[@theneuz3131]

You should tin or coat your soldering iron with solder , thanks for showing where to connect wires for the mod

[@calais321]

@@brooklyntaylor2247 no i ended up buying a plug in radio transmitter, which works very well was only like $35 has little hard drive, plug in, and bluetooth etc.... Just get one, honestly i was shocked how good they are, no static nothing.

[@TheTechGuyYT]

How ?

[@HDXFH]

i did this ages ago, works well

[@andyc5612]

Nice work mate. Definitely having a go.

[@micthegreasemonkey2918]

Ok first thnxs 4 the clip. Im no electricity genius but tell me if im wrong but the point in doing this exercise is so u can run music from your phone throu the factory unit. Y im asking is cause u wasn't vert clear on this. Thanks.

[@TheTechGuyYT]

Yes it provides you with an Aux connector

[@james.n4940]

After trying it out, my 6 stacker won't load cds any more. Not sure what couldve gone wrong.

[@morphshag]

I did an aux mod to my VZ but I didn’t have to dismantle the stereo, I just took the first panel off and soldered to the PCB.

[@dsnow01]

Hey mate. I tried to do this but i doesnt work. I followed this exactly. Got good solders on all points. But when i connect phone to aux the cd goes quiet but no audio comes out. Any ideas?

[@TheTechGuyYT]

+bleeblah what volume level was the phone at . As the vplume beeds to be maxed out on the phone

[@TheTechGuyYT]

+bleeblah also do the speakers crackle when ypu plug tge aux into the phone

[@dsnow01]

MARINLAW yeh there is a small crackle when connected. Volume is maxxed. Oddly the phone doesnt detect that anything is connected. Typically it will show a small headphone icon at the top but it doesnt.

[@TheTechGuyYT]

+bleeblah try a different phone

[@carry1389]

hey man cool vid, just wondering if my cd player doesnt detect cd's anymore think the lense is stuffed will this still work?? Regards

[@blakeotoole806]

yeh dude

[@travisrccar112]

What wire goes where on the aux cable?

[@jcramond73]

Hi Marin, another vid talks about removing a resistor that should remove the need for the blank CD, can you confirm this? Cheers

[@TheTechGuyYT]

+J C no it will still require a blank Cd sorry .

[@jcramond73]

Np mate, thanks for the reply.

[@TheTechGuyYT]

Any time

[@MickB235]

@@TheTechGuyYT I tried a blank disc as well but the unit says check disc then spits it out

[@kaylafaulks7922]

If it comes up with no cd all the time that's a pain plus no cd player. And u need a blank cd to use aux.can u not join a few wires from the wee wired harness that came off the CD player part. I sure there would be combo u could work. I mite look at this my self

[@rubenfilippus2956]

Can I I have the picture where you put those wire's?

[@haaaahn]

tried everything to do the same mod for a VX head unit with no luck, maybe if you could help me with this! thanks and keep it up

[@dirtyoff-roadaustralian5525]

Hi mate great mod I recently had my stereo system blow up my tools hit the battery and blew it up I’ve got another stereo system from the wreckers and haven’t got the security code but 1111 works for a short time My question is do you have a code I can use or what could I do Cheers

[@TheTechGuyYT]

Believe it or not Holden can help you out there’s no universal code , give them a call

[@dirtyoff-roadaustralian5525]

The Tech Guy thanks I’ll call them

[@joscanlon5118]

Where do l find where to put Aux cord from stereo to phone

[@allabadi88]

Which one of two white cables is for the right speaker , and which one is for the left speaker ?

[@TheTechGuyYT]

+fuad allabadi at the moment im unsure as it doesnt say on the board . But You can test it by touching the wires and see which one buzzes . Either way it doesnt matter to much

[@antonamalfi]

So touching left wire to ground should make the left speaker crackle?

[@psyrg]

The chip is a TDA7348, the data sheet shows that the left channel is the one closest to the back of the unit.

[@rajivbelling5994]

What if the aux cable hasnt got a negative just left and right

[@TheTechGuyYT]

+rajiv belling then its a mono plug and the wrong cable you need one with the negative

[@MickB235]

Hi there I performed this mod on my crewman stereo but ran into a problem. It works kind of but as soon as a track is finished on my phone, which was what I was testing it with, it starts playing the music of the cd and it won't resume until I switch it all off and restart it it's almost like as soon as a gap in the music from the phone is detected it defaults straight back to cd music Any ideas?

[@88kwthomas]

you're supposed to use a blank track cd

[@MickB235]

@@88kwthomas I ended up replacing the factory unit with a Kenwood receiver Bluetooth stereo with android auto on it

[@ESISTTIGER]

Took some screenshots of the solder locations probs gonna get an elecky to do it haha just cause I'll screw it up.

[@iamasmurf1122]

Bombadore Garage why bother those factory head units are garbage , remove the thing and put in a 2 DIN system , one I bought was a pioneer $439 on eBay , it has DVD/CD , and has applecarplay so I can pair it to my iPhone , and can connect up a rear view camera with a Aux port , a aftermarket system is going to be far better , also remove all the factory speakers as they are low quality gutless things , and put in a decent 5 channel amp and sub , probably cost $1,000 why fuck around ?

[@TheTechGuyYT]

Because some want to keep the stock look . Especially on on the limited editions

[@ESISTTIGER]

@@TheTechGuyYT exactly, I am not a fan of aftermarket stereos cause they look so out of place plus if I upgrade the speakers and add 2x 8" parcel shelf subs I have fittled with stock commodore headunits from VT-VZ they have inconsistent quality some are great some a shot no 2 are the same quality

[@nathanclark209]

What cords do i need to buy to do this job

[@TheTechGuyYT]

Depends how long you want the cord . A 1.5 meter 3.5 mm to rca would be fine cut off the rcas and connect those wires to where I showed in the video

[@nathanclark209]

Ok where can i buy this cord from also will this work with a factory VY 6 stacker

[@leroysimpson9480]

If you don't know where to buy an rca cable you probably shouldnt be doing this...

[@ucakee]

@@TheTechGuyYThey could you possibly provide a photo or link to the typa of cable you use as I’m having trouble finding the same kind of rca cable with 3 wires

[@paulwoodhouse3617]

I have a VYII and have had two different head units crack in exactly the same place on the lower left side. I wonder if anyone can advise why? Is this a moulding issue from manufacture?

[@TheTechGuyYT]

+Paul Woodhouse its Very thin plastic

[@antonamalfi]

It’s a crumbledore issue…

[@96078763]

Has anyone tried this on a 6 Stacker?, thanks

[@TheTechGuyYT]

It will work the same

[@dennismook5521]

I did everything you said and now my radio only turns on but plays nothing so thanks for fuck all mate

[@TheTechGuyYT]

Then you did something wrong , because many have done this with success

[@mjr1965]

They're capacitors, not resistors !!

[@helenellsworth9556]

Just buy a headunit and be done with it, so easy to put in

[@richarddarrah9368]

U realize u can buy a bluetooth stereo and fitting kit for 120 bucks nowadays we not in 2005 any more

[@TheTechGuyYT]

+richard darrah thats not the point of this video smh

[@antonamalfi]

Why would you spent $120 when you can do it this way and get better sound quality?

[@jptv8738]

Double din stereos arent 120 bucks buddy

[@TheTechGuyYT]

I'd keep the stock head unit before I purchased a $120 one lol

[@KJPage]

Oh my God my eyes were bleeding watching this terrible butchering :( .-.-.

[@ESISTTIGER]

I was in tears telling myself it was for a good cause
