Excellent video, I have a 2018 F150 sync 3 with the 4" screen and I'm installing the 12.1 autotech unit. I was a little nervous moving the circuit boards from the old to the new because I have 2 additional circuit boards that control the buttons on either side of the little screen. I disconnected the ribbon connector and only use the circuit boards for the heating controls and volume/tune controls. I hope this is ok? Also I have a question I am hooking up a amp/sub so I assume I will connect the pre-amp output cables to the red/white rca outputs? Also for the amp remote line turn on wire I'm used to a blue wire, I see on the camera harness there is a ccd-12v do you think I should use this? When I get it connected I guess I could see if the power to the ccd-12v shuts off with the engine and it turn shut the newly installed amp as well. I can't wait to get this hooked up and get one of the wallpapers as well.

I ordered the same screen Oct 24, (today is Nov. 2) still waiting for the screen to arrive, the only con with Ali all communication is done through their chat messaging and they have difficulties understanding English. When they don't understand the question you're asking they reply "Don't understand what you saying". This could be a bit frustrating, because no matter how you rephrase the question their response is the same. Wish they had a phone number where we can call and ask questions regarding the order. But for the cost of the unit and savings you have to take the negative with the positive. Pretty much try and be patient and just wait for the order to arrive! UPDATE on screen arrival....The screen arrived 11/06....when I placed the order on 10/24 I received notice the same day item is being shipped with a tracking number. not counting the 24th, it took 13 days to arrived in Dallas Texas. By the way, make sure you're home when the package arrives it requires a signature. Tracking is a bit difficult, you get one international tracking number. Once it arrives in the Untied States you can't track the shipment because it moves to another vendor (UPS), and you will not be given an updated tracking number. It would be nice if UPS or the seller gives you the UPS tracking number so you can make sure you're available to sign for the package.

Hey man. I installed one of the 14.4” screens. Reaching out for some help. I’m having a song skipping issue. When using CarPlay and skipping the song (using steering wheel) it switches over to sync or some sort of radio static and then comes back to the song. If you skip the song on the radio or phone itself it doesn’t change over to any radio static. If I use the Spotify app on the actual radio itself the steering wheel controls won’t even change the song at all. On the Spotify app on CarPlay it will skip the song but it will still play the radio static in the background for that second and then switch. So it’s some sort of issue with the steering wheel control still wanting to run the sync radio or some sort of radio static when hitting skip on the steering wheel. Any idea?

Ya I’ve noticed some ads will differentiate sync 1,2 and 3 and others don’t. When you do purchase from them they will message you for your model and will also ask for a picture of your dash so they send the correct one. Also if those mofo’s message you and tell you they need more money because of the one you need it’s bs tell them your not paying it or you will just cancel the order. Happened to me and several others.

I’ve heard of some reseating their connections 2-3 times and 3 time it worked. If it saved the camera as vga and you try to do the reseating with no luck. Next step would be a hard reset.

I've had mine 5 months now and it will randomly just change inputs on its own. I will be listening to a station on sirius xm and it will just change. Any ideas how to fix this? I have contacted the manufacturer and was sent updates to download, but it still happens.
@f1fiftyjimmy9 ай бұрын
I’m assuming when you’re listening to Sirius it’s through the console app? Is that the only thing that changes is to another station?

My ZLink takes forever to connect to CarPlay. Always a minute or two stuck on “connecting please wait.” Anyone else?
@f1fiftyjimmy2 күн бұрын
Mine is usually within 30 seconds. I'm sure you have tried to reboot screen. Outside of trying a different device you could hard reset the screen. Are you on android 13?
@jjcollins3302 күн бұрын
@ I reset it, does come on faster (timed 45 seconds) but after a couple days without reset takes a minute or two. Or have to turn off and on Bluetooth. Just feels a little slower than it should be. Maybe I’m just impatient. Is there software updates that release that may fix this type of thing. The other strange part is my Bluetooth / music connects instantaneously. Like the music will start for 2 seconds right when I turn on the car, then it pauses for a minute or two until the CarPlay fully connects
