Hello,

I recently installed the PA15-ACUxl in my 08 MDX Sport with Rear Entertainment. All is working except for the charging. I have contacted Crutchfield and they have sent me a replacement device and cables, but the charging is still not functioning. I have tried charging an Iphone 3G and Ipod nano 3rd gen. No luck....has anyone had any issues with this?

No issue with my unit so far, i installed my unit about 2 weeks ago. So far so good.

Does it actually show the charging icon? I'm starting to wonder if maybe it is charging, but now displaying the icon correctly.

Yes, shows charging icon.

Thanks for the info. I ended up getting another unit today (3rd one). Apparently, there was a short in one of the cables which was blowing a fuse in the other units. Once I ran all new cables and replaced the unit, all was working. I have to say that I have gotten pretty good at installing this thing. Took about 30 minutes to complete and that included fishing the new wire to the center console.

Congratz, I fished the cables from the back to the glove compartment. Chose that over the center console because I can lock my glove compartment.
