red wire that you used for the fuse does it matter the gauge size of the wire?
