What I said was that you do not use the blue wire on the 40-LX11 antenna adapter. Your car does not have a corresponding wire on the factory antenna plug. Instead, you must use the blue wire on your 70-1761. That sends power to your car's RF antenna booster amplifier. You need to connect that to something that provides no less than 12.0 Volts. Since you've connected your new HU's blue/white amp trigger line to so many things, you'll probably find that it's not supplying a full 12V. Previous Pioneer models were notoriously bad about that. Subaru's antenna booster amps are bad about not functioning properly with less than 12V. Also, some parking brake bypass devices say they won't work if you try to connect the HU's blue/white amp trigger lead to both the bypass device and to the car's antenna booster amp. So the answer is to connect the blue wire on the 70-1761 over to the red wire on the 70-1761 (in addition to the red wire to your HU and whichever wire goes to the Maestro). This will insure that your car's booster amp gets 12.0V or more. Leave the HU's blue/white amp trigger lead connected to your micro bypass device and the KTP-445U's trigger input. Sorry, can't help you with the Maestro issue. But I'm guessing that you've connected something wrong, or else the module is defective.

Check the serial number of the radio you are installing, and the model number. plug the data to data cable into the correct BLACK ports, one on the RR and one on the radio Last edited by phd12v; 01-02-2018 at 11:11 AM. |

Omg, I totally forgot about the data to data cable. Thanks! |

Thanks SVX, I will try this again over the weekend. I followed a youtube video that is posted by someone from this thread who have the exact same set up as me. He connected 5 blue/blue white wires together as well. But i guess its a hit or miss for that 12v. |

Hi all,
I have been researching trying to install a new HU in my 2016 WRX with HK 7" NAV. Trying to figure out what the appropriate harnesses are is a difficult task with this entire thread. Emailed SVXdc but haven't heard back, its been 2+ weeks so I imagine he is pretty busy. I have a few Metra harnesses but can't get anything to work. Has anyone done a direct replacement and can anyone let me know what you have used? Currently have an ASWC-1 as well fyi. |

sounds unfortunate. Any idea if there are guides online?

Microbypass
Hey,
So a few months ago I installed a Pioneer AVH-2300NEX in my 17 WRX and I used a microbypass to deal with the parking brake wire. Ever since I installed it my parking brake light is always on whenever the head unit is on and a source is on. Does anyone know a way to fix this? Last edited by Jbasspro; 01-15-2018 at 03:42 PM. |

because you hooked it up to the trigger in the 28 pin connector, when you should not be

Not sure if this has been asked, but do you put back the two driver / glove side 10mm bolts after installing an aftermarket HU or do you just retain the top two bolts?

Just Unlucky
After reading so many posts on this topic while I'm trying to install my new Pioneer AVH-x391BHS, I've discovered that my front RCA inputs are bad. Speakers work great plugged into the rear but sound is almost non-existent when plugged into the front. So disappointing as I was almost finished with my wiring. Thanks for the great tips and feedback to everyone up to this point.

I have a 4200NEX, and have the Scosche SU2031B and Maestro RR on order. I'm actually waiting on that new HRN-RR-SU2 harness! Good to hear. I wouldn't want to deal with that again after install. Is it a secure fit without the two bolts? |

If I were Subaru, and working with Clarion, HK, Fujitsu, others, I don't think I'd want a complicated amplifier control. I'd go for something relatively simple and cheap for everyone. I think 'Mic Detect' may be better translated as 'Mic Gain Control', and is probably a 0-5vdc signal. I'm going to guess that the HU has a blocking capacitor between the center pin and the input buffer mosfet, and 5vdc positive supply on the mic side of the blocking cap. I'd bet ground wire is ground. I'd bet that the Clarion HU has a sampler and a comparator cascade (implemented in firmware/digital domain), when there's enough sound energy coming from the mic, it'll send a difference between the energy sample and some preset audio-power threshold, it'll then scale an AD output on the 'Mic Detect' line to adjust the gain, in proportion to how large the difference from expected was. It may even be able to attenuate. If I'm right - and I don't have the car to try this on, nor could I find the mic assembly on parts.subaru.com - all we'd need is a potentiometer to set the amp gain for the daily driver (as the person most likely to be using the handsfree voice), and it should probably be set during a 55mph drive. You'd still want to build the blocking capacitor, since I have no idea what a random HU supplied by a random person would do with the 5vdc bias Figuritout's method would supply in the mic-in input. Anyone want to try? I still haven't bought the car - but I came to (and read) this (entire) thread along the journey of deciding when I do buy the car, what stereo (and trim - Base, Premium, Limited) to get. I think I like the idea of LED headlights, but now I'd have to find a Limited without HK and Starlink, or jump through a few extra hoops. If someone's got a spare mic, I can spend a few minutes in my lab at work and figure out if my guesswork's right, assuming no one wants to try on their own? Edit: no, I won't have the time to spare, sorry... It's also possible that Subaru added the gain-control feature to the mic for a really good reason, such as how much road noise can be in the cabin, and one potentiometer setting would not be enough in that case. Then, we could make a cheap inline device (read: PIC or other microcontroller) to do the double comparison and get the gain back to the mic. I freely admit I'm not infallible, so if my guess is off, I'd like to know. Last edited by SteveAustin; 01-25-2018 at 11:44 PM. |

Does anyone know if the Sony XAV-AX100 works with WRX models with multiple usb ports?
I don't want to drop $60 on the single usb port outlet, (86257AJ220) |

I installed a Pioneer HU on a 2017 Levorg with two USB ports by the lighter and used Metra AX-Subusb2 to convert the Subaru USB cord to aftermarket and it worked pretty well with only one minor issue: only one USB device worked at a time. I am guessing Sony will do the same. Another fix would be to take the Subaru usb box apart, and hot glue an aftermarket USB cord into the shell. I have done this a few times and it is OK. Once you fix the female end of a USB cord inside the USB boz that goes into the small panel which also houses the lighter, and hot glue it and then push it back to its place, you are done. All you need is a screw driver, a few zip ties and a hot glue gun.

Appreciate it . The problem with H/K system is when the HU is replaced, no sound. Amp doesn't turn on.
