- In this video we demonstrate the process necessary to upgrade the factory radio in your Acura MDX with the factory Bose system. If you don't have a subwoofer in the back of your MDX it does not have the Bose system. This upgrade allows you to retain your factory amplifier that powers all the speakers in the car along with the navigation. We also utilize the AXSWC to retain the steering wheel controls with the new aftermarket radio.

I retained my steering wheel control without any extra kits. I just installed the “radio remote switch” wire on the oem side of the plug(A3/Green and Red wire) to one of the “Key” wires(key1 in my case). The radio had a key2 on it but I just cut and insulated that one cause I only needed the one Key, again, for my “Radio Remote Switch” A3 Red and Greem wire on my 2001 MDX. Radio Remote Switch to Key1.
Very nicely done.
Hello TH-cam, If your MDX does not have a subwoofer you will not need the 70-1725. The harness with the RCAs is only necessary for the MDXs with the factory bose system.
Q be t
@AcuraAudioGarage I did this install just as in the video. 2003 Acura MDX with Bose system. Unit was Alpine ilx 650. But now I get a sub pop every time I shut off. I connected the remote wire and rca cables. I also tried giving remote wire power to accesory fuse. Nothing has worked. Any advice? Thanks!!
Will the dvd player still work? If not is there a way to power up the roof screen and hook it up with rcas to a Roku or a streaming device? I have a Roku 2 that has rca output.
hello, excellent video, thanks, a question, the screen that I buy has to have rca audio input, I have a system bose
I have a question do you lose function of your Fold down tv when you put in a aftermarket radio?
2001 MDX. Hooked it up and get sound but only from the rear speakers. Any ideas?
You should do a video about roof tv how to just the functions
Awesome video tnx , can't u put a link for the stereo and where to get it
I'm in need of your expertise I currently have a Kenwood ddx9907xr with JL audio 900w amp and alpine s series speakers and a 12in JL audio sub I believe the head unit has 3RCAs could I use any of these in a 04MDX thanks for any response but head unit alone will it pair and play nicely with any of the MDX factory components
? What navi system and what radio did you use for the MDX? I just purchased an 04 MDX.
Hey max if my customer bought just the harness, he wants to add a subwoofer to the aftermarket radio is there something inside of the harness where I can tap to get my low levels for the sub. Or is it too complicated? And should he just bypass the amplifier altogether?
what size screws hold in the radio and Nav in the dash mine are missing need to replace. just brought it used
TYIA
I want to replace the radio, the upper LCD screen that usually has the navigation ect. Needs to be replaced. Does this include both the screen and the radio. Mine does not have Bose and it’s a 2001
Hi will your DIY Kit link below work for my 2001 Acura MDX plug and play?
Could you provide the name and model of that stereo. I need one.
Can you hear the navi through the speakers still?
do you happen to know why my dvd player doesnt turn on at all ? the dome light dont turn on either got the car like that, would it be a simple fuse?
Hey I just bought a 2004 Acura RL Any suggestions for aftermarket radio & wires hardness. Thanks
Can you do a video on fixing or replacing the Navigation Screen on an 2006 Acura MDX? Screen doesnt respond when you tap on it. Can you help?
What about the roof tv. Will it still work?
When you’re connecting the steering whee control to the 70-1725 harness, do you connect the black ground to the black ground already coming out or do you have to unpin from the 1721 harness and attach it there?
out of the 1721 into the 70-1725 so it has two black grounds. They go together to the radio.
My aunt just gave me an 2003 acura rsx and it has tape and cd player I need to upgrade asap
Great video and I’m going to swoop up one of those custom made harnesses you made in the video if they are still available? But my stock stereo is locked and I have two different codes to unlock it that I got from the dealer with the vin and serial number method. The stereo worked fine before I got the high pressure steering pump hose replaced. My question to you is well maybe two questions haha is there anyway to factory reset the original stereo? If I buy a new unit will I run into the same problem, will the new unit also be locked? Sorry for the long message brotha. I just don’t want to waste time and money.
In the glove compartment there is a code that will reset the radio
What size in inches is that radio
Want to buy one but not sure of the size if it's 7", 9" or 8" screen
Ok I have a question that may be a little off topic but my 06 acura mdx went into anti theft mode and my car wouldn’t start I seen a video that said to put in drive back in park and then start it and it worked! Only problem is I think it’s still in anti theft mode I can’t even punch in codes to unlock it everything is frozen PLEASE HELPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Could you tell me how I can find those objects?
Can it. Be. Done. Were. U put a mdx. 2004 navigation in to a. 2002 mdx
So there’s no absolute way to keep the rear entertainment system working?
I need some information on how to do this
What year car was this ? 2005%6 should require a resistor or AC fan controls wont work.
