[@rutransoy774]

Hello, I bought myself the same player on the Opel Insignia. Tell me please, how did you connect this player? I said the connector to the manitor, but it does not turn on.

[@courtneyg06]

It's pretty self explanatory how to connect. If all the wires are connected correctly and it's not turning on, it's probably faulty.

[@EndCodeTv]

Do you know if there is an updated one out?

[@dj_Elias]

Hello, can you tell me, if you have connected the original GPS antenna, or another one ? If it is another one, which is the correct place, inside the car ? Thank you !

[@courtneyg06]

I used the original and I opened the compartment next to the glovebox and stuck it to a piece of chassis metal. The signal was perfect. I don't have pictures as I sold the car last year.

[@dj_Elias]

@@courtneyg06 Thank you !

Have you got a picture of the back of the unit, I brought one of these and have no manual, I wanted to see where all the wires are to be connected

[@courtneyg06]

I don't sadly

[@EndCodeTv]

I just set one up was easy basicly you can't mess up where the 4,6,8 pin go due to the fact there is only one place they can go. The Mic goes in the small hole the antenna goes in the large hole. It's pretty straight forward

Hello I know this video is old but wondering if I install this unit in place of CDC400 of my Insignia will the parking sensors still work? can I still have access to the vehicle settings? like the door locks (open the 4 doors or only driver's door lock etc...) kindly advise

[@courtneyg06]

Hey, I think I still had access to most of the settings. If I'm honest, you get access to about 95% of the original settings.

[@crocopio]

How is Radio? Are You still happy? Thanks

[@courtneyg06]

Yeah, I sold the car but it was a good radio. It crashed sometimes but overall I liked it. If you buy one, get one with a lot of RAM,android devices can be very slow at times.

[@crocopio]

Thanks a lot. for how long have You been using it?

[@courtneyg06]

I had it for about 2 or 3 years

There are different units that support Sport&Tour Buttons, if you're still looking to find it, this one specifically is for models that don't have those. Aliexpress you are able to find them.

[@rencuska2012]

Hi. I have bought a very similar unit. But we lost indicator, parking sensor, other warning sounds. Do you have any advice how to fix this? Thanx

[@courtneyg06]

Tbh sometimes the speaker for the indicator sounds etc would become detached so it was just a case of opening the system up to reattach it. They don't use high spec components so don't expect these units to last too long.

[@crazyplpredictions]

I am in the same situation. Not even parking radar sounds. The question is if I find the connection for those speakers ( probably loose) where to connect it into this new unit?

Thanks Ben

So it did work and now doesn't?

[@Skuddz]

@@courtneyg06 Not exactly. The whole device works fine. However since I have installed this unit there is no sounds for those above. It would appear there is no sound track? For those noises. With the original head unit those noises are played through the speakers. I assume there is a sound saved on the system which is triggered by certain protocols and parameters. With this system I presume it doesn't have those sounds saved and doesn't trigger any noise... as I'm sure you can tell, I don't really have a clue why it doesn't work. I'm just hypothesising
