    Thank you for the video , very good instructions for the fiber optics!
    I installed a similar product and have sound working fine even if I did not bypassed the fiber optic. I removed the CD changer, but the radio does not work, it seems the electronic antenna no longer gets power supply.
    Any advise on how to power them would be great!

    @32:25 you use a bypass connector , what’s the difference between that and the loop connector they sell with a few inches of the FO cable . Dose the extra bit of cable hinder anything , that being your reason for using the connector in the time stamp ?

So this part is new to me . I have the screen powered up with front & rear camera working , just no sound yet because I’m waiting for loop cable . I’m going to do exactly what you said in the video when my loop cable arrives . I plan to make a short but similar video as you for the w163 folks because although the systems are the same/similar across different model vehicles the problem is when someone types in only their model & can’t find anything for it not knowing they could use another vehicle for reference .& I will definitely share this video link to your channel in my video description to give you credit thanks 🙏 for replying btw , your a great content creator it was easy tofollow along , I appreciate all the effort.

My factory radio connector where you plugged in the green/ white CANBUS wires & Blue wire for D2B wake up looks different. So I guess we will see how that works out in a week when I can test for sound .

    I can't seem to get my sound to work. My headunit powers on and works great. I double checked to make sure all my fiber optic wires are looped properly and it looks to be going straight from D2B decoder to the amp. With the canbus connector, my D2B wakeup wire is connected to the car's turquoise wire. Then opposite end the other two are properly connected. However there's just no sound. My amp fuse is fine too. Maybe my D2B decoder box is not getting power or broken? Can the headunit power on properly if the D2B box isn't powered?

      there may still be another device in the loop. do you hear your amp kick on when you turn the car on? you have a phone in the loop, a cd player and i think one more thing. otherwise the next step is to remove as many d2b connectors as you can from the loop.

    Hi, great video which is really helpful. I fitted the same unit in my SL55 and had the same issues with Seicane support eventually resulting in my returning the unit for a refund. Thinking about trying one again but a couple of questions? I believe the dash clock cannot be adjusted after installation is this right? Also is the option to pay for the upgraded rom and ram advisable to take. Thanks

Im not running power intensive apps or needing memory for heavy multitasking while driving.

      what i mean is while you are digging around in the back disconnecting and bypassing the fiber optic lines, you will have a lot of extra bypasses within the fiber optic loop. you can remove a full fiber optic cable if both ends are in bypasses and just make the loop smaller.

    I follow ur instructions to wired D2B audio adapter and connected per the instructions but unit didn’t power on at all my question is the connector u modified where you connected d2b wake-up wire connection will same for the s430 2001 model.

      D2B “wake up” wire is only for the amplifier to kick on so you have sound. "wake up" signal for the sound amp. If the unit isn’t powering on then you have another problem. Good chance they are different wires as they are different cars

      NO you cannot.... yellow cable is constant power, which means even when the car is off the cable will get power. The red is for ACC. which means power will only be supplied when the car is turned on or in ACC mode. you can probe the radio harness for an ACC cable if you want. I am just unsure which it will be. the wire will read nothing when car is off and 12V when car is in ACC more but engine is off

What would you say is the difference in installing the Seicane With D2B Fiber Optics or a double-din unit?

      haha pay for my ticket or and ill come install it! from the sounds of it, it seems like there is still a break in your fiber optic loop or you damaged a fiber optic wire. since the head unit still works, then that should all be good. a good way to check is turn the volume up and unplug the fiber optic cable from the radio and you should here a loud click (almost like when you unplug an aux from a guitar speaker) from the Benz speakers if you here that than you know the loop is correct. if you dont then there is a break in the loop somewhere.

      @@Haydenschreiermk2 I still need to know why my aftermarket unit never powered up as I cant return it. I just bought the car and the previous owner bought the aftermarket unit :(. I wonder if a stereo shop can trouble shoot why the head unit wont come on....Quick question. My D2b fiber optic unit came with a very long fiber optic wires. If I was to plug this wire directly from the stereo to the amp will that make the audio work or does it still have to go through the loop of the cd changer and tele system?

    You have the personality to produce excellent content, I enjoyed your car rebuild series but you need to buy another project car and I think you will continue to grow your channel vs very specific video’s on a older

      I won’t lie to you, I had a blast building the VW. But financially speaking it’s not feasible to do something like that consistently or I’ll end up homeless. Realistically I may need to start with clean title project cars before spending that much on project cars

      @@Haydenschreiermk2 Hi again, I'm wondering if you can help me a little more. My can bus did not come with the plug for the two wires that you plugged into the plug that you made. I just have a couple of wires with nothing on the end. I expect those two wires go into pins 8 & 9 on the plug coming out of the car with the D2B wake up in pin 10 of the same plug. Would you know which wire position out of the can bus goes to pin 8 and which one goes to pin 9? In my can bus, the two wires are next to the yellow battery wire and the other is next to the black ground. If you could just say the one next to the yellow goes into pin 9 in the corner or vice versa, it would be a huge help. Otherwise, I will jut try it one way and hope I don''t blow a fuse. Thanks.

    Great video. But, I highly encourage anybody considering this product NOT to buy it. I purchased one, installed it, I get sound but I also get a "popping" sound when the unit heats up. It "pops" all sound cuts out for a few seconds and then it comes back on. The popping even happens with the unit off. Customer service was worse than horrible and they continued to discourage a return claiming it may takes months, get confiscated by customs, etc. DO NOT BUY.
