Android install has me wanting to beat my head against the wall 😤
2006 LS 430 Mark Levinson with Navigation.
installing Chinese android unit with NO instructions or paperwork.
I’m experiencing two problems and I’m not sure if they are related or not.
1st issue seems to be unique as I’ve tried to do some research before posting. Audio will cut I. And out a couple times and then go off for good. It powers off the factory radio (with cassette deck). Sometimes this happens in seconds others it takes a few minutes (not dependent of volume or even playing audio at all). To me it seems the android and the amp are supplying power and causing problems.
2nd issue seems to be a common one and that is hvac controls. I cannot get those working either.
Any help is much appreciated before I go back factory. I’ve had this thing in and out 35 times it seems this weekend. One thing possibly worth noting is if I pull the smaller plug on the back of the factory radio it will fix the problem of powering off but I lose audio. Also worth noting if I unplug that wire while it’s playing audio it will work fine until I turn the vehicle off. One more thing worth noting is that it appears there are two sets of volume, steering controls and buttons on android control android volume and volume **** on factory radio controls factory amp. Thanks in advance for any input.
i think the one you bought is mostly for android stereo only. Not include the AC related feature. it is the deck with DVR features. recommended to ask the seller again
