Just run a parking brake bypass, they’re 15 bucks at your local audio shop, easy to wire in, and you don’t have to find your actuall parking brake wire so it saves time. Plus you can access setting and watch movies while driving😃
What a terrible design. Why wouldn't you at least put something on the screen indicating it can't see the parking brake signal.
You can bypass that failsafe feature by installing a MicroBypass parking brake override switch. Alpine won't tell you this.
You can ground that blue and yellow wire. That’ll allow you to do anything you want on the head unit.
@@cray1171 From what I remember, it doesnt work like that. It checks during startup to make sure there is a state change.
@@s10jam All I can say is that I grounded it, and it worked for me. Maybe it'll work for other people. Just touch the blue and yellow wire to the metal of the car, or the head unit itself, and it should work, just as mine does.
@@cray1171 maybe it's a different model or version. Or maybe I am not remembering correctly. The way you are explaining is definitely how I thought it would work.
So… I recently had to call Alpine tech help because I had no sound from speakers (easy fix, I had to reinstall tweeters from spliced wire Jl audio to Kicker oem plug n play). Dude at Alpine was very cool and really educated me on wiring, troubleshooting and got into just how complex and intelligent these head units have become. He then asked if I was having trouble with the settings tab and it sometimes being inaccessible. I told him it was really hit or miss and how the tab turned on about 1/2 the time when needing to use it and it didn’t matter if I had e-brake on or if I engaged the e-brake twice (like shown in this vid). He then proceeds to tell me that the settings tab/e-brake is a known issue with no real solution (mind you, this guy tells me he’s been with Alpine USA since 1998). So what I did was go to my settings and turned off the parking brake tab and set it to “park”. What that does is eliminates the need to use the e-brake and allows the settings tab to turn on when the car is “park”. So basically my settings tab is always on until I put my car in drive or reverse or neutral.
So glad I found this out I was gonna have someone take it apart because I thought the Bluetooth and the rear speakers were just not hooked up correctly but all I had to do was pull the e brake up haha
i wish they offered a turorial on how to adjust the speaker settings,i cant get this thing to sound good
There's one thing Alpine won't tell you but you can install a MicroBypass parking brake override bypass for the Alpine radios so you can get rid of that stupid fail safe feature, sorry Alpine. I rather have to do everything on the radio without anything restricting the functions of the radio.
Absolutely, but I’m hear thinking mine may have stopped working somehow.
Where can you get this bypass
How do you do that?
You would think they include that tidbit in the manual that came with the radio. Thanks for the parking break info, worked perfectly!
I agree. I thought I had a faulty head unit because I couldn't access my bluetooth info or the software information for the head unit itself. But why would you need to pull the parking break? Just leave your car in Park to access then disable the system setup when you are in Drive.
Parking break? 😂
They did include the part about engaging disengaging re-engaging the brake, but nothing about the parking break wire and troubleshooting
So basically have the parking brake wire tapped into a ground connection, but make it a loose or easily removable connection. Power on the vehicle and remove the connection to the ground. Then reconnect it causing the safety feature within the radio to release everything thinking the vehicle is actually fully parked when really it’s just the grounding bypass trick 👌🏼
Is there a setting that allows screen tilting? My 650 is great, but I need better access to the bottom buttons..
All of my old Alpine HU's had a full screen tilt for glare and accessibility
Any help would be great, thanks!
Thanks, this helped!
Oh my gooooooddd bro
I have it installed on a trailer, it doesn’t have “Parking Brake”, it is enough to connect the “Parking Brake Cable” to ground to have access to all the icons on the menu?
Regards!
Big help. Thank you
hi bro, i have a question if ilx w650 from united states and i bring to asia it will work? on my opinion it will work but not all the features just like sirius xm,or the radio am/fm i hope you give me answer thank you for the videos u posted u help a lot.😁😁😁
Help please, my boyfriend installed this into my 08 Honda pilot. I can only use it when connected to Android auto. I could listen to online music through the bluetooth which never really sounded so good but it did work. Getting to my question, Ive never been able to listen to the regular radio stations although is not greyed? All I have ever been able to get was static . Xm Sirius is greyed out as well as USB, iPod. The only thing I can access or is lit up is the Bluetooth button, the camera, android auto, radio and setup. When I do go into the setup the only thing that is not greyed out is the sound and connectivity. I've never been able to get into information, system, volume etc.... Can you tell me what is wrong? Since Watching your video I think I understand what to do to get xm radio to work but I would like to be able to use everything else and especially listen to local radio stations. Also in my sound settings the advanced is greyed out,😢. Can you please help me.
THANK YOU SO MUCH! the parking brake got me! Almost removed everything to inspect the back of the unit.
How can I install aux input at AlpineX008V?
