Pioneer AVH-120BT Multimedia DVD Receiver with 6.2 Inch WVGA Touchscreen Display and Built-in Bluetooth© for Hands-free Calling & Audio Playback
Android Smartphone compatible, USB and Aux input, back-up camera input and 2 x RCA preouts
Enjoy features such as built-in Bluetooth® for hands-free calling and audio streaming. Audio/video playback from USB and DVD sources. Safety features such as back up camera ready and much more. Bluetooth Hands-Free-Calling and Audio Streaming Stay safe and obey local hands-free laws with built-in Bluetooth (HFP). When a registered Bluetooth device is in close proximity to the receiver, the auto connection function automatically pairs the two units.
From hands-free calling, wireless audio streaming (A2DP) with artist, album, and song search, simple pairing, and control audio (AVRCP), Bluetooth® wireless technology has made life in the vehicle much more convenient. The AVH-120BT with Bluetooth also includes better call quality reception using the new Wideband Speech Handsfree Profile 1.6. Nearly doubling the bandwidth of the frequency helps bring call quality similar to FM reception. Other features include the ability to browse music libraries on smartphones wirelessly. Android Music Support Users of Android devices running operating system 4.0 or later can connect and listen to music stored on their device to the AVH-120BT without the need for an app. The process is made possible using Media Transfer Protocol (MTP).
MTP allows the receiver to recognize the Android smartphone as a music storage device. Users can now access music via USB stored on an Android device and operate basic operations like FF, RW, Play, Pause, Random Play, and Repeat. Metadata information such as track, artist, and album name can be displayed. Song, artist, time and album information are beautifully displayed on the 6.2 touchscreen. The system's wired USB connection provides direct digital signal transfer from the device for clean, clear sound while providing 1 amp of current to keep your iPod/iPhone charged.

Disconnect the negative, not the positive. Also when using butt connectors, it’s best to fold a quarter of the end of the exposed wire into the terminal for a more snug connection! Great video otherwise tho!

[@DrMeowsif]

thank you! there was a couple pieces of the manual you cleared up for me! personally though i usually solder my connections, takes more time but its more fool proof if i install too rough.

[@darby322home]

Thank you one of the most helpful videos I came across. You my friend are a godsend.

[@prjab7339]

Awesome video! Excellent explanation on beginning to end!!!!

[@jondillinger899]

O and if u ground that pink wire to the back of the head unit u can use DVD as u drive just saying

[@whatluck1508]

I bought a radio, not knowing it uses wires to connect the steering wheel controls, how would I wire that up with the rp5 gm11

[@89vette1]

i have a rp5 gm11 but its smaller and black. It also doesnt work. the reverse trigger wire always has voltage on it forcing the alpine to display the rear camera. Crutchfield is sending me a new one. I assume the black on is a newer unit

[@orangejuice1262]

You disconnect the negative on your battery

[@lalofresh3705]

Any info on parking brake input + and parking brake input -? Thanks

[@randygregory7826]

good vidio. My problem is I have the RP5-GM11 for 04 envoy. My new radio is a Boss audio which has no where to plug in the steering wheel input on the back of the radio. Acording to Crutchfeil who sells Boss this harness should have worked. any ideas. This factory radio is not bose, just factory GMC.

[@KarsenKiefer-xu3ux]

ehh... still doesnt show on the pac modular how to use steering wheel controls. mine is a pioneer and have to hook up to a computer to set controls

[@elijahperez159]

What are the RCA wires for? Nobody mentions them, ever

[@christianhubbard8444]

Used this same harness on my 03 Sierra and it cause my fuel gauge and oil pressure gauge to quit working

[@NooWayyMann69]

Honestly it's probably the cluster itself. Gm clusters have that problem

[@nhikkeyfayloga327]

I have a 2005 Colorado, i did the harness but i dont have the module, and i dont have power to my aftermarket radio “DUAL” Do i need to buy the module so i will have a power??

[@drequannhill4190]

I want to put an aftermarket radio in my 2004 Chevy Impala SS, and the problem I see most people have is that the stock radio also functions as the onboard computer to reset the oil change. Would running this interface help with that issue?

[@JoseGuappo]

I wired it exactly like you did but my head unit turns on super dim and then shuts off after 5 seconds

[@carloszamudio244]

Why my pioneer keep turning off when I turn the volume up?

[@user-kc9ss9ky5r]

Why does all of these videos no one actually talks about the steering wheel control wiring. The most talked about issue with everyone and none of these people making these videos even talk about it?

[@jondillinger899]

I feel like I just watched car audios version of the verges how to build a gaming pc

[@angelmc6268]

Please help, does this work on 2017 chevrolet trax?

[@craftypegasus]

I used the same pac and my d pillars on my tahoe wont come on any suggestions?

[@VaughnJohnston1999]

Do you have Bose amp or non Bose amp? You have to put the thing in the correct hole on the unit itself

[@Micheal3134]

On my after market radio I have a 12volt wire that didn't come with the radio but when I splice it to my 12v cigarette lighter it messes with the gauges and turns on my anti theft system if I use the pac for my car model should it fix that issue

[@angelocoviello8446]

Same did u figure this out

[@Micheal3134]

@@angelocoviello8446 yes I had to buy the PAC unit and it worked

[@prestonptomey4007]

Would you happen to know if it works for a Pontiac g6?

[@unknown-user61830]

no unfortunately u would have to buy a pac c2r-gm11b but same process

[@jondillinger899]

Never use butt connectors solder

[@eternalmartians2959]

That's a myth
