Completed the install of Command into my facelift w08 today (& shiney pedals, cup holder & auto dimming RVM
) but I've got a couple of teething problems:
1. The head unit can't see my cd changer - could it possibly be the power connection from the back of the Command? The magazine ejects from the cd changer so I assumed it's getting juice (unless it picks a live up from somewhere else for the eject function?)
2. The map doesn't seem to keep pace with the movement of the car - could this be the speed pulse connection? I picked it up from the passenger footwell (a green/black cable which goes into a blue connector). Is this the correct connection to tap into?
3. The backlights don't come on with the dash lights - could this be the canbus connection? The steering wheel buttons control the volume/radio station functions, so I assumed the canbus was functioning ok
Also, should the route direction arrows display in the console cluster display (the bit which displays the radio station etc)? Or is this something which only happens after the dealer has hooked the car up to the star diagnostic thingy?
Any help greatly appreciated
