How to do the brake bypass on your Pioneer AVH Radio using a MicroBypass

[@RonnieSandifer]

Love that yall dont give a whole history of radios b4 starting to give the info people are actually looking for. You get to the point and I love it!

[@clevelandbarnett3975]

Appreciate the toggle switch reference brought a project car with the Bluetooth issue and didn't know why the toggle switch was wired to the radio 📻

[@atomicorang]

I smashed the like button for Fernando... He is a definite asset to your organization.

[@brod5352]

I have a Pioneer AVH 2330 NEX and the micro bypass worked like a champ. Grounding by itself was ineffective. Easy to install. Ordered from Amazon on Monday and had it by Thursday. Can't complain. It works!

[@danmeyer7174]

Hey man, very cool simple instructional video. No if, ands,or butts. You told me what I needed, no more no less.

[@FiveStarCarStereoInc]

daniel meyer glad we could help

[@sibhagourd4313]

I don’t see how, all I got was “hook these two, and hook these two” and then a microsecond of a visual of a bunch of wires narrated by “you’ll wanna strip em first, this is just to show you...” constructive criticism, if you’re making a tutorial it’s most effective to verbally as well as visually describe what you’re doing. “I connect the xxx wire to the yyy wire, then connect the aaa wire to the bbb wire, like this and then pause long enough for a person to see what you did. I just ended up being frustrated and ended the video right there.

[@chicago1680]

Thank you for this vid. I was like there is no freaking blue wire coming out my harness. Then you said blue/white remote..Now I'm gtg!! Works perfect. Now to hook up the camera gonna search for a video on that

[@leonardomagnifico9498]

Thank you guys, i ordered the component from Amazon and i’m waiting for it. i will let you know my feedback after installation. Very good job, congratulations.

[@ThisisMindoMint]

your going to do this and then your going to do this. Would have been nice to say your going to take green and connect to light green and so on. this video is just do this and do then and then we will do this. Well after watching over and over again I got it. Still giving thumbs up. Thanks.

[@silverdropstang]

$3 toggle switch from Walmart battery section. Green wire from radio (parking brake wire) to one side, ran another wire from other side to a switched fuse under steering wheel. That easy. Turn the switch on and off when wanting to watch a dvd while driving. Takes about 1.2 seconds to complete the sequence of on-off-on. Mounted the switch directly in between my front a/c vents so its super accessible.

[@entrenimientousaexclusivot7372]

I've been looking for a video like this the pass week and finally found one that explains all I need to install my pioneer ... thank you guys for a great video now if you can upload one where we can see all wiring process I will really appreciate it thank you again...

[@FiveStarCarStereoInc]

+Marcos Gomez do you mean wiring the Pioneer harness to an aftermarket harness?

[@entrenimientousaexclusivot7372]

yes sir... I'm trying to connect my pioneer in my 2006 ford expedition and i can't figure out how to wiring the steering wheel control kit .. or the bypass .. thank you for your response...

[@DarazsProductions]

So when you do the Method Turn On and Off are you turning the Engine on or just going to ACC and turning on and off like when programming a New Remote Key for your car ?

[@Leedes58]

Same question...

[@CvProdigy]

Did you find an answer? I have the bluetooth settings working but not able to do video.

[@keylomoon]

[@qpwodkgh2010]

It is. It's in the form of actual labor you will use up installing this little gem.

[@akamike102]

you guys are awsome love the way you explain stuff

[@neldacardenas8136]

You can also use a 3 dollar 5 pin relay for the bypass.

Cdogg2233 did you use the instructions in the video or did you take a diff approach?

[@tkdboppa7177]

It’s kind of funny .... five star audio uTube videos are normally first rate. However, this one actually doesn’t show a good close up of the Pioneer harness wiring connections to the bypass. The installer, is way zoomed out when he is doing the actual connections stating “you just connect this wire to this one etc.”. You can’t actually see how it is hooked up. Just some constructive feedback....

[@Crazygaucho62]

Easy way to test the micro bypass ! Thanks guys! I was having some issues, and wasn’t sure if it was working properly , you just saved me from pulling my stereo out

[@bazbakir2716]

Fernando is on another planet

[@cooptheihelper]

Never thought about hooking to reverse wire good idea

[@jbkeebs]

Does this allow you use the dvd player/stream a video without it being in park with the brake on?

