Yep, always gotta find a unique way to tackle it

[@kmemz]

Two bonus ideas: 1: Get a female connector with a screw clamp, and drill the trim out right between the radio and the vents, and have a port that will be much slower to wear out. 2: run the line to the popout ash tray where you keep all that spare change, and keep a bluetooth adapter handy inside. If you need to turn it on or pair it to another phone, just pop the ash tray. If you need to charge it, pop the ash tray and unplug it, or sneak a 12V cig plug with a USB brick in behind the trim and run one of those cables to the ash tray as well.

This is cool, but a much easier (although more expensive) way is to remove the stereo and just plug in an antenna/aux adapter box. Unlike a wireless FM transmitter they don't get interference and only cost about $20.

I call that quality compared to the $5-600 they charge for it. I can't believe I've wasted this much of my life replying to this. .lol

[@frankbuehner7880]

Just added my MP3 aux but by spicing into the internal wiring harness from the CD unit to the MB. I'm not a solder guy. But still, tiny wires. For my wiring, the Sony harness has 3 wires separated from the others, a 13 wire harness. A R, a L, and a G. Used a tap but the wires are so thin they were cut so I had to adapt a pinch splice. It works and I have what I wanted. I have a 1999 Olds Intrigue with a Bose dual CD system that all the big guys avoid. This is a sophisticated CD, tape, radio and now I'm happy to have this added feature with all the others unaffected. Yes, you have to make a blank CD.

Hey, great option for people that don't want to go aftermarket. I tapped into my cd changer harness in my 2005 Honda pilot.

Do you think I could eliminate the ground loop if I disconnect the ground wire going into the cd changer harness?

If I understand you correctly it would be better to cut the ground from the bluetooth device as it draws less current than CD Changer and the bluetooth device will then ground through CD changer so should then not have a ground loop

[@The512MB]

Great hack there. I was wondering how you'd get the radio to listen to your inputs since normally the CD mode is disabled unless there's a CD playing - but there you go, you solved that by simply giving it a CD lol. Might I suggest also to cut the traces from the CD player so as to prevent your phone from feeding the CD output or vice versa (thus disabling permanently the CD player). I have a very similar radio and I thought I'm less likely to listen to AM, so I'll try and find the traces from the receiver and use those instead. If not possible, it's still very unlikely that I'll listen to a CD anytime soon.

[@speedkar99]

+The512MB with the CD output silent I don't think too much harm its done, though I see your point. AM is crusty sound and mono, bad quality, I tried it.

[@alexandredumoulin8868]

speedkar99 Hey, Completed the hack successfully with the AM/FM route. There were no testpoints for either the CD paths or the radio paths (however there were for an unpopulated Dolby paths, not installed in that model). The CD paths only had really small vias to solder onto and it did not end up working. With the radio paths I expected some noise but it turns out that when the jack is plugged, the signal from the radio (be it white static or actual content) is completely eliminated. The sound quality from the AUX is high quality and no noise/distortion is noticed, unexpectedly. Thanks for the inspiration!

speedkar99 ohh okay thanks man

[@stinkycheese804]

There is much wrong with this. 1) It is often undesirable to have a cable permanently soldered on when you could have used a panel mount jack or better still a bluetooth module tapped into a 5V circuit. Even a bluetooth linked, FM transmitter to the stereo tuner as an input would be as good as a permanent wire hanging out. 2) You should not feed the cable through the stamped out hole on the radio metal housing (with sharp edges that can cut the wire) without a (nylon, etc) bushing to protect the wire. 3) You cannot just use a multimeter to measure continuity and determine that way, that a remote location on the PCB is an acceptable solder point. Continuity does not rule out there being a resistor, and a resistance is quite common to see on the typical opamp preamp type subcircuit you would find in analog audio before the power amp IC stage. It may work for you THIS time, but it should be mentioned that it only applies to this radio, otherwise a resistance, not continuity measurement should be made to ensure nearly 0 ohms (within the error of the meter leads and probe tips).

[@speedkar99]

+Stinky Cheese thanks for the tips. I prefer to have a male wire attached, since you'll still need a male to male cable to connect to a female panel mounted port anyway so why complicate things. My continuity tester does measure resistance and it read no resistance. What I didn't show was I physically traced the connection from the CD port along the motherboard to endup at that solder point and there were no other components along the way. I didn't randomly just test points on the board.

[@anthonywbelcher]

Great video thank you. Just a thought, instead of soldering wires onto the radio circuit board would it be possible to solder the wires to the wires on the 8/12 pin socket of the CD stacker in the trunk.

Can you still listen to your regular cds even with this installed? Sometimes when I’m doing short trips (reference being my previous car which did have an aux port, my “new” one does not) I’m not going to bother plugging my phone in, wait for Spotify to open and scroll till I find what I’m in the mood for. I just listen to whatever cd I have in, all of which are for bands I really really like so I’m always in the mood for them. And there is a band I’m very fond of that is only available on cds. I don’t want to have to go through KZbin and waste my data every time I want to listen to them, especially when I own the cds already. Also my vehicle is a 2003 Subaru Outback with a 6 cd changer.

I did the same but disconnect the audio from the CD. When the mobile is paused, I have some interference noise. What I can do? it is not the cable because when disconnecting from the mobile it stops making noises.

