hi,
so after doing the mod from the diagram by "quezacotl," i turn the car on to test it. the screen comes on with "i agree," as usual.. but when hitting the map button, it saids "no external system connected" and then a blank screen.

did i do something wrong? do i have to put the armrest unit along with the 2 switches for power/snow back it? i am panicking now cause maybe i cut the wrong wire??? i did notice there were two white wires with silver dots... but one of them has a thin black line running along...

please help!

sounds like you did not plug in the connectors all the way back in

if you are wondering what i'm talking about

because theres two white wires with silver dots... i think i cut the wrong one in the middle harness. the one he circles in the picture is actually a different one that he cut from this post for the 2007 gs https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=317093

after doing a few of these, it is sooooo easy to do, learning curve sucks, in all honesty, you can have these issues with that kit especially if the plugs are not inserted firmly

ok, i figured it out!
after cutting the other white w/silver, it works!!!
u can see it for yourself also. the post of the 07 gs... the white wire he circled is the one NOT to be cut. u can see he cut the other wire in the other photo. its the other white/silver on the other side. unbelievable!!!

so in summary, the one he circled has a thin black line running along the side. DONT cut that one!!! lol

Yup, I screwed up. I did not realize that there was 2 white wires with silver dots. I took the pictures before I cut the wire. The next day I circled the wrong one. So I deleted the picture.

Sorry about that! - Me bad!
