You know how you have to use the CD changer input to use an iPod or Sirius setup, well, GOOD OLD HONDA may of solved the issue with the Losing the XM or adding more then 1 AUX in the port...and it is a $15 part. Its a part of the 3 part set for the MUSIC LINK SYSTEM for the iPod, but you can get it seperately. It has the female end that goes into the radio, and 2 male ends that will fit any female end in. Have not tested it, but have a pic of the label so you can get it and try it....The dealer I went to, just got it in yesterday for the first time.

 

If this works you I'll be starting a new religion in which you will be my god.....let's get some answers peeps

 

I almost bought it, I may tomorrow, but I have no second device yet.... but I guess i can have the XM plugged back in and see if the preview channel works...

 

This may be something for STREETEFFECTZ or some of the other audio junkies to look into...I love when I go to the dealer and they have NEW toys for us to EXPERIMENT ON...

 

I'm just wondering if it'll work with an 04 in such a way as to have two rca connections(xm commander and an iceLink)

 

If you get it hooked up, please post instructions on how to do so and what the options are for controlling which input is in use at a given time.

This is great news if it works.

 

You don't understand... these have been used since 04 on Nav cars to add SHOND3s without splicing.

When you use one with an icelink or SHOND3 on an 05 or newer, the engine noise and audio quality problems happen on the XM unless you disconnect the added audio lines with relays - L, R, AND the audio ground.

Congrats on finding a cable weve been using for years, tho

 

OH THANKS< I thought i was special....

 

I did some searching last night and figured it out, jsut didn't get a chance to post it.

 

Oh, don't get me wrong - this harness drastically eases the mod to add an SHOND3 to a 2004 nav car, and it also eases the mod to add an Icelink to 2005-up. But it's not a magic bullet, befcause electrically it does the same thing as butt connectors do. Still need the mod

 

I just got that harness and it works. You get xm and ipod. The only thing is it has to be moded to disconect the ipod totaly because XM is low and you get engine whine. So if anyone knows what wires i need to tap into to run a relay let me know.

 

Thanks for the news flash, Tom Brokaw...

Uh, I guess that means it doesn't eliminate the audio problems, now, does it?

You need three relays. Icelink Audio L, Audio R, and signal (-) ground. If you look at the Icelink harness you can figure them out pretty readily.

 

Do i have to just cut thr RCA signal out. What would i need tree relays for?
