You're so close to something amazing here!! Ditch that dingy FM transmitter and hard wire the phone's AUX out via CD player in. Just gotta find the leads on the EHU after the MOST connector. Someone did this successfully a few years ago... just gotta find that post on SC.
@SaabUnleashed4 жыл бұрын
This is actually an option. It depends on the technical capabilities of the installer. The FM transmitter is a no-frills, throw-it-in option. If you're more advanced, I highly recommend going direct to the aux in
@SaabUnleashed4 жыл бұрын
Ok, I'm actually going ahead and including this with the package
@djfremen4 жыл бұрын
@@SaabUnleashed the issue with the antiquated FM transmitter is interference (eg driving near an airport). A direct link would be much cleaner. Although you'd have to hit the SRC button once without hijacking the CD changer (Assuming you disable CD via Tech2, as it's normally two presses).
The CD changer on a 2001 to 2006 9-3 is a fibre optic unit and is on the MOST ring. Use the Aux input instead (may need to be enabled with a Tech2).

Amazing mod!!!... As a 93 2004 Aero and G3 owner for years this might be the most useful upgrade Ive ever seen. But please consider G3 graphic card heating issues which is cost me 2 main-board mostly crash itself to black screen. My humble suggestion is; give it some free space on installation. Take the back cover out, use some aluminum etc... Bad luck Ive ICM2 :(

And if you switch the frequency on the oem radio with the steering wheel control, how do u return to the frequency of the fm transmitter?? U saved on a number before modding the unit?

Hi Do you think it would be possible to add DAB to this?, I have a OTG cable that allows for charging at the same time as using a USB device, so my thoughts are to add DAB via an adapter and downloading an app to the phone
@justcarkits45323 жыл бұрын
He is using an LG mobile phone. This does not have DAB support. The Android cheapo Chinese USB DAB receivers are appaling. Have seen many of them and without fail they have very poor reception. The software app is also flaky and ergonomically challenged. You may get it to function over OTG, but would doubt it.
