This worked for me. Apart from slicing up my fingers and thumbs trying to get the keys out from the radio, it works perfectly without compromise. The only thing I will say is that the sound only came out of the left speaker (even though the radio audio was unaffected) but I managed to redress the balance. And I was able to feed the cable through the closed glovebox door. Thanks again.
For anyone thats coming here doing this, I did mine today. No issues at all fortunately. Used this method but you don't need to remove the battery cable so you dont need a code. Also, I bought the cable and the keys off amazon for about 10euro. Great Video! Thanks for this.
@@PedroCosta-wr5nf I think it might've been these: www.amazon.co.uk/Adapter-MP3-Player-6000-CD-Gold-Plated-Auxiliary/dp/B00I9BBU0Q Just make sure you're careful when inserting the keys as they aren't very sturdy and can bend easily.
Dont usually comment, wanted to say cheers for this mate. Obviously not the best guide in the world by any standards😂But helped me to know what im doing, if anyone gets confused with the ten pin not fitting i had to dismantle mine down to the bare connector and break off some of the bracket inside the car. Bit of electrical tape and all is good😂
got to love this vid, obviously it is your first car so you aren't going to be an expert, but good for you for getting stuck in and sorting it out. did you get a bluetooth adapter for it yet?
Yes I did Sam. Thank you for that, I really appreciate what you said. I did get a Bluetooth adapter just after I had installed the wire thingy. if you are in the search for an adapter I can recommend you a really good one.
Hey, yeah, most likely with Ford models around the same time production time will have the same "make up" of build, that being a similar build stucture behind the radio.
not sure if i can be of help, as it's been a while. But if I can remember correctly there should be some what of a grid like portion at the back, and maybe there's like a un clampable clamp containing where the aux lead plugs into. sorry if that didn't make any sense, but lemme know how it goes :)
Can you clarify... You say you needed a cable with a 10 pin connector but at several points in the video you can see it's a 12 pin connector you have fitted in the radio.
Fred Dyslexic sorry I have the 06 Ford Fiesta same as this it had the aux button but no input anywhere and I really do not know what to do all I want is to play music through my phone but how 🤣
Sorry for the late response, if all is well and you sorted it out proud of you 😂😎 but I mean if you learnt nothing from this video, of which I dont blame you, the cable in the description is all you need, and with some keys to access the back of the radio, you should be able to clip the wire right on into the back of it, then feed the wire(left of the console) to the cupboard thingey, there should be a little plastic poke able hole, feed it through then to garnish it of, place the aux male port through, and job sorted.
Edited: This may help some people who do this mod and find it doesn't work.... Problem is the pins on the radio are quite small in diameter and the inserts in the connector can be too big so they don't make contact! I had to dismantle the connector on the cable and press in the leaf on each insert to get my cable to work.
@@318d the tiny electrical contacts inside the connector are small square tubes that slide over the pins in the radio. On one side of each tiny tube there is a section pressed IN to make a thing like a leaf spring that wipes/presses on the pin when it's inserted. On the other side there is a similar section pressed OUT so that it acts as a barb preventing the contact being removed from the plastic. I took a photo so I knew how it went back together. Then I carefully pressed in the barbs which are visible through holes in the plastic and removed the three contacts by pulling gently on the wires. Then I pressed the leaf springs in a bit to make better contact. Then I levered the barbs back out so they would still retain the contact in the plastic block. Then I pushed the contacts back into the plastic. The contacts are small and easy to break so do the at your own risk. You need tiny tools like micro screwdrivers and a scalpel to lever the barbs out. There is a photo here that shows similar contacts but slightly different design. This photo is taken of the leaf spring side. The barbs side is down. hackaday.com/2019/02/28/inside-the-secret-world-of-crimping/
Right. So basically what I failed to say in further detail when getting the radio removed, for me anyways, it extremely difficult. You just have to keep being persistent and also make sure your putting them in the right. Sorry for the late reply.
I think in the video he shows the keys being inserted the wrong way around. I think they should be straight side out not in. You may also need to pull the keys slightly outwards/apart.
@@SuperHacker0007 ah ok. I checked the car manual thing and under the aux section it says it should be in the little compartment behind the cupholders but mine doesn't have one. But there is an aux button so i dont know where else I could find it
@@nbslyer-rm9ne I've got the pre facelift model. Yesterday I was changing the radio. Never experienced such a pain in the ass. You practically have to disassemble the whole front panel. 😀 The thing is I don't even have an aux port, I use a transmitter.
There will be a little card with the code on it that comes with the car and it should be inside the booklet/wallet. ALSO. if you lose it, you're basically stuck and I'm unsure of a method to reclaim the code.
