Connect Accessory Cables To Unit

CONNECT ACCESSORY CABLES
It should now look like this
- If you have the 4+64GB or 6+128GB model, you may have a few extra antennas / cables. Just follow the above diagrams to get them connected
Connection Instructions
Step 2: Connecting the harness
-
Connect Harness to the back of unit via black power plug
-
Plug in canbus box to harness
-
Connect antenna adapter
- This goes to factory plug
- Plug into back of head unit via RADIO hole
Step 3: Removing the Factory Unit
- Disconnect the car battery prior to installing / removing a head unit.
- There are plenty of YouTube videos showing how to remove the factory radio. Just search “How to remove Toyota N80 Radio” and you can find plenty of step by step guides
Step 4: Connecting the Harness
-
Once you’ve removed the factory radio, and unplugged it – it’s time to connect the main harness (already connected to our head unit in last steps) to the vehicle.
-
Connect these plugs from our harness, to your factory plugs. This is just a matter of matching the plugs to the correct factory plugs. Most only have one place to go, so it is very straightforward
-
GPS RECEIVER (if being used) should be mounted in the open somewhere (Dash, Windscreen, Top Visor etc)
-
If using the supplied microphone, route the wire through the steering column to behind the radio, then connect the black mic jack to the black mic plug on the RCA bundle in the kit. The mic itself should be mounted to the steering column, or top visor / corner of windscreen up high.
Make sure everything is connected securely and correctly, then go ahead and
mount the new head unit (with fascia attached) into the dash where the old
radio used to be.
Once all connected, and installed correctly – it’s now time to reconnect the
battery and test the new unit. There are a few setup steps first to follow
below, to get it all going.
Setting up the unit
Step 5: Setting up the unit
Once the unit is all working, the first thing to do is setup the CANBUS box. This controls your steering controls, climate controls (if applicable) and factory reverse camera.
- Go to carsettings -> factory settings – enter code 16176699
- Scroll to CAN TYPE SET, and click CAN TYPE SET
- Choose RAISE from the first column, then select TOYOTA -> HILUX -> Year model closest to yours.
- Ensure you choose something from each column right up to the end.
- Once you choose something from the last (VERSION) column, screen should change or reboot
- If this does not work – check for a tiny white & pin plug coming off our harness. Ensure this is plugged into the back of the unit correctly via the matching white socket
To set the radio region; go to carsettings -> Factory settings -> enter code 16176699 -> scroll to radio settings -> change default radio region to australia, then click “save” in the top right corner.
While you are in this menu, check the AM and FM gain settings. If they are on 0, change them to 5 or 6, then click “save” in the top right corner. Your radio should now work as normal. Any issues, ensure the antenna adapter is connected firmly, and to both the back of the unit and the factory plug. Contact us if any issues.
FACTORY CAMERA NOT WORKING
Please go to the HELP & SETUP tab on our website, then click the blog labelled “Factory Reverse Camera Not Working?”
You will notice on our harness there are 2x yellow male rca plugs. To find which one is the correct one to use, follow each of these plugs and you will have a white socket on the end. Only one of these white sockets should match a factory plug, the other one shouldn’t go anywhere. The yellow RCA plug attached to this white plug on the harness is the one you will use. If you get confused, you can just try both yellow MALE RCA plugs one at a time, changing the reverse camera format to CVBS-NTSC each time, to test (follow guide mentioned above)
