you prolly dont give a shit but does someone know a tool to log back into an Instagram account? I was stupid forgot my password. I love any tricks you can offer me.
@Aydin Owen thanks for your reply. I found the site on google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff now. Seems to take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
For an extra 10 dollars you can bypass all that BS and get a BT fm transmitter at Walmart that works just as well not to mention a soldering iron and wire is gonna run you at least 30 bucks and if you solder the wrong connection you're looking at a whole new head unit. Hopefully someone reads this before they get 9 minutes into this video.
Kudos for the knowledge and ingenuity you display here. You lost me at the circuit layout though. This isnt so much a hack as a stereo rebuild. Definitely amazing result though
You've got quite the brain, I would have NEVER THOUGHT about this. My fear is losing the tiny screws, I get so nervous haha. Thank you so much for the video!
Did the same but on brand new radios (one with CD and one without) that had 3.5mm jacks. Using the same, at least in form, receiver but did not use any connectors or 12 to 5V converters. Soldered the left and right channels from the radio PCB to the bluetooth PCB and did the same for the power. Most if not all radios will have an internal 5V rail for their electronics to work. This also eliminates a potential ground isolation problem that you mentioned. Finally, I drilled a small hole into the PCB of the receiver and screwed it to the side of the radio. This did not affect the range, it works up 6-7ft/3-4m from the car (while opening/closing my garage door).
@@daijoubu4529 , I was thinking it might interfere putting the BT module inside the radio. But you could always put it on top or the back of the radio. Im getting ready to add one to a older GM factory stereo, so i might experiment to see what kind of signal loss i get between a couple locations. finding a good location to connect to inside the radio is going to be the trick for me. lol
Really good demonstration/explanation video thankyou. Easier for me to install radio/CD player with blue tooth from ebay for less than a hundred bucks. I'm not a technical person. Cheers.
@@speedkar99 you are obviously quite adept at working on electonics,but there is available fm bluetooth adaptors that plug into the cigarette lighter and play through the radio for around 15 dollars.
Thank you for this but instead of tapping into the cigarette lighter, could I just use a fuse holder in one of my fuses that turns on by the ignition for my 12v source?
Instead of regular bluetooth receiver used in this video which is music only, will the aux pin work with mpow bluetooth receiver which is for both music and phone call? I have 02 camry LE with stock cd & cassette 86120-AA040
It's really great hack but , I've question:- 1. why Bluetooth connected before the key is not on and Even the radio was off how audio signal goes to speaker? 2. Any hack let the radio by hack work without Playing blank CD. Thanks
How's the sound quality do you hear any static sounds or buzzing. This is cool really awesome work. Definitely will try. Alot cheaper doing this than buying a factory radio head unit with added bt that can cost up to 300 to 400.
Pretty cool but they literally sell FM bluetooth transmitters that you basically put your stereo and 12v transmitter on the same channel, connect to the transmitter on your via BT and thats it. They cost about $10-12.. I put one in my gfs 2004 nissan altima.
You can see this 😂 guy knows what he's talking about and what his doing .I need this to done to my Nissan GTR 35. But I have all the confidence to mess it all up with out trying to hard . This guy is a gold 😂 find. Good luck to him and all the best.
Good video, to simplify: just connect power/usb pieces to the power input 12volts of the radio unit This way you don’t have to remove the center console
I might have 1 concern: the power source is probably "always on", so the Bluetooth module will always drain power? It would be better to connect it to a source that only powers the module when the keys are turned. Otherwise a very nice hack!
@@speedkar99 not all cars are like that. My 01 oddyssey's front power outlet is always hot but the one in the cargo area is hot with key in ACC.... I have a power splitter with a button...the plug stays in the power outlet and I use its onboard switch to turn it on/off.
To test if the modification worked, does the stereo have to be fully reassembled, or is there a way to test without having to assemble and risk having to take it apart again?
