It was a grueling 6 hours, but I found a way to properly bypass it finally. To get Front Seat Video and be able to enter address for navi while driving. Nothing like I've ever seen.

I'll post pix real soon.

 

You're a tease.. :shakehead

 

hahaha, well anyone with a z1 give me a shout. I had my Pioneer Rep Begging me to tell him how to bypass it when he was on the phone with Pioneer of Japan=)
hahhaa

 

Post info Please...

or be



Only kidding.. but seriously..

 

Forget the bypass........Who has a Z-1 yet?

 

grimey as hell. why post something like this without any details

 

Sounds cool definitely post pics How's the Z1?

So, is there just an extra wire on the harness that you have to ground out (Like the D1) ?

 

Actually funny as it seems I got the Z1's last week. Its weird that we got them already in Canada, and a lot of dealers in the states still haven't received theirs yet.

 

The last round of shipments for this batch was yesterday 4/3/06

 

We got ours today here in Memphis, now we're just waiting on Nismo to hook us up with the bypass info.

 

Scott, you crack me up. HITH are ya?

 

worn out, bondo sucks ass, so i don't feel like toying with this z1 myself. Oh Yeah i am back from the Home audio world and inserted back into custom car work.

 

 

A couple questions about the unit itself,

Are you able to watch a DVD in the front seat when the car is in park before you did the bypass?
Also, could you scan the owners manual that has a diagram of the back of the unit?

 

I'm really really curious as to how you did this Nismo. Please post some info

 

pm'd you nismo, hoping you can help me out =)

 

word on the www. is flashing the headlights 3 times or flashing the 12v dimmer wire when initialy starting the auto before the z1 boots up unlocks everything.

is that your secret misimo ?

you can scheck out a great thread on it over at avic-z1 bypass

 

who cares what misimo says, i comform the hack above as %100. I JUST DID IT MYSELF...

ENJOY

 

^^ Yeah I heard it works on another forum. Good job

You gonna put a switch on your illumination wire?
Or I wonder if you can find a module to send out 3 12v pulses whenever you turn the car on.

 

yea you can use a pac tr7 to do the 3 pulses, but honestly i am not that impressed "yet" by the z1

check out this new forum on the z1, lots of info www.avic411.com

 

Really? How's the bluetooth? Or do you need an addon module for that?
Also, I recommend getting an Ipod. The new IB100ii w/ touchscreen interface looks awesome. Plus I heard that even though there is 10 gigs of storage you have to load it by ripping the sounds off of your real CDs. Is this true? I was hoping Pioneer would make it a lot easier than that.

 

Nice, Sounds like that's a possible solution.

A Pac Tr7 on the illumination wire programmed to send out 3 +12v pulses when the ignition is turned on.

That along with grounding the parking brake wire.
I'm assuming you also had to ground that out too, correct?

 

bluetooth is a add on and i dont have it, i got 2 mp3 players and no ipod. i burned a orignal cd and mae a copy of it and the copy burnt to the z1 hd but i dont think it converted to mp3..

the voice command works great.

 

yea, i just twisted the z1 ground and the pb wire together and mated them with the chassie ground.

 

It somehow knows that if you put in a burned CD that it's a "second generation". If it detects this it will not burn to mp3 to follow yet another lame standard pioneer is following.

 

Wouldnt flashing the headlights drastically reduce the life of the HID's since their life cycle is based on how many times they are turned on and off?

How did you do it?

 

Heres a good site that has alot of bypass guides for Pioneer Avic Units

They also have guides for Pioneer Avic D1, D2, D3, N1, N2, N3, N4, Z1, Z2, Z3, F700BT, F900BT & F90BT.

Hope it helps someone.