Hey man, another question. I’m doing a very similar install and I set the wiring up essentially how you explained it. I have a base 2004 MDX without navigation and I don’t think it has the Bose audio. When I connect everything, I get power to the unit and the speakers work, but the volume is extremely low, I have to turn up the unit to full volume before I even hear anything. Do you know what the issue could be and how I would fix it?
Hey we did not realize there was a version without the boss system in that case you will use the 70-1725. There are no RCAs needed. all speakers are wired straight to the radio.
@@AcuraAudioGarage Thank you!!! I ended up using the 70-1721 and connected it to the harness that came in my Sony XAV-AX1000. All the wires were color matched. I'm a car audio amateur & couldn't have done it without this video so I appreciate it! I think it's due to the fact the models without Bose don't have the extra Amp so the AV cables connected just resulted in super low audio.
I just have to figure out how to set up this backup camera I got and Ill be good to go lmao
How can I keep my CD player working after installing an aftermarket Radio like a Joying in my Acura 2006 MDX w/ Bose & Nav?
CD player? If you replace the factory radio the audio components from the factory (radio, navigation will not generate sound). So they may work but you will not have audio.
I have a question...on my 4G TL 2011, it makes a very annoying statically sound every now and then and it only comes out of the dash speakers...after I turn the car off a view times, it then connects fine. I wonder if it'sy Bluetooth having issues? When I disconnect it from my cars Bluetooth, it goes away..
Hello, This is possibly a failing amp or a faulty HFL module both are common issues in Acuras. It's going to be a tough issue to troubleshoot. It might be easier to buy a replacement part and see if it takes care of it. If it doesn't then you can assume it's the other part. If you are good with electronics you can analyze the system and components individually but we wouldn't be able to explain how through a youtube comment.
@@AcuraAudioGarage cool. I'll probably take it to an Audio shop for full diagnostic of the audio system.
Have a 2002 Acura MDX Touring No Navi but Bose. I bought the harness with the RCA plugs. Now I am getting a lot of engine noise. Accelerate and whines worst.
Is this a grounding issue? The head unit is a Atoto A6 Pro. Suggestions for fixing the issue. Thanks.
Yes internal grounding of that radio most likely. The Atoto radios are known to be very noisy on the RCA ports. We can swap the harness for you but we don't think that will solve your problem.
What would you recommend for a 2010tl I would get the door speakers and tweeters, also do I need adapters and spacers?
you will need adapters and spacers, do you have navigation? The JBL component speakers are the easiest to install.
@@AcuraAudioGarage I do have the tech spec so yes nav, also I don’t know if it matters but do you happen to know the sizes of the door speakers and the tweeters, and thank you!
Great video, quick question my 06 mdx has xm radio so would that be a different harness.
The XM radio you will lose from the factory but it would be the same harness. The difference is if you have the factory Bose system or not.
Thank you for replying. Yes the vehicle does have factory bose
@@detectingyoungstown330 So you can use the harness we show in the video but you will need a 68ohm resistor to keep your navigation working. Our limited research shows that MDXs from 05-06 need a resistor to keep climate controls/navigation working.
Oye vivo en Chicago tengo una Acura mdx 2004 tiene el sistema de GPS bloqueado cómo puedo desbloquearlo o llevarte también quiero instalarle un radio nuevo que tengo y una música
What about for reverse wire on stereo leave alone since its Navi screen controling reverse camera with Navi screen
yes the camera goes to the navigation and the navigation controls the switching of the camera.
How do you get the subs to work I have a 06 mdx and I have a pioneer stereo it says amp overload
switch the blue wire on the blue plug to the red wire. The pioneer radio only puts out miliamps on the blue/white wire and its not enough to turn on the factory amp and that is why you are seeing that error. You are overloading the blue/white wire.
I have an 06 MDX With nav and bose. With this will I still retain AC controls?
yes you will
Dang you may have to do a more thorough video lol so many different mdx options. Mine has back up cam that comes up on the navigation unit .I installed the wiring kit you told me to use but the nav still don't work it comes on but no functions.im thinking a ohm resistor will work but what about the back up cam and xm raido?
Yes it appears you need a resistor to have all the functions work on the 2005 06 MDX. We are looking to get one if the shop so we can further test.
@@AcuraAudioGarage Thanks for that information. Yes I installed a 70 ohm resistor on the pink and blue wire. Navigation and backup cam works fine now. I also have to order a antenna adapter and xm radio adapter. Never in my life have I ran into all this craziness.
Hola me podrías mandar todo detallado para hacerlo yo
Where are you located? I have a 2005 MDX touring that I would like to add an android head unit tp.
we are located at 333 spur dr n bay shore ny 11706
@@AcuraAudioGarage Sadly on the wrong coast 4 me, with Acura discontinuing NAV updates for these cars a lot more people will be looking at aftermarket solutions.
At least put a website for the radio for buyers.
Nevermind, found it.
We didn't see the final result 👎🏼
BOSE not BOSS
😂 wow
