Very nice video. I have a 2002 as well with 334k miles on it. Unfortunately, the interior got a little busted up after taking it to a mechanic. but I'm planning on fixing it up a bit and installing a double din radio to modernize it. No reason to let a good car go to waste ;) Especially at 334k miles! She's got plenty of life left in her

I'm having a hell of a time. Perhaps you can help me out. I have an 04 Cavalier and we purchased the wiring mount and a Dual (brand) double din bluetooth stereo. We wired it all up, then plugged it in with the wiring mount. The stupid thing wouldn't power on. We could hear the cd player power up, but then nothing. We thought the stereo was bad, so we took it back and got another of the same one, plugged it back up, and still nothing. The fuse is fine, and we're pretty sure the wiring is right (unless we bought the wrong mount). It simply won't power on other than the hearing the cd player kind of engage. Any idea what might be wrong?

Id really like to make this my next project, but i have a couple quick questions. the orange wire in the beginning, just don't use it? And what exactly is a t tap, and what is the video playback when the parking break is activated for? lastly, A rear mounted camera, would that be a possibility in this build? i figure i might as well go big or go home if im gonna be doing all of this haha
@ProvoBeastAudio
@ProvoBeastAudio 8 жыл бұрын
The orange wire (illumination) isn't always used, and wasn't used in this install. We used the blue / white (dimmer) wire that dims the screen when the headlights were on. The Radio didn't support an orange wire. A t-tap allows you to tap into a wire without compromising the wire itself. Instead of cutting into the wire for the parking brake, a t-tap allowed me to tap into a wire without cutting it up. Pioneers require a double pulse ground for the parking brake wire in order to watch videos on the screen and this wire (bright green wire) needs to be attached to the parking brake. Finally, yes, a reverse camera is totally doable in this build.

I've installed the exact same stereo in an '03 Cavalier. I found out the hard way that the parking break wire is also needed to access the bluetooth settings for the stereo. If you ever want to unpair a phone with the stereo, you'll need to connect that wire to your parking break, or at least ground it.

You cannot just ground the green wire on a pioneer, they require a double pulse negative signal and simply grounding the wire will not work. If you want to bypass the video warning while in motion, you will need a microbypass or a manual toggle switch to reproduce the double pulse negative.

Everything I read online says the factory radio harness does not have a keyed 12v source so you have to find one ? Is that true
@ProvoBeastAudio
@ProvoBeastAudio 6 жыл бұрын
Yes, which is why we installed a "smart harness" to provide that at the radio harness. These vehicles run on canbus data system, not analog. If you do not want to buy the smart harness, you can run a line to the fuse box and tap into switched power.

Generally 2000 and newer moved over to a canbus system where the door and warning chimes operate through the factory radio, and there is no longer an analog ignition wire behind the radio. So this requires the chime adapter which also provides the red ignition wire behind the radio.

This is a really good video, very clear and detailed, thank you! I have a 1999 and when I measure the height of the radio (from outside the dash), it's 3 inches. Is that a 1.5 din? And if so what do I need to look for when getting a new radio?

You need to either run a wire to switched power in the fuse box or tap into the cigarette lighter postive wire. That is where you need to connect the red wire. It needs to be hooked into a source that turns on when the key is on.

@ProvoBeastAudio 8 жыл бұрын
Check to see where your radio's Red wire is connected: this wire needs to be connected to a power source that is only on when the key is on. That will be your issue. Disconnect it wherever it is connected and a source that is only on when the key is on, like tapping into the cigarette lighter positive.

do i need a chime to get power to the after market radio? i don't care to have it ?
@ProvoBeastAudio
@ProvoBeastAudio 8 жыл бұрын
Well the issue with these GM vehicles (depending on the year) is that they have the canbus system, or the data signal to the radio. There is no standard ignition wire to turn on the radio on this 2002, so the harness used in this video provides not only the chime, but also the turn signal noise, ignition wire (red wire), etc. You can get away by running a wire to the fuse box to locate switched power just so the radio will turn on with the key. If its too complicated, the simple method would be just to buy the harness. Hopefully that helps.
