ric Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Hey guys, Have the ICT adaptor for an aftermarket pioneer headunit (f900bt), but i'm unsure which wires to connect these into the current loom?? The adaptor was second hand and didn't have any instructions. If anyone could point me in the direction of these instructions, or let me know which goes where, that would be amazing! Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ric Posted March 12, 2011 Author Share Posted March 12, 2011 Cheers for the link mate!! So, even after reading that, im completely confused still lol! I have the Purple/Grey/White wires. The other wires are fine and connected, so its just these wires that are causing me issues. On the PDF document, they just point towards a white connector, with no real explanation of what that connector is. Does anyone know? Thanks in advance!

BulletMagnet Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Once you are behind the centre console, you will see the connector that looks just like the one in the installation manual, there is no other plug like that in there, so should be pretty easy. From memory, that connector is at the right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spursmaddave Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Just sent you the link to srobriens thread which should help, and as I said check the adapter is 29-020 not 29-007 or you will not get all the steering wheel buttons working Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ric Posted March 12, 2011 Author Share Posted March 12, 2011 Cheers guys, will have a nosey behind there this morning Its actually srobriens old unit I have, so have been looking at his thread, but it doesn't explain anywhere on there where the steering control wires go. Also been reading about the adaptor number, mine is the 007 one. I didn't notice srobrien mention it not working correctly, although i notice others have on here. I'll fit it, and see what happens! Cheers again, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spursmaddave Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 With the 007 adapter the volume will work but not the track selection it will go backwards on both up and down. Easy to swap just plug and play with the 020 then it all works As you have srobriens old unit you will jot have to update it but if you want the very latest software version then let me know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ric Posted March 12, 2011 Author Share Posted March 12, 2011 Was hoping it would be straight forward with the loom he has created, but having a headache already lol! How on earth do you remove the plugs from the back of the headunit? There are 2 of the 3 which just wont budge. They've got an odd tab on the top, which doesnt seem to move in any direction. I've google'd it over and over but the US models look completely different!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BulletMagnet Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 if you mean the OEM headunit, then you have to push the tabs in quite hard, or use a flat blade screwdriver to push the tab down, mind your fingers tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ric Posted March 13, 2011 Author Share Posted March 13, 2011 Cheers guys, unit is now in and working!! Going to order the newer steering wheel control wire, and think i might need a ground loop isolator as there seems to be some clicking when i brake, but apart from that, all is good!
