      Right there with ya buddy. I was just curious if he did this internally. In America, they’re nearly all 5v. Sold as Bluetooth recievers, with the micro USB on one end for the power, and a 3.5mm headphone socket on the other. Right there, most quit once because brain can’t process it.
      The rest of us run a power wire from someplace in the device thats 12v-15v, along with a wire to ground, connect that to a cigarette lighter usb Charger, then from the charger to the Reciever use a little micro usb cable. Then an auxiliary cable from the 3.5mm socket, cut the other end off, and solder/wrap/crimp the L & R Audio wires to the inputs of the device. Tuck it all out of the way and seal her up. Or let her dangle like most people.
      My vintage 1970 HK Reciever has Bluetooth now and trips people out. Like it’s magic. *sigh*

  • @DeadlyVoltsHD
    @DeadlyVoltsHD 6 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    I had to take the time to say you did a quality job on that man very good work, you heat shrinked every wire, you didn’t hot glue the module in you took the time to drill holes and screw it in, you twisted the wires so they weren’t just floating wires, i seen some taped down to the board too! Very quality work man

    • @Darieee

      I was trying to do this to my stereo a few years ago but was too lazy to find all the inputs and so on. I ended up having to hack the steering wheel transport controls anyway to make them work with my new head unit. Im glad I bought the new head unit though since it plays music from USB and I only need to use the bluetooth for calls the new stereo also came with hard wired hands-free. This is a very useful video though and I am thinking of making a similar one on the hacking of steering wheel controls.

  • @alind2107
    @alind2107 6 ปีที่แล้ว +15

    A few years ago I wanted to replace my e46's stock radio-TAPE but I was suposed to buy a "Standard Radio Frame" from $$$ BMW $$$...
    In the end, I converted the original to a Radio-Tape-BL (3 function) while the BOM was even cheaper:
    5$ for the (cheapest I could find back then) bluetooth speaker to dismantle
    0.5$ 1x 7805
    ~0$ : 1x 1N4148 + 2x 33Ko
    I'm using it on a daily basis so it worth every second, Waste of Time my a$$.

    • @kaneCVR
      @kaneCVR 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      The "standard radio frame" for the e46 is 5 to 10$. The problem is, aftermarket stereos look like ass in the e46's dashboard. I went with a simpler mod - I created an "aux in" by dismantling the tape drive inside the stereo, removed the read head, added filter capacitors and tiny resistors and soldered a wire with a jack to where the tape drive's head was. Then I jammed the tape drawer to fool the drive into thinking there's a tape in the stereo and done. When selecting the cassette player, I can use the jack to get quality audio via aux in. Then i got bored of that not being able to switch tracks using the steering wheel buttons, and got a Dension Gateway Lite adapter witch provides a USB port, works with the steering wheel controls, and can display track information on the stereo's display. It cost ~90$. Then I got bored of that and installed an aftermarket 2 din nav system witch looks identical to the car's original navigation, but has a touchscreen and android 8.0. It was expensive to do (270$ for the unit and another 100$ for a new ashtray holder to move the climate control down one slot) but it's so worth it. I have mp3 (via 2 usb ports or two sd card slots), video, DVD player, navigation via google maps or igo, Torque for scanning codes, youtube, a reverse camera and much more. I even put a NES emulator on it for kicks. Worth the 370$.

    This is best for a car where the hvac is built into the radio making it impossible to replace the radio. I.E. i did something similar in my 2008 Lexus is250. This car is just old enough to not have Bluetooth. It worked great, but if you don't know what is what you'll have to read a lot. I have some experience so it was easy for me to do.

    This is a great video. It may be a lot of work but this is a great mod if you live in an area where aftermarket radios are stolen. Even if an aftermarket is cheap crooks will still steal it and sell it.

  • @Waelshamsan
    @Waelshamsan 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thats an awesome modification bro, I like this tutorial, you are amazing , and I need to ask you one question , if we need to add the Aux pin to the car stereo instead of the bluetooth , should we do the same thing? I mean should we connect the Aux wires to the same audio's pins in the audio module?

  • @radiotec76
    @radiotec76 5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    There's a practical argument to make for adding Bluetooth if the radio of yours is a favorite or plays cassettes, you don't have the deep pockets to buy it all that music digitally or you don't have the time to rip them to mp3, ogg-vorbis or whatever your favorite digital format is. There is also the idea of experimenting, learning and having fun with what you're doing unconcerned about whether the electronic project is practical or not.

    Super videos for the DIY! Much credit. For the NON-DIY, A decent Bluetooth to FM transmitter is 11$. I've found them at 5 below and dollar stores 1$. No radio disassembly or reinstall required. No tools to buy, Can run off batteries, fuse box, usb, cigarette socket, etc.

    A 55Ah battery drained with 50mA is empty after 46 days, not 114 years. And you shouldn't completely drain a car battery anyway. So let's say we can safely take out 30Ah, and the car electrical system also drains 50mA, then we're already down to 12,5 days, less than two weeks...

    I think it's very nice that I'm not the only one who wants to keep the contemporary look of the radio in the car.
    But I have a question: Well, it worked and I was able to bring in the bluetooth signal via the cassette connection to the speaker of my car. But I have a lot of interference noise.
    Do you have any ideas where the noise could come from?

    Hello, I do have an Kebidu Bluethoth, mp3, USB player. I have a player that I want to connect to the Blaupunkt radio CD. I would like to remove the CD drive and continue to use the radio and mp3 module. I don't know where I have to connect the ACC related to the mp3 module so that I can switch from the radio mode to the so-called CD mode but the mp3 module works.
    I assume that the audio signal coming out of the mp3 module must be connected exactly as shown in the video. Or do I probably need to connect to other pins?

How or can this CSR8645 BT unit be added to this radio (only unit) by independently switching the BT unit on/off (external switch) and connect somewhere in the audio circuit to pick up the amplified speakers? Where can I find internal schematic of this Delco radio? May be an old video but I fully understand the the technique used. Thought it was great.

I mimiced your installation on mine however now the cd player plays at a much lower volume and the bluetooth volume is not nearly as loud as the fm bluetooth broadcaster I was using. Any suggestions what I can check? Alos on the device there is a connection for vol + and vol- Does that mean it may be just playing in the middle volume and if signal is sent to vol+ it would play louder?

  • @sanjuro1313
    @sanjuro1313 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Very helpful, thanks. For the BT board you linked (CSR8645) - it has a pairing connector (it's labeled "COM"). Do you need to pair the BT board to your music source (I noticed you did not solder onto the "COM")?

    • @Darieee
      @Darieee  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      You're welcome
      The COM pin is actually the 1v8 rail derived by the CSR8645 chip - it's what you common the buttons to, so that when pressed, they apply 1v8 to the VOL+ VOL- PREV or NEXT inputs, which are GPIO pins of the CSR8645 programmed to perform those features
      So, given this chip uses BT 4.1 (or other reasons?) volume on it is independent from the phone (at least for iphones), which renders in quite useless - so, I never actually used the buttons in any of my builds. Default volume is 100% which is fine by me - I control the volume from the phone exclusively.
      At startup the BT module tries to connect to previously paired devices; if none are found it becomes discoverable, and you can pair your phone to it; at the next start it will connect automatically to it; no need for any buttons.
      Also as a side-note, there are now CSRA64215 5/12V isolated modules available; that chip is way better, and there the volume of the BT Module is synced (with at least iphones). Other than that, they're a drop-in replacement for these CSR8645 ones - and cost the same too
