      Hi! I got a new radio, it’s similar to this one. The blinkers and the lock bottom work fine. I don’t know if I did something wrong, but the radio itself seems like it’s not working. I need some help, please!🙏🏼

    My radio is similar but there's three wires that connect to the green circuit board also, where or what are those wires for? The manual isn't specific at all. I'm think it's to test the radio for power before installation? Manual said something about it but there's no red wire, it's orange white and black that connects in but wires are open with no connection that the wires would go into. Any help would be greatly appreciated. BTW great videos, very helpful, and much appreciated 😊

    At 11:17 yours isn't like mine, it's soldered directly onto the green board. I had a hell of a hard time getting it in and at one point thought I plugged it in the wrong way as I could not get it back out. Glad I eventually got it to seat properly.
    I think my canbus may be bad. None of my steering wheel controls are working.

    • @BigBensCarsAndCycles
      @BigBensCarsAndCycles  Год назад +2

      Hey glad to help, you can pause the video where I show the wires connected on the back. They all fit in 1 specific spot and can't be mixed up. Except for one. Take note of the "ugly colored harness" and make sure that's plugged up where I had it. And I believe you need that one attached for the camera but I could be wrong. You can check the manual to be sure. I don't have it anymore and I'd have to pull the radio out to check. If you look at my video "project Focus clutch actuator replacement" I show a possible way of routing the camera wiring into the car

    Do you think the 8 core would be a significant performance improvement or no? I had the slowest one (1 gig ram 4 core or something) before i sold my last Focus, and LOVED it and used it every day for bluetooth music driving to work but the Nav was really slow and it didn't have carplay. I didn't mind it but my passengers complained about it. Do you think it matters how fast it is as long as I get the one with CarPlay if I just want music, GPS and the big screen?

    Always unhook your vehicles negative battery before installing and always tape the end of those wires that you didn't use. They'll receive power during certain functions and short out. That's more than likely what caused the blown fuse. Good video other than that. Thank you sir.

    Does it work well with the steering wheel volume buttons etc? I'm glad you did this video!
    Also I can't find your video on whether this was a good buy so I have a few questions that I would really love for you to answer if it's not too much trouble my friend.
    1: Are there any negatives to owning this?
    2: Does this work with the built in microphone in the car or does it need a new microphone fitted?
    3: I love the idea of the upgrade but worried I'll regret it and have to fit the original back in! Is it much better and responsive enough to feel like it was always meant to be there?
    4: Also do music and radio stations sound any different after fitting the new stereo? As I love the current sound and worry it will be a lot worse.
    Finally what company would you recommend buying it from? I'm from the UK but on ebay they seem to sell these under so many different names that I don't know which one to trust to work.
    Thank you for reading this mate and I love your content! Apologies for the questions but I have been wanting to ask someone who has this stereo these questions for ages as I have been wanting to buy one for ages and ages but the stereo are like 200 odd pounds here and that's quite a bit of money to spend on something that I haven't seen many reviews or complaints about haha

      If you can get it on amazon, they're good about returns if you don't like it. It's worked fine for me. Steering controls work. Sounds about the same as the factory radio, I do still have the factory speakers. It comes with a mic you plug into the back

    Have a quick question Ben. My stock radio had two antenna cables that look similar one is yellow and the other black, all videos I’ve seen so far only have one. Which factory connection one do I connect the aftermarket radio to? Any help would be appreciated.

    • @BigBensCarsAndCycles
      @BigBensCarsAndCycles  8 месяцев назад

      Maybe one is for the GPS antenna. If you have nav. I'd try to match colors. Or try one and see if you have radio reception. This radio has its own GPS antenna

      double check your connections. Theres a connector for the blue box which can fit on top where the "big ugly harness" plugs into and create a short circuit

    I appreciate the video! I just picked up a 2012 Ford focus se sedan. It's got the 5-speed manual. Wicked nice little rig! Your channel has been great for doing some repairs! I'm looking into a cat back exhaust system. Do you plan on doing a video on this in the future!? I'm sure it would do well on here if so! Definitely going to order a radio like this from Amazon, this video surely makes life easy for the installation! Thanks for all you do! 💯
