I have a 2003 Navigator and I was using an Alpine IVA-D310 with no problems. I just received my Pioneer AVH-P4400BH so I removed the Alpine and installed it in my Altima.
I connected everything in the SUV and when I went to power the unit up with ACC, nada. Double checked all the connections and noticed I somehow managed to tie the illumination ground into the remote/ignition. Well, obviously I blew the fuse and replaced it. I believe it was #32 (25A).
Now that I replaced the fuse I still don't get anything. The fuse hasn't blown anymore though.
If I connect the remote/ignition wires to the 12V constant, then the unit comes on. Although, it obviously doesn't shut off.
I was thinking of temporarily adding a switch from the 12V constant to switch the remote/ignition on. Once I flip the switch the unit powers on. However, once I flip the switch to shut the unit off, the deck still stays on. ????
Anyway, I want to get this ACC issue resolved. I checked all the fuses that concern the radio. I belived it was #7, #22, and #31. There may have been another although I can't recall at this time. They are all good.
I have a DMM, can I put the + end in where the fuse should be for the radio and make sure they work? Which radio fuse should be on an Ignition switch?
For that matter, what other fuse or extra fuse has an Ignition switch tie in? I could just tap into that.
Thanks