[@berniemackattack86]

Notice this video is from 5 years ago. Would you recommend attempting this method for an AVH model that released in 2020.? The AVH 521..

[@Zerbey]

Thanks for the easy explanation, any other car radios have this feature or just Pioneer?

[@smokedogg19821]

Thank you so much for this video it works perfectly

[@coreymiller6666]

For the toggle switch, do you hook up the light green wire that is on the wiring harness directly to the toggle switch?

[@Ricksvids]

Will this Bypass eliminate the issue where I have to park and put on the break in order to watch a DVD?

[@FiveStarCarStereoInc]

Yes it will.

[@paulweston8184]

@notchjohnson1Yes, he did and that was not the purpose that they were describing it's use for in the video. They were showing it's purpose as to unlock screen features that you can not use while driving. They didn't mention anything about eliminating the need to park and apply the ebrake in order to use the DVD player. So if you are saying that he is spot on at his assumption, you have a correct statement.

After connecting my bypass an information message pops up pretty much saying please don’t use this while driving and it’s an ok button but the ok button is grayed out and it won’t allow my mirror link only can hear sound

The System Remote Control wire and the Ground wires, do they also need to be connected with the ground and rc wires from the harness for the car? My Metra Toyota harness also has a ground wire and a rc wire, do I connect them too? Or tape those off..?

[@justmyself1000]

Thank You! Works perfect!

[@MishAli10]

I'm wanting to install a parking brake bypass on a stock ford stereo. However, when I located the green, black and blue wires I found there was either conduction shield or what I think may be called bare wire running alongside these three wires. Question is.. how do I deal with the bare wite when installing the parking brake bypass? Please excuse my verbage and terminology - I'm new to this. Thanks for your time.

[@mikepickard909]

Can you elaborate on the part where you say "So now you're going to take these two here - connect them together... you're going to do this, and then you're going to do this"?

Does the vehicle parking brake wire have to be sliced or does this bypass it completely?

[@zpwslayer9719]

You still connect that black ground wire to the wire harness also right? Like when you are wiring your head units harness to the factory harness you simply add that by pass black to the headunit and factory harness correct?

Can you still use the remote wire at the sametime for the remote wire for the amp.

[@mrstangblb]

Great info - but I'm curious. I have a Scosche SU03B harness that has an orange wire and an orange and white wire. The Pioneer AVH-200EX factory harness has ONLY an orange and white wire. I have the A-TRIG1 relay connected correctly, but do I need to connect the orange and white wire and leave the orange wire disconnected, or should I forget both of these wires? I know they are for illumination and have nothing to do with the bypass, but I'd like to know how to connect these orange and orange/white wires. Thanks for any help!

[@FiveStarCarStereoInc]

Just connect the orange/whites together and leave the orange capped off. You will not need it.

[@BoyOfBass]

Hi guys really appreciate your videos! I have an issue my microbypass works but it won't seem to save my clock etc. and always asks be for language on startup. Any advice? kind regards Aaron

[@FiveStarCarStereoInc]

Aaron Eccleston it is not the bypass. It sounds like the yellow and red wires are backwards. The radio is losing memory but is still working. It is still getting power on both so it will turn on.

[@vincentmagallon]

Take a test light and find your constant 12v and connect the radio's yellow wire to that..the red wire goes to your ignition wire, remember, always use a test light

[@MrJoshbaker14t]

Ever have one backfeed and keep radio from shutting off with ignition?? Worked fine before bypass install

[@deebomiller2u]

I just received my AVH-W4500NEX and watched your Vid. I am new to this so once I do the on screen touch of the lower left hand corner I DO NOT NEED the BYPASS to have full function. Thank you in advance

[@m.u.ezs-works3387]

How do you bypass JVC head unit.?

[@BigRichardsGentlemensClub]

What if I dont have an amp or anything hooked up to the remote wire? Will it work if I just plug the bypass wire into the remote wire on the head unit if the remote wire isnt hooked to anything else?

[@user-wc9oc1gc9z]

I just bought the 4200NEX and everything works except the sound. Would the lack of connecting the parking brake wire cause this?

[@christianfleegle7748]

In the instructions it says to connect the vehicles black wire to the black wire from the radio and the black wire on the bypass. Is that true? I hooked this up and the check engine light came on.

