It's your wiring and not the radio, I had a issue with my Bluetooth radio that it got hot fast and wouldn't play and that was because i had one of my wires hook up that wasn't for my vehicle
I just got mine at Walmart too 49 dollars 💵 it’s good head unit. That will not break the bank 🏦. But i will not purchased again. I will go for Kenwood or pioneer for my other car 🚗
Good to know all this. I just bought an suv and they bought me this radio because the one in the truck was messed up. So, waiting to install it hopefully this weekend. This is my first vehicle with a touch screen. No way is my niece touching it. Nice truck, I'm working my way up to one. Great video !!
Had mine hooked up for about a month. Not bad all things considered. I’ll need aftermarket speakers eventually, I can tell this HU is already wearing these down. Reverse cam comes in handy as well, only bad part is when in reverse it shuts off all music, unless you’re on a phone call.
I'm having issues in my car with this. When I turn my dash lights on, where the speedometer is and fuel gauge etc.., the radio loses signal. And on top of that, the bass is horrible. I've literally got no bass whatsoever even when I turn it up on the equalizer. Do you have any clues what I could do to fix it?
Where did you connect your power wire? It has to be a wiring issue. As far as the bass goes, All my speakers are connected to amps and the audio quality is good. I dont have any experience with this headunit without using amplifiers.
@@kthibs6255 Honestly, I'm not even sure where I put it. I'm gonna take it back apart today and see where I put it. Also, my stereo makes a whistling noise and it gets louder as I accelerate. Maybe another wiring issue?
@@SouthernBrother Yeah the whistling is definitely a wiring issue as well. usually that happens when power wires are ran next to rca cables that go to the amp. If you are not using an amp then im not sure where it could be coming from. Theres a lot of info about that in forums and stuff so just do a google search
1 to 2 volume is your phones volume.. turn it down to half plus a little. Replace the battery in your remote and it will produce enough light for the unit to read.
Yes, turning the phone volume down is a way around the problem. But its not how its supposed to be. And the battery is brand new, without direct sight the remote does not work.
@@kthibs6255 I won't argue about how it's supposed to be because it's not stated in the manual either way. New battery? In the package? If so it's the cheapest battery available in bulk and often already old. Mine works fine with both.. so to each their own I suppose. Peace.
@@toast-n-jam As far as the volume goes, mine does the same thing when using the radio. I also dont really mind that the remote doesnt work good, i would not use it even if it did. Its a nice feature but just not something that I want. The radio is a great deal, completely worth the price. Its just got a few issues that shows that its not a $200 + radio.
Is this compatible with a 2008 Toyota corolla S model? What kit would I need? Description doesn't give much information. And 8t does have the capability to mirror the GPS from your phone?
Hi you said it doesn't have the ability to say what is playing on the screen on Spotify for Bluetooth but I was wondering does the unit have the FM RDS capability if you're listening to an RDS FM capable radio station will it display the content then?
I just got one today too and I can not get any sound out of it. this is not my first radio I have put in and pretty positive its wired right. have ohms at speakers but no sound.
Just had my pioneer AVH4600bt die on me so I need a new double din. How’s the bass in this? I have aftermarket speakers and a 12” sub wired in the truck and want to make sure this HU bumps. Do you know watts RMS for this HU? Yes my HU was a $300 one but in comparison to sound quality how does this compare to the top of the line in your experience? I just can’t fork out all that money again. Any input helps, thanks for the video.
This radio dont have all the low pass and high pass filters like a pioneer does also i dont see any subwoofer controls at all tbh. Also the voltage on the rca outputs on a pioneer are higher like 6 volts which is good this radio is prob closer to 2 or 3 volts. So you would have to crank up your amp. This seems to be a good radio if compared to a stock on but when compared to a pioneer...The pioneer is on a whole other level bro its just better technology.
Hey could you possibly help me out with a question about the harness from dual? I was removing the radio to update the double din and the red wire/ pin came out of harness that came from dual and im not sure where it goes.
3:17 The remote is good! It's a two piece design. The ring is designed to attach to the steering wheel. The remote easily pops in & out of the ring for convenience. It was never meant to be a "steering wheel control".
I just bought this, and the only problem I have is that when I flip my had lights on or even the running lights, the head unit goes out and say no signal. I was just wandering if you had any problems like that, cause it seems to me your the only person who doesn’t have that.
Great review bro and the reason the volume does that is because 1 is considered muted and 2 is just regular volume 2. So if you had a regular remote and hit mute it would goto volume 1 ya know what im saying? Sorry to confuse lol.
I saw comments on sd card navigation, how about flash drive, same issue? And if you have music in separate folders, is it still a difficult task to find songs? Can I play a folder only and shuffle or whatever?
I just used the wiring harness that came with the stereo. I wired it all up myself. I wired the power wire and ground wire to my cigarette lighter, since the power should only be on if the truck is on, and I connected the 12 volt + wire to the one from the stock radio. The 12 volt + provides power to the stereo even when the vehicle is off so that all the settings can be saved. If you want a harness to make it easier, i would definitely recommend going to Crutchfield's website and entering in your vehicles information. They should have everything you need.
@@Solorexx There should be instructions that came with the radio that shows where all the wires connect. If the radio wont turn on at all, its most likely your 12v power/ground wire
@@mollyrhoades7644 the correct definition of homophobic is to “fear man”. Libs loosely and incorrectly tag the use of this word to imply a dislike of gays. I do not fear man nor fear or dislike gays.

The only major complaint is that the volume boosts for a phone call. With a 12 inch sub and amplified speakers thats a big deal. Scares the crap out of everyone in the truck lol

Hello Friend I don't understand About A Camera?
They sell backup cameras that you can plug in. They usually go right above your license plate

are you having problems with the radio? mine sounds really bad but it works fine with Bluetooth

Josh Lujan no it doesnt have sub only outputs. You can control the bass but its to all the speakers
@@kthibs6255 wow that sucks guess I won't be buying this :(
They sell this for 200 now..

No. if you buy the DVD radio one of the same brand u can play dvds tho
The dvd one is only $75 too
What song he playing
Levi Tysver mia paper planes
Your issue from 1 to 2 may have to do with the volume on your phone. Turn it down and it may fix it
If my car has a camera already will this work with that?
If you wire the camera wire up to it it should
how did you hook your sub up to it
Hi you said it doesn't have the ability to say what is playing on the screen on Spotify for Bluetooth but I was wondering does the unit have the FM RDS capability if you're listening to an RDS FM capable radio station will it display the content then?

double check the wires froom the radio harness and the factory harness adapter. hope you didnt cut your factory one best of luck!
You May have factory amplifier in your car. You need to bypass it or run new speaker wire from the headunit to speakers
I just got one today too and I can not get any sound out of it. this is not my first radio I have put in and pretty positive its wired right. have ohms at speakers but no sound.
