When you say all wires but one, is it one wire different or one plug? What year GPS brain are you trying to use?

It should be a plug an play.

I have a '99 and installed the DVD version. There are no extra wires.

There's also some good information on Paul Mooney's Navhelp.com website:

It came from a honda, and I think it was designed for "Japan" only, the one plug that did not fit is 10 pins from car, and into the box is 12 pin, it just don't fit. is it because it came from honda, or the Japan thing?

The following is from the Paul Mooney Navhelp.com website that I linked above:

Any of the following non-voice activated DVD units are plug in replacements:

2000-2003 Acura TL or RL
2001-2003 Acura CL
2001-2002 Acura MDX
2000-2004 Honda Odyssey
2003-2005 Honda Pilot


If the unit you have is not from one of the above list you may be out of luck.