[@esylsten]

Hooked this up on my Winnebago RV with the AVH 3800 but now the parking brake alarm go's offon the RV, and I can't get it to shut off so had to disconnect the ground. Would it matter if I don't ground to the black wire and ground to radio frame or something?

[@demillevantigo7432]

Instructions with my micro bypass say that I have to connect one of the wires to my BLUE/White amp turn-on wire on my pioneer radio. HOWEVER, my car also requires a 5V STEP DOWN which is also supposed to be attached to the BLUE/white wire. Will these 2 connections live in harmony? Or will they screw each other up?

[@mrjason3171]

Thanks for this video. You guys have the best videos for stereo installation. Question I have is if the green parking brake wire is connected already. Do I disconnect the parking brake wire and tap the green bypass wire to it. Or keep the parking brake connected and tap the bypass wire to it?

[@FiveStarCarStereoInc]

Disconnect the wire going to the break, only connect to the bypass

[@Ronin_Jay13]

does the black wire connect to the other black wire from the harness?

[@FiveStarCarStereoInc]

Yes it is the ground wire for the bypass

[@aceofdrace]

What about the third black wire? Theres one from the bypass, one from the pioneer and one from the vehicle harness.

Ok guys question installed pioneer AVH-7800 and all new door speakers front and rear. Just noticed tonight the rear door speakers and factory subwoofer which I installed new subwoofer as well r working but not the front door speakers. I used the easy factory wire harness setup plugged all wires right and made sure I connected speaker wires + & - so should be no issues on anything being crossed. So I seen something on a page about unplugging back speakers and it all works and others things I seen but not sure where to turn from this point I didn't know this was going on til someone pointed it out to me cause truthful rear speakers r loud but I want all speakers to work right.

[@FiveStarCarStereoInc]

Do you know if it is standard mode or network mode? You can check by going to see if you have balance and fader or just balance. What type of car is it in.

[@blackhawkdown2666]

+Five Star Car Stereo not sure which I think I figured it out the store didn't have the correct harness and gave me another one to try and so now I have the one they said was for mine the first time but was out of stock. Mine has factory amp and now I have the amp bypass harness which is 2 harnesses. Does this sound right to you guys

[@FiveStarCarStereoInc]

+Brian Murphy what type of car is it?

[@blackhawkdown2666]

+Five Star Car Stereo 2002 Chevy Tahoe 2wd 5.3

[@FiveStarCarStereoInc]

+Brian Murphy it should have worked with out bypassing the amp. If you bypass it you will have to get an amp for your sub. Check the balance and fader

Hello I just pick this up I wired up to my pioneer avh241 ex it won’t work Do I have to ground it to a different ground instead of the factory wiring ? Thank you

[@billhoffer320]

If you do not have an exterior amp do you connect the blue/white wire on both the car harness and stereo harness to the microbypass or just the blue/white wire from the stereo to the microbypass?

[@FiveStarCarStereoInc]

Bill Hoffer depends on the car, it may have a factory amp or an antenna that needs the blue/white also. To be safe I would connect both, car and bypass to radio.

[@jensen3944]

Sorry if this is a dumb question...my understanding is that the 3 black ground wires from car + radio + bypass should all be connected. Does this mean I don't need to ground any wires to chassis?

[@FiveStarCarStereoInc]

Jensen yes they all go together. The one from the car should be a chassis ground.

[@jensen3944]

So, just to confirm you are saying the connection from the factory + new aftermarket car harness is already sufficient chassis ground (no need to wire to radio bolt/screw etc.?) Thank you for your response.

[@FiveStarCarStereoInc]

Jensen some Nissan and Toyota do not have grounds otherwise you are good

[@jensen3944]

Now that I'm looking at my wires it's actually looking like there is no black ground wire on the aftermarket car harness I bought. Now not sure where to go from here. Should I just ground the aftermarket radio's ground wire to a bolt? Then not sure where to connect the ground from bypass since on the bypass instructions it says to connect black ground wire to black ground on radio and black ground of car harness. Since the car harness doesn't seem to have one can I connect it to a splice in the same black radio ground that I'm bolting?

[@FiveStarCarStereoInc]

Jensen ok, yes that car needs a ground. Go to a bolt, connect that to the bypass and the radio. All will be good.
