i just installed a low level adapter for a subwoofer in my Egg (non-vav). As i was reinserting the radio the hood indicator came on about 1" before "clicking" into place. I heard this could be a microsensor telling the alarm the radio is missing. I also had the interior lights shut on and off as i was working on to fix the problem.

My 98 came with a JVC aftermarket; don't like the look. I consider putting a stock radio back in.
Was installing my new radio and somehow the lights for the buttons wont come on when the headlights are on. Is there a fuse i can check? Where is it located? I checked under the hood but i didn't see a fuse for dash lights.

View 5 RepliesI have an 08 RX350 with navigation and premium sound. I bought a Kenwood DDX8901HD radio along with the TYTO-01 interface and the ASWC-1 to try and keep my steering wheel controls. I removed my old radio easy enough. Installed the TYTO-01 made all the connections and now I have NO NAVIGATION ANYMORE NOR DO I HAVE AC. It says check AC connection.
View 12 RepliesFirst, the Touareg navigation radio has two AUX inputs, plus a telephone audio input. One AUX input is an AUDIO/VIDEO input. The other is an AUDIO only input. Below is a photo of two Dietz cables connected to the two different AUX inputs:
How to actually connect these cables and what parts are required would be too lengthy a post for this thread. So if you want to know these details, click on the link shown in my signature below.
I am trying to install the amp and subs that I have. The radio doesn't have a rca jack on the back and I don't know which wires I am suppose to splice into.
by the way I just purchased my 2011 Corolla S 2 weeks ago n loving it!
Check brakes light came on at 46000 miles the other day. Not really sure what replacement brake rotors and pads to put on? Should I go with OEM or aftermarket? put on rotors and pads from Hawk? and how do you like them? Are aftermarket better than OEM parts?(longer lasting, less dust, ect..)
View 12 RepliesWhile I'm waiting for my new Touareg (a few weeks...), I'm asking if it's possible to install a DVD reader in the rear console (between the two front seats, useful for rear "children" passengers). I'm talking about this kind of DVD reader "all-in-one", with the 7" screen included (it folds inside when not in use). The size of the equipment is the standard A1 for Europe: 70 inch wide, 19.6 inch height and 73 inch deepth. Obviously, I'm thinking to install inserted in the rear console, below the air vents, in place of the controls for the 4 zone air conditioner that I didn't ordered.

View 3 RepliesI am attempting to install an XM Commander in the ashtray area.
I have Spockat's wires and all the proper stuff, but then realized that I have never tried to pull apart the TReg to expose behind and underneath the console, ashtray and footwell area. There seem to be two main things:
There is a horizontal piece of plastic that runs the length of the side of the center console. At the footwell end of it there is a cut out piece that is locked back into place. I assume this somehow snaps out and allows you to pull off the plastic trim. How this piece removes?
Then just above the gas pedal there is an odd screw that holds the carpeting in place. It has three "holes" in it and it appears it takes a special screwdriver to remove it. Taking this out and pulling back the carpet seemingly would allow me access underneath and behind the center console area which is where I was wanting to place the brain.
I didn't want to start jerking and pulling on pieces hoping that they just "pop apart"...
I was unable to find any posts talking about using the radio's line out (non-amplified) signal to send to an aftermarket amp. Any links or info would be great as I plan on performing my install soon and I really want to avoid using a line output converter (on the radio's amplified outputs).
View 4 RepliesJust started my car after dropping off the boy at school this morning. Now The radio is dead and i have a red airbag indicator on. Thinking this must be related somehow. where to start looking to resolve this could it be a fuse, or does it sound expensive to fix.
View 3 RepliesJust installed the smoked tail lights on my '07 Treg. Installation was very easy per the instructions on OEMplus. I did a great job from that standpoint.
Got one issue, I check the 'Check Lights" warning and I think its due to the fact I tested the lights before I had all the new ones installed and hooked up. Do I need to take it to the dealer to have something reset via a computer or will the check light go away with some driving, which is what the dealer said.
I have a 2009 Corolla LE and the radio does not work. It keeps popping the fuse for the radio under the hood. Is this a common problem? If not any system wiring diagram? I am about to take the car on a big trip and if I cant get the radio to function....its gonna be a long ride...
View 1 RepliesI need Vag-Com to reset a failed lamp warning light . . . I'm assuming because I ended up pulling the switch out too far, which commands the rear fog light to come on, which doesn't exist, I caused the "lamp failure" warning light and chime to come on and NOT GO OFF (I installed my new Euro headlight switch last night).
I checked and have no dead lamps. I put the old switch back in for a bit but it's still reporting a failed lamp. I searched for this problem before posting but the search engine on this site is extremely poor ... .Couldn't find anything in the manual either. It assumes we're idiots because it says a certified mechanic should change the lamps but oh, carry extras with you !!??
have a 2005 Reed Green V6 w/Equipment Package #1 (Includes Sound System I and Bi-Xenon Headlamps).
The only trouble I've had so far is a very low "clicking" coming from the front driver door speaker when the radio is on. Otherwise, I've enjoyed the vehicle a lot.I am also looking to install my IPOD so that I can play it through the radio...
My Touareg has Daytime running lights, and they are functioning, however the DRL indicator is not illuminated. Is it supposed to be illuminated all the time or only when the DRL malfunctions? If it is supposed to be on all the time, could it be a VAG-COM adjustable issue? The DLR in the instrument cluster never comes on, not even during start-up.
View 2 RepliesYesterday ,when I got in the car an indicator lit up in the MFI saying Key battery not found. and a key symbol came on on top of the MFI screeen,and stayed on . Car started and ran fine.When I stopped and restarted the car all disappeared and normal. I could not find this key symbol at all in our manuals.
View 2 RepliesFor the first 10 or 15 minutes after starting the truck I hear a clicking noise under the hood about 1 or 2 clicks per second. It's kind of a mechanical sound, maybe like a pump working. Could this be the Webasto heater working?
View 1 RepliesMy T-reg has the winter pkg with the heated steering wheel. Is there some kind of indication light that comes on that lets you know the heat is on , I can't see any indication ,and it seems dumb to not have one . Like having heated seats w/o a indicator light and having to wait till your butt heats up to see if they're on.