May I get the wire layout diagrams for Aux inputs and Speaker outputs+
Dam good info. Looking at 2012 ram 1500 it has alpine touch screen radio and I try to hook up my phone to it and nothing work besides raido (FM, AM). If I bought ram need take it apart see parking wire going too
There's absolutely NOTHING about this in the Manual for my W690D. Crap... Now I have to disassemble EVERYTHING again...
Is it possible to turn the guide lines off in that menu?? Littrly the only reason I’m trying to mess with this at all.
I have a set up subwoofer with its wiring all set up and when I try wire it up to the radio it does powers it on but it doesn’t even play loud is had a little bass even know it has my old set up of my last radio how do I fix that
I have the ilx W-650 installed in my 86 c10. I had no bluetooth issues between my head unit and old Samsung S-9. Since upgrading to an S-21 plus its been troublesome. I checked that the yellow and blue e-brake wire was connected and secure and did a connectivity reset on my new phone. Still can't seem to connect. Any suggestions?
How could this unit possibly fit in a C10?
Thanks for this. I was able to use this trick to get many of the settings to work, but bluetooth is the only one that still does not show up. If anyone has an answer, I'd appreciate it.
After updating the firmware my dimmer on the screen is not working, low light and the screen is flickering, all wiring and power is good, alternator is good, all happenned aftes updating the firmware, any suggestions what could it be?
I have a classic truck and I was having issues with simply pair my phone. I found that by connecting my phone through USB, it overrides this safety feature and asks me if I would like to add my phone via Bluetooth and that's it. My phone is now connected through Bluetooth.
Okay I get this, but why are just my “Bass/Treble” and “EQ” greyed out when I turn the break on? Everything else works just not those two settings under sound.
If you dont want to buy a bypass or take to an audio shop just tap the blue and yellow into the 4 or 5 pin of your OBD2 port,they both ground i just did that on my cousins truck and it worked
I couldn`t find my parking brake signal and I didn`t connect the yellow wire. My bluetooth not working. 2003 Acura mdx. Why did you such a thing?
Did this and the damn EQ settings are still grayed out why?
Trick works pretty good but you would think for a $400 radio this would be a easy bypass
At 2:54 he says that the parking brake wire needs to show ground when engaged. But my install manual says "Connect this lead to the power supply side of parking brake switch to transmit the parking brake status signals to the unit." These are contradictory and inconsistent statements. Power is the opposite of ground. Getting seriously frustrated
My old car 2010 does not have A parking brake cable. I bought this aftermarket set and im having lots of regret
Use a micro bypass
My bass/treble is faded out and so is EQ. How do I access them?
What worked for me was adjusting the fade in the sound settings to more in the front. Let me know if that worked for you.
My alpine ilxw650 gets power to blue/white remote even when radio is off :(
Hi. How can i shut off the volume beep? It's too high noise
Just got a new ILX-507 installed and I can’t access the setup menu even after this goofy parking brake procedure. They will have to run another wire.
what i did is buy a toggle switch for like 15 bucks at a local autozone. Connected the yellow wire to the positive of the toggle switch. i grabbed a 14 gauge wire and hooked it up on the negative side of the toggle switch and then connected that to a ground. i put the toggle switch near the steering wheel so whenever i’m driving i can just turn it on! Hopefully this helped someone !
I bought an automatic bypass chip off Amazon for less than that.
How do you power off the 650 if you do not want your radio on while you drive?
I’m struggling with that too
Hold down menu button and unit turns off. Only clock will show on a black screen.
Mine works without connecting parking brake why.??
Well, if you're going to play nanny, wouldn't it be nice to tell the customer? Like maybe a notice saying something like "Engage parking brake to access Settings"
Even parked, not everyone engages the parking brake. And in the video, you even admit it doesn't always work.
What a cluster.
Ohhhh I just had my 407 installed and about lost it lol they didn’t tell me this!!
i just stripped the parking break wire and ground wire and wired them together
I innstall a on off switch in my dashboard. To the ground.
I'm dealing with this now, me being lazy though, it will probably stay like this for a little while lol
Thanks. The last time I installed my Alpine; you weren't born yet. lol
My car is a manual so would I hook it up to the hand brake?
Connect the long yellow/blue Alpine cable to one end of a SPST switch. With a new wire, solder one end to the metal frame of the head unit, and solder the other end of the wire to the other side of the switch. Now each time you flip the switch, it simulates a parking brake ground signal.
Wow. I just recently bought my vehicle and this system was installed. Actually took it back to the Toyota dealership because I realized I couldn’t access Bluetooth and other settings. They couldn’t figure it out. Even tried to update the system but realized I couldn’t access my flash drive to install it either. Not sure how I stumbled across this. I’m relieved, but slightly irritated at the same time.
Find a good ground run the wire to it done !
i don't recommend this alpine ilx-w650, for 6 days i try to connect my android lgv50 thing5g, and i can't auto play, i threw away my money😩😩
Its made for the apple carplay didn't you do the research before you purchased the unit?