@@speedkar99 No. mine does not have JBL. I have open it and took some pictures and see a few L and R chanel but don't know wich one to solder to. How can i send you the pictures to look at ? Model Toyota 86120-AA040
No disrespect but you have more skill and time than the average person and if I did what u have shown I would probably wreck my radio . Why not buy a FM transmitter and plug it into the cigarette lighter or 12v adapter and save yourself all that hassle.
Hi, Amazing video. Maybe someone can help me out. I don´t find any pinout diagram for my Chip, and there is nowhere on the motherboard written (L/R channel) - also not close to the CD plug. Do you have a good source to look for pinout plans? I appreciate your help & time :)
Do you have a link to this specific bluetooth adapter? Everyone that I find has a battery and a power switch, making it difficult to hide it behind the dash. Thanks!
Tunai's Firefly is a good option. I have not experienced any clipping or other interference with it. Been using for 2 years. I have not had any success with those under $5 modules like the one in the video.
Hi nice install, I’ve been thinking about doing this to my car also. I have a question, can you control the music (select the next track) with the car stereo? If not how could I connect it so that it could control it?
Instead of taking 4--6 hours of buggering around like this just buy a BLUE TOOTH MODULATOR and plug it into the LIGHTER SOCKET and run the stereo on AUTO SEARCH and within a minute you are connected on BLUE TOOTH --- the modulator costs around 10 dollars (80 rand in South Africa)
Great video. Can you please post a video on how to remove the o2 sensor error (P0420 Code: Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold) I have been suffering with it for too long. Would really appreciate your help.
Nice video, but I dont think the average person has the knowledge to try to set up something like this.. A simpler and much easier option is to just get a bluetooth compatible FM TRANSMITER off ebay, the highest quality ones are like $25 but some cheap ones are as little as $10..
Hi, i have F1SF-19B132-BA CASSETTE from DOLBY in my 1992 ford ranger. I need help, already buy the 12v bluetooth trying to install but don't work make ugly noises!!
One question if someone can answer... If I was to do this without the Bluetooth addition... Just for the Aux Input... Do I need to have the "blank" CD? I should be able to just select the CD source and play thru the aux cable couldn't I?
It would be easier to buy a Bluetooth receiver and connect it to the 3.5mm jack in the car. It would cost a little more but is a whole lot of less work and chance you'd mess something up.
To add to speedkar99's answer, you may need to disassemble the stereo to find the chip name unless it's posted online somewhere. You'd possibly be disassembling it anyway. So you can look at it as practice. Be sure to stay organized too so that you don't end up with any extra parts. Also, to me it seems that a lot of chips, even small ones, have their name on their casing; even if it's faint and hard to see.
@@speedkar99 great tutorial BTW... I love those comments about just buying a new radio with bluetooth built in. The problems with that are... 1. Most everything available in the aftermarket car stereo industry these days is pure crap! 2. Most OEM stereos are also computers that perform more functions in the modern car than just the audio system. ex. GM ON-Star, dome lights, annoyance beeper, on board cameras, navigation, etc... 3. Look closely at the OEM radio. Many are made by reputable companies such as Alpine, Matsushita, Fujitsu Ten, Pioneer, etc... Don't think the new Alpine available on Amazon is the same quality of Alpine you might find in a Lincoln LS for example. If you want a real hi quality Alpine, go find an old 7909 anniversary edition unit. 4. Many cars will not allow for a simple aftermarket installation due to proprietary amp input/output impedence and special configuration without expensive adapters and such. 5. FM modulators just suck!
He had the radio apart already, should have just tapped into a 5V rail on the mainboard. Or even with a simple LM7805 LDO voltage regulator off the 12V ACC wire would have been sufficient. Those BT modules use negligible current so wouldn't even need a heatsink for the IC. Of course, use a fuse either way. And unless you can cram the module in the front faceplate it would have to be mounted externally. The metal shell of the radio would block or at least greatly diminish the signal otherwise.
when the toothbrush is the main character......
Yep. A vital part of this installation
Seriously, again with your brothers toothbrush. XD You made my day..again!

