    You never said how to find the VSS wire that's on the car already. All this does is promote your GPS VSS signal generator.

    So where is the actual Toyota vehicle factory vss wire? from what I can google, is only goes to the ECU. and not up behind the stereo? can you confirm if it does and the plug and color of the wire. Also is that different to the TAC on the OBDII port? 2018 Toyota Hilux

    I just had a similar problem. Installed my pioner 1700nex like a week ago and was working perfectly fine. Unit was installed in my 2006 Nissan 350z Touring and now displays “Speed sensor disconnected” affecting CarPlay navigation; completely messes up my current location. Still confused cause I never connected speed sensor since there is no wire to connect (from the car) since speed sensor gauge is behind the steering wheel

    The JVC KW-M950BW (same but different) units have a VSS wire but head unit only seems to ask for the GPS antenna to be plugged in. Also testing a waveform generator (Jaycar), with a slight modification, hooked to the VSS wire to trick unit into thinking it has the VSS square wave signal. Info from Kenwood is vague whether VSS is used for augmenting navigation dead reckoning. There is also an OBD2 adapter module available from Kenwood that’ll give VSS output for later model cars.

      Hi Luca
      you need steering wheel control interface
      The steering wheel control bottons works as simple simple open/close switches (in a different way in any type of car). 3rd party audio systems works with a different kind of signal and you need the interface to translate the steering wheel control actions to the signals the audio system can read.
      I just purchased the aerpro steering wheel control interface and will install it to Mazda 2

    • @NeverEnoughPyro40
      @NeverEnoughPyro40 ปีที่แล้ว

      Do you need to pick up an adapter from either maestro or PAC audio in order to retain steering wheel controls! Also you can find your VSS signal wire in the wiring harness going to your instrument cluster, It is extremely easy plus it makes your navigation more accurate when it comes to speed and distances! I have a 2006 Nissan frontier witches the same things!