Its got android auto too dummy
@@1998gst4611 I have android, it has AA and CP lmfao apparently you didn't do the research
Greetings, been struggling for months after reading comments BINGO The Parking Brake W😳W , appreciate the info. 1ne
Boiiii ul I just bought this pos and MAN I took it back immediately. This shit is HORRIBLE!
what about motorcycle?
I have an electric parking break, They made this video cuz they know this is a major pain in the behind, They also knew someone was gonna find a hack .
Thank god for the bypass…
That is shitty way to treat customers.
"We decided we need to protect the public"...lol. Its a dumb "safety" interlock that is easily bypassed.
Worst electronics design - I can’t believe this. I just spent 6 hours installing in a very hard application. This just ruined it for me and alpine.
Fuck that,I installed a bypass chip,works great
It’s stupid “ safety “ interlock editions such as this that have made things as simple as a car stereo 10x harder than they have to be. Adding unnecessary stress & anxiety to your customers is a dumb business model. But more & more companies continue to do it. Keep it simple stupid is the only business plan any company should apply. Quit worrying about your customers business & stick your worrying bout your own & making a great product that people like. Not hard people
The best thing to do in my opinion is buy another brand radio: that does not treat the buyer as a child and put stupid locks on features to stop someone from using them during driving, everyone knows that you should not drive and play with the radio but people do it anyway and will find a work around to the dumb option of the Alpine radio not allowing it. I am not a child and I do not want this option on my radio. Alpine needs to stop doing this with their radios. I would never buy another Alpine radio nor would I recommend it to someone for this reason.
Or don't buy a fucking Alpine. What a goddamn joke.
Delete this setting its junk and annoying
Yall suck always wanted an alpine now I'm returning it for something else don't feel like ripping out my entire dash and center console for a stupid radio
What's really annoying is you used to be able to just ground the parking brake wire, but Alpine decided they need to police their customers even more so if it's a constant ground it still disables the menus. So you either have to use a toggle switch or a bypass, thus they now created a giant business for people making the bypass add-ons, and extra annoyance and cost for their customers. Had I known I couldn't just ground the parking brake wire, I wouldn't have bought an Alpine. I've bought 5 head units in the last 3 years, and you can bet my next one won't be Alpine if it has this "feature". Everyone that cares just has the stereo shop install the bypass or does it themselves. I don't know a single person that has installed an aftermarket touchscreen and not done a bypass. Completely useless feature that just annoys customers. I will decide when it's safe to use MY head unit, not you. The fact you actually show an annoyed customer in the video and have to make a video explaining why it's happening is proof why you shouldn't do it. What's not shown in the video is that same guy installing a bypass the next day.
Jesus, just make a stereo unit and stop making me break my stock harness. 1 star, returning you're junk and buying a Kenwood. Garbage
This video wasn’t even helpful. Show us don’t tell us smh
Spend hundreds of dollars on a head unit. Doesn't work. Go to alpine dealer spend more money🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
In the ERA of CELLPHONES, this idea is MORONIC and pointless. And like MOST things that are this way, people come up with BYPASSES or work arounds. So you really are pissing you customers off!!!!
I am disgusted with this Alpine stereo why do I have to unlock a menu to get to I haven't been able to pair my phone to my stereo since I bought it and I bought it just for that and I've had it for almost 2-years it's just was a total waste of money in my opinion and I'm pissed off about it I watch all the tutorials and they keep showing the one that's got the television well I've got a traditional stereo it's brand-new they charge me more than the other one but I can't use it the way I wanted to my old stereo was by far better
Ridiculous video we here because we don’t want to take it to a shop and pay a fortune, stop recommending to take it to a shop 🤦🏻♂️
Of course Alpine won't tell you that you can bypass that safety feature by installing a switch made by MicroBypass that overrides the parking brake feature so you'll be able to drive while operating the apps on the radio. They won't tell you this for lawsuit purposes.
I'm so disappointed in this unit and with Alpine for how you choose to engage with the people who give you money for a product.
I don't need your protection. In fact it's incredibly offensive for someone or some company to presume to... I can barely stomach writing the words... decide FOR ME what I and my family require for the money you are given. I didn't join a cult when I bought this music, radio, backup camera screen, unit.
-I need a radio. I need it to come on when I turn it on. I need it to turn off and STAY off when I turn it off. This unit will not do that very basic function.
-I need something to connect my phone to, to play music WHEN I MAKE THAT SELECTION, not at any other time.
-If I want to use Bluetooth to do this, I'm going to choose it, or choose not to. The device is not going to shape my behavior by removing that option, and connecting even after i delete the device, against my choice.
I'll be making a video when I burn this thing in my firepit.
Disaster.
Get to the point my man
Useless video.
Ill never buy another alpine product again because of this bullshit.
ur telling me my dumbass has to take this shit out and find a wire for the brake i have no clue how to do that all cuz i wanna use bluetooth 🥲