When he showed the toothbrush i tought he is just going to put some blue colouring on his tooth and call it a day
Wrong video for that. Haha
Haha
How about I just send you my stereo and a check and have it wired for me and send it back

Thanks very much. It took a bit of research but I finally got it.
Hello, I'm new to your channel. Nice video. I was fully expecting you to remove the screws with the toothbrush.
Hahaha toothbrush screws....what next? Bushings?
You've got quite the brain, I would have NEVER THOUGHT about this. My fear is losing the tiny screws, I get so nervous haha. Thank you so much for the video!
That's why I did it on a spare radio I didn't care to loose screws
Youre a savant. Extremely gifted in various disciplines and you learn quickly.

This looks like rocket science
It sure is
I just got a less than 10usd Bluetooth to aux and fitted it in 2 seconds. But you sir, are a genius anyway.
That works but isn't as coear as wiring it directly
@@speedkar99 will the soldered aux cable work if i plug it directly into my phone, i don't want bluetooth.
I wish I had your patience.very cool video!
Thanks. This took a long time to figure out...so you don't have to!
they do sell BT modules that would fit inside the radio without all those wires and connections. but this was cheap and works which is a plus.
The metal shell of the radio will greatly impact BT reception however.
@@daijoubu4529 , I was thinking it might interfere putting the BT module inside the radio. But you could always put it on top or the back of the radio.

Yes the location is also critical. I located outside because the wires I tried tapping for power didn't allow the radio to turn on for some Reason.
Really good demonstration/explanation video thankyou. Easier for me to install radio/CD player with blue tooth from ebay for less than a hundred bucks. I'm not a technical person. Cheers.
True but then you don't get that OEM look

His brother later that night made his toothbrush into a shank 😈
Lol
See last week's video
Sharpened brothers toothbrush is a special tool
This is brilliant great hack. Nice work figuring it out.
Toothbrush guy is back in my recommendation 😁
Awesome!
One possible improvement on the hack is to power the Bluetooth module using the 5 volt supply from the radio, just need to locate it.
Good tip. Tried the 12V supply to my inverter and my radio didn't turn on...
What a helpful video, on my way to get my brothers toothbrush, I’m getting Bluetooth
Bluetoothbrush
Thank you for this but instead of tapping into the cigarette lighter, could I just use a fuse holder in one of my fuses that turns on by the ignition for my 12v source?
Yes
Make sure you use a ground loop isolator

This works for phone calls and music....it's basically like a Bluetooth speaker
The toothbrush had nothing to do with this video 😂 Overall thanks for the hack!
Bluetoothbrush
Lol your brother's toothbrush has been so helpful.
It's quite the universal tool
AN old Toyota Camry 2005-2006 model. The 2002-2004 model had a cassette player as well. I didn't know it had a computer board inside
Yes they all have a board
It's really great hack but ,
I've question:-
1. why Bluetooth connected before the key is not on and Even the radio was off how audio signal goes to speaker?
2. Any hack let the radio by hack work without Playing blank CD.
Thanks
Not sure if there's another way to trick the radio into taking a signal from an external source without an interface bus
You should sell your brother's toothbrush on Amazon. Most useful tool ever.
Amazing another all done video one of the best automotive channels
Thank you
How's the sound quality do you hear any static sounds or buzzing. This is cool really awesome work. Definitely will try. Alot cheaper doing this than buying a factory radio head unit with added bt that can cost up to 300 to 400.

Awesome! Do you have any idea how to connect AUX cable to Toyota Avalon 2007 radio? Could you please advise how to hack it?
Same method
So would you still be able to put a charger in the cigarette lighter or would that strain it instead?

Great hack but why not get an bluetooth transmitter??
Because this is better sound quality
Bluetooth FM Transmitter from Amazon $13.99 a lot easier and faster-plug into cigarette lighter and wa la you're done excellent sound.
The sound quality of transmitters cannot compare!

It sure has gone through alot and lived a tough life
The toothbrush is back!
Haha agreed, my brother is still missing his toothbrush
I put it to good use as a panel popper

This time to clean the bluetooth :P Ok, I will show myself out
To test if the modification worked, does the stereo have to be fully reassembled, or is there a way to test without having to assemble and risk having to take it apart again?
Yes you can power it on the bench if you know the pinout at the back of the radio.
Nice. I got a 04 Camry but it look different from the inside .can you help?
Because you have JBL, you're gonna have to look on the board for the CD In/out or Google the Pin-out of the chip

Keep up the good work very informative.
Thanks very much
is this worth doing to my v70n? like how easy is it to fry the board?
How did you get audio when the bluetooth paired without the radio on?

It would be easier to buy a Bluetooth receiver and connect it to the 3.5mm jack in the car. It would cost a little more but is a whole lot of less work and chance you'd mess something up.
Lol. The whole point here is because this radio does not have a 3.5mm jack
great information, as usual deep down to the real details with excellence.