[@donder999]

It's natural. Your cable naturally collects noise from electrostatic fields (interfering signals are superimposing to the signal) if the cable isn't shielded enough against it. It's mostly noticeable when some metallic, skin, etc.. material (those which is able to conduct electricity) make physical connection with the AUX cord's jack plug. If you leave it alone the amplifier's noise reduction will comes into operation and you won't hear any interference because the noise is so low that the amplifier will cut according to the low threshold and SNR set.

I saw your other video, can't you go to the fm module every time? asking as am looking to ad AUX + Bluetooth to 06 Sonata and would be great to override radio when phone rings.

[@speedkar99]

+Newbies Work on Cars That only works on some cars that had the cassette tape playing over the FM signal. Ideally you'd add some sort of switch that mutes the FM signal so it doesn't feed back into your Bluetooth module.

[@shclumbachus3706]

hey how did you figure out which wires inside the aux correspond to the left channel, right channel and ground? is it the same for all auxes or does it vary? i just don't want to solder the wires in the wrong spots. also hilarious video man

[@speedkar99]

If it's not marked then trial and error

[@dadsgrant209]

I wanna do this EXACTLY to my 07" RX350 right now bruh!🤦🏽‍♂️

[@benzboss5668]

Wow thanks so much I’m ordering a cheap radio with Bluetooth after watching this lmfaooo

[@speedkar99]

How cheap do they get?

[@benzboss5668]

20 bucks look on eBay brand new with free shipping.

[@benzboss5668]

Then I’m selling my stock head unit also on eBay and the whole change is free when I get my money back. Boom! 😀

[@xXUsojXx]

Why didnt put resistances? If you don't install them, is there a chance to break the phone?

[@speedkar99]

It'll be fine. Resistor make it quieter

[@dennismarfo3536]

What is the use of a car stereo player with a flash disk slot then?

[@speedkar99]

Floppy disk?

[@mastercreations7]

There is no LINE OUT LEFT AND RIGHT mark on my pioneer CD player Board.. How I can get that?

[@speedkar99]

Trial and error

[@nopparuj]

speedkar99 OMG NO NEVER, please don’t use trial and error. You could put 12V DC directly in to the aux port and kill your devices. Don’t do it, don’t even try it.

[@mastercreations7]

Now I am playing my aux cable with speaker out put line on my board... connect aux cable to that and turn on FM.. plug aux to mobile and now playing my mobile songs.. Now work well...

[@asshoIe94]

I got a $10 Bluetooth at Walgreen's. Best shit ever.

[@speedkar99]

Sound quality?

[@asshoIe94]

@@speedkar99 Great sound with little to no latency.

[@freejoey123]

How did you determine which wires were which on the aux? Also, how can I determine what to solder to if I don’t have a test tool?

[@speedkar99]

Pin out for the aux cable is standard. Trial and error to be honest

[@freejoey123]

speedkar99 thank you my friend. Is there a method for trial and error? Like, do I have to solder then put the whole thing back together and test or is there a simpler way?

[@motube2389]

Too bad I have auxiliary port in my car :( :) Great work as usual ....

[@speedkar99]

+moe raw haha thanks !

[@4_years_left]

Shouldn't you be able to, theoretically, simply splice into the wires that those solder points on the motherboard connect to? Wouldn't that amount to the same thing?

[@Simon-cv9hv]

Hey dude, so I have tried to do this trick but I encountered a problem: when I plugged my phone in, the audio was coming from my phone. But as soon as I removed the connection from the car sound system, the audio stopped coming from my phone like it would be working. Any ideas?

[@speedkar99]

Thats Headphone jack detection on your phone Try a different player or disable it if you can

[@WISHBONEL7]

Does any company make an adapter that will simply go into the CD compartment , with a built in aux port ?.

[@speedkar99]

Not as easily.

[@stevetaeza4158]

creative work as usual

[@speedkar99]

Thank you very much

[@kevinfetner7983]

Great stuff....been wanting to do this with a factory CD/radio 1995 Dodge truck vintage. Most of the vids on this are the same; find the left channel/right channel and ground as close to where the CD player connects as possible. If there is no AUX display on your head unit, then I guess you have to use the blank CD to 'fool' you head unit into playing from your mp3 player. Do you have to burn anything onto the blank CD, or just format it....what?

[@speedkar99]

Burn a silent track so it doesn't eject the disk

[@AliensGotTheBeat]

did this to my 2004 Corolla and i get ground noice whenever a function associated with electricity is pulled off, wipers, turn signals, window operation, they all introduce cracks and sparkles in my speakers, but hey its all cool while the car is parked

[@LG1ikLx]

Personally I think it would be better to have a 3.5ml extension then with the female in you could drill a hole and stick it into place so you just have the port on the dashboard and then use a second 3.5ml double sided aux lead.

[@florianalia8319]

Mine from my dad's car, from an 2000 audi, does not have nothing labeled. I checked so much time but it only has G for ground and SW+ and SW- and some S+ and S- And i don't know what to do now!!

[@speedkar99]

Trial and error! that's what i would do

[@florianalia8319]

speedkar99 I'm afraid that i could damage my phone when i plug it in. I measured a small voltage of around 200mV and that's why I'm afraid!!

[@jamo8896]

Lela Mario plug in cheap crap to the cable and test it then if it blows it up it doesnt matter

[@AugustusCardoso]

So simple. Just did this in like 27 seconds

[@speedkar99]

I got a better one coming up next month
