Hi the wiring seems ok, but you might want double check if you wired the 24p conector with 5p conector?

As I remember the Dupont connector are dif to the JAE insert conector, you might need to double check.

Hope it helps.
I'm 90% sure everything is wired correctly, I'm thinking a defective brains? I'm not even sure if the model that was shipped to me works with these parts. Any ideas anyone?

This is how it has been since I started, again old headunit works fine, I'm thinking the new one I got is defective?
Possibly, but you might want double check the Dupont connection to headunit, many time it fail out during installation, especially on tuner.

The Dupont connector is not design for our headunit, the wire is too thin.

Hope it will help.

As I remember should be JAE series AG5 terminals, but it didn't sell on amazon pretty hard to get only from AliExpress or Japan.

Hi Guys i'm receiving a lot of MPs requesting help. Sorry for the late reply!

I tested this radio on the bench and the tablet display requires the Disp Count signal in order to power on.
I think you are wiring everything correctly according to the diagram.

But to make sure please review the following:
On the main connector please ensure that you have 12v and Ground.
A1 = GND
A3 = 12V

But the most important part is to send a signal to power on everything.
You must power the A13 with 12v, it's the ignition signal.

I have a computer ATX power supply with wiring, Later I'll check and post here again later with photos.

Dont work for me. But my power supply has only 12v 3A support. I think need more than 3A for power on unit.
Need to test with PC power supply =)
