congrats your pcm reverse signal is 100% working - was it not working before? what is it being connected to? the other pink cable coming out of the canbus?

has the reverse camera been plugged into the proper input input? it needs to be plugged into the single VIDEO RCA input plug on the same harness as as the pink reverse trigger going into the HU. there should be no other RCA plugs on this harness. of cousre the camera itself needs to be spliced/plugged into the appropriate+ proper ground/power.

Hi

Genius Went into factory settings reverse was disabled, enabled it. Tried reverse with pink wires joined, nothing. Put +12v on pink HU input result., camera works a treat. I have a WiFi camera with no trigger so I have to replace the sender and receiver with a trigger type. But I am very happy, it's a pity OWtosin didn't give me this information after a week of to and fro messaging blaming me and or the camera.
many thanks

Barry

PERFECT!!! - I'm glad you are up and running.

this is a group effort - i have been working alongside acr89 + another gent in the EU on the fb retrofit modification forum in efforts to get all issues for this (these type of android units) sorted out. when i found out about this deck, i figured despite being a generic china android box, there were enough guys here in the know where we could pretty much be our own tech support.

my Fb retroFit post is a little more detailed then the above, and it is pretty much a install/trouble shooting manual.

This way those who dont feel qualified to tackle the install can just print it, and then drop everything off at pro shop to install, it should pretty much cover EVERYTHING.

Mine worked fine out-of-the-box on my 997.2.

Also ​@myw you’ve been awesome at troubleshooting this for everyone that’s had issues. This is the kinda stuff I love about this forum. Everyone helps.

myw

thank you man - much appreciated.

ps - you are one lucky b@$t@rd for it to work plug + play

My only real complaint is ZLINK for Apple Carplay occasionally starts automatically even though I have it disabled. And in order to update it I’d have to root the rom which I’d rather not mess with.

myw

i will try to help figure this out with you in due time.

I have had a similar system in my daily lexus for a while (similar to the joyAuto 997.2/991.1 android/carplay retrofit using the oem pcm), which helped me get up to speed with everything. my lexus apple carplay (Zlink) connection was hit and miss but eventually i was able to get it under control.

what about turning the bluetooth on your phone off?

i got the reverse cable to work without issues.

close to the reverse camera itself there is a RED + BLACK wire that needs to be spliced.
- the RED is the reverse trigger 12v+ signal itself. This should be sliced into the passenger light tailLight harness BLACK + BLUE wire. The driver side taillight harness has the exact same wire as well.
- the BLACK wire is just the ground. Splice this into the THICK BROWN wire in the passenger light harness

Behind the taillight there is a grommet (containing wires) you have to pull - from there there is a much larger grommet that is unreachable that needs to be drilled thru so that the reverse camera cable can be fished into the cabin (many youtube videos and previous RL threads to explain this).

After getting the cable up into the cabin
- plug the yellow VIDEO output Cable of the reverse cam into the yellow RCA input of the pX6 labeled 'CAM or CAMERA' (this should be attached to the harness that the canBus adapter is plugged into, not the giant plethora of RCA cables)
- take the red wire that is attached to the reverse cams YELLOW rca output cable and splice it into the pink px6 cable called REVERSE.

It this does not work your unit or camera is defective. But based on what i am seeing it will work on the first try.

I installed this on multiple cars this weekend. No issues, but I had trouble shooted everything before hand carefully.

Because my iPhone still BT connects to the headunit for calls, sync, and BT audio.

myw

got it - what app do you use for phone calls + contact link sync? I have not been able to figure this out yet.

scadams

It just connect to the CAR-KIT Bluetooth name on the headunit.

This is amazing to know - i will attempt the same. Does anyone else find these aftermarket GPS pucks are borderline crap, they seem to cut in + out of reception. I have this issue for my android device in my lexus as well, but this owTownsin 997 gps connectivity is much, much far worse. If the oem gps puck plugs into our px6 that will have to help re gps reception



nope , your MF wheel is working perfectly fine. the canBus programming is wrong. I've confirmed this with with a few cars worldwide - that these 2 exact buttons never map.



I believe that on top of the 2 steering wheel buttons not working + the reverse trigger also not working, the RDS info not showing up on the main gauge cluster is yet another canBus error. My theory is that this effects the owTowsin canBus UNIT ONLY. this thread started in 2019 - and back in those days ppl were buying the NaviFly unit. the Navifly + canBus is a diff canBus decoder where the RDS does work.



which FM antenna are u plugging ur px6 into? the black or the curry(yellow cable). the OEM pcm system uses both antennas, when i tested both the black one definitely works better. are your power + ground wire taps perfectly clean + shielded with ample amounts of electrical tape?
EDIT my package was incorrectly shipped a single fakra antenna adapter only - we need the dual one. Buy this may help https://www.ebay.com/itm/19227880619...8AAOSw7H1Zk6ur



since you know the exact power cable the px6 harness is taping into for power (yellow cable in harness) - you can splice a basic on/off toggle switch into that yellow cable, and route that hidden somewhere into the center console. This will 100% cut the power of the PX6, forcing a hard reset to your liking.



@acr89 was able to figure out how to install the front camera without removing the front bumper. Just a bit of drilling will be required in a nonVisible area (ideally in the center ducting and not in the bumper itself). I'll give it a go.

ty!

did you end up doing the screen swap? did it come with instructions?

this would confirm that the bezel is detachable for paint. ty in advance
