The culprit for unit crashing is either low ram or overheating. Since you don't use your AC on hot sunny days, the high heat is probably trapped, goes into overheat mode and shuts down. Some units now come with a fan to help lower the temperature.
I have the same model and 3 takeaways for your 3 cons.
1: the glitches. Most of these will have some bugs and unfortunately it’s part of it. Some people have done firmware and CANBUS updates with success.
2; the AC is supposed to pop up when you touch your physical buttons. It’s a pop up menu from the bottom. Go into settings and Factory my pin is 3368. Or respond to this and I’ll find the exact steps. It works.
3: fitment. Unfortunately you have to be very careful when you are installing. The plates that connect the screen to the harness need to be placed specifically. THEN you need to add bolts for extra space to create better fitment. Took forever and was annoying but my fitment is almost perfect.
Thanks bro! Will def give your suggestions a try. Appreciate you 🤘
My sound goes off and on… do you know how I can fix that?
@@tonykingkeo5816 I’ve tried two things.
The reset buttton
Swipe down from the top of the Home Screen. On the far right you’ll see a reset button. That one works best.
Last is a a complete system restore and reset.
@@efraing2482 thanks
@@ChristianMastrile ruclips.net/video/OPKALn4fEy8/видео.html here is a video of how to turn the AC controls on bro
1. Idk if you tried my method for the ac but i put steps in your install video
2. I also have a 09 and have same fitment issue
I think it shuts down when it overheats, so adding the cooler should solve the problem. I don't have that problem but like sometimes when I turn on the car music sound doesn't come up (once a month), if I tweak it sometimes it helps, other than that it is really worth it.
plus I have a 360 panorama camera with it and it works really good.
I have a 2012 and I have the DVD player with the screen which I’m super happy with. The Bluetooth connects automatically with my phone and all that but the one feature which I wish it could do is be able to play RUclips while driving. I listen to a lot of music there but the screen goes blank once you put it in drive. Otherwise would definitely keep the stock screen and controls.
Drill new hole on bracket to adjust the passenger side get some self taper screws.
Car looking good bro 🔥👀
dang it says on the amazon listing in the pictures that it wont fit my model for some reason
settings -- Car infotainment -- about device -- click the setting icon at the right corner, input PIN: 8888 or 8878, click "OK" -- CAN type-- Select No.204 option -- save
Try that for your AC bro, same thing happened with me but after I did this the air conditioning app came up and now works fine
Sounds good will def give this a try thanks bro!
No worries, I spent ages speaking to the suppliers to try and figure it out lol, hopefully it worked for you
Do you know how to get the rear window defrost to work ? I have the front
@@TheKevinmcwill will be on the same app bro as the buttons will all be on the touch screen
@@carzrule14 yeah I added them to the ac app screen but they don’t let you click them. Only modes that work are the ones I added to the screen that let me cycle threw with the click knob
ordered but will take it to an audio shop for install
your Lexus is awesome bro keep up the great work it and nice looking head unit
Did you figure out how to change from Celsius to Fahrenheit in the A/C app?
If you have a stock screen navigation you should you grom vline for apple carplay and android auto, if you are like mine 2009 with no navigation this screen is good.
I just mainly use my head unit for mostly music and spotify (from my phone) and if I needed gps, waze, google maps or something then I'd just use my smartphone. I am a music nut so I will not give up my car audio for this.
How did you get your ac buttons to light up. I can’t get mine to light up.
👌🏾 the go to move huh lml
Dayummm looks like I won’t be Getting this unit Goodlookin on that
Did you find a better one?
Can you set it up so that Apple CarPlay pops up/connects as soon as the car comes on?
where did you get the carpets?
I heard the audio quality is not as good as the oem one
Audio quality has been pretty good compared to OEM on mine
how about the audio? like i mentioned earlier i do have the Mark Levinson audio. I really don't wanna lose this by installing this headunit. Is it still possible to keep the original amplifier and CD?
Maybe the GROM Vline 2 would work better for you?
I need the carpets, where did you get them?
Did you change out the radio yourself?
will you add a reverse camera?
Am watching this video because am gonna buy one for my 2gen is 350👍🏼
My stock 2022 Honda Accord radio crashes and I have to restart the car 😂.
Where you get the carpets link?
are you still able to have the back up camera?
Grate that u added inn u had base model headunit .
I still looking for upgrade that's decent for the screen version .
Ive just installed one of these and the AC controls don’t work and steering wheel controls don’t work either. Only the hazard works. No lights on theses controls like the video either. Can’t see any ac control function thru the apps on the stereo either. I also have three plugs deft over that seem to have no use
Does the heat work
Does the cd player still work
I have an autosonic android head unit for my Lexus is250 but it doesn’t work quite right for my car. It goes off and on whenever I’m driving off hills or going through curves. It’s really annoying. Any idea about what might be wrong?
Lose connection somewhere
What I have to do to install apple carplay?
Audio wise, how is it??
Audio sounds great! It offers a ton of options for adjustments (bass, highs, lows, etc.) to customize how you want it
Thanks for the info.
I just installed this today. But I'm on Android 11. Feel free to ask questions if you are planning to install.
i do have a Mark Levinson audio and i would like to use that instead of the internal amplifier of the new headunit. is that still possible ?
How does ac and rear defrost work? I’m planning on installing one too
I just installed mine a few days ago and can’t get the AC to display on the screen. How do i make that happen?
Does it connect with stock back up cam?
Does this have Android auto?
My ac can’t turn off so I been driving with the ac on almost full blast but can’t you plz help me on turning it off or help me fix so could control it
Push on that nob that rotate, press on it to turn off the AC. The first nub. Press on it, it will turn off the ac
How do you turn on the heat
Yow
Rams to low
