[@andyharding8973]

Really helpful video. Needed this to help wire the fm antenna! 👍

Im glad I came across this video i bought the same head unit and conenects2 bundle, and I'm going to tackle it on the weekend this has been helpful

[@HarryNixonTube]

No worries. Be sure to check out my other video about making the unit sit flush in the dash. This was by far the most frustrating bit! Good luck.

Nice video! I’m wondering where are you based and would you offer to quote for installation of a connects 2 for my civic ?

[@cedric1138]

The system remote control is not a live wire, its for controlling the amp volume if you go down that route, there is already a dedicated blue wire with a bullet connector.

[@HarryNixonTube]

Yes. You are right. Just had another look at the installation manual. But it does supply enough power (or do something) to the aerial to make it work correctly. Or through some sort of small voltage loop it does. I'll have a look if and when I pull it back out for the correct connector.

@@HarryNixonTube I stand corrected, just tried it on my own radio and the blue/white wire works perfect.

@@cedric1138did the dedicated blue wire work? I connected it to the blue white and it didn’t

[@MissionKid]

Connected that blue wire to the blue and white wire it worked for about 5 mins then it stopped any ideas

Hello Harry ! Can you please help me , ive got a pioneer allso and steering wheel controls dont work my head unit has a 3.5 jack on it . Change date an time WORKS . Volume and next hannel does not .

[@HarryNixonTube]

I've no idea pal. Sorry. Try unplugging the connects2 unit plugs, give them a blow and reconnect. Check all your connections thoroughly. Mine just worked. Volume can be a bit sluggish, but it should work. Get in touch with connects2 if you're still having issues. Their customer care is good.
