How to install a kit that enables Wireless Apple CarPlay and AndroidAuto in Porsche 911 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015 and 2016 model years chassis 991.1
The kit supports touch screen. Radio type is PCM 3.1.
List of Version 2 improvements:
Wireless Android Auto is now supported
no need for a separate microphone for Siri or Google Assistant, now works through the original car microphone
no external module (just PCB installation), less wiring
Synchronization between car lighting and screen night mode
I just installed this and am very happy with the result. Whilst very helpful, this video makes it look a bit easier than it will be for the average person like me. Here are some tips that might be useful.
1. Do it in daylight if you can - I did it in a badly lit car park, which didn’t make it any easier. Download the video to a phone or laptop so you can follow along.
2. It’s worth covering the screen to protect it from scratches - I taped a piece of cardboard over it.
3. Likewise, I put a cloth over the gear lever as the unit will rest against it during the installation.
4. th-cam.com/video/RbIn-z8U6lE/w-d-xo.html Removing the antennas was the first difficult part. The key is to make sure the release clip is pressed. Rather than my finger, I found it easier to use two screwdrivers, one to press the clip and the other to lever the antenna out.
5. th-cam.com/video/RbIn-z8U6lE/w-d-xo.html Opening the casing was not as easy as it looks in the video. Firstly, there was a sticker on one side that needed to be cut. Secondly, it was very stiff and needed a lot of force. I ended up doing it like this: th-cam.com/video/MvTrdPw_nB8/w-d-xo.html
6. th-cam.com/video/RbIn-z8U6lE/w-d-xo.html Plugging the cables into the motherboard - I found this very tricky. They did not slide in easily, and I was worried about bending one of the pins. I did it by getting one end in, then squeezing the connecter and the port until it was fully in.
7. th-cam.com/video/RbIn-z8U6lE/w-d-xo.html when installing the cables in the car, you may need to move the two-pin audio connecter with the green cable from the existing harness to the new one. Otherwise, you will have no sound. I think this applies if your car has the Bose audio system. Removing this connecter was a little tricky, but basically, there’s a small clip on the harness you press, and it just slides out. I also needed to unbind this cable from the others as its short length made everything too tight.
8. th-cam.com/video/RbIn-z8U6lE/w-d-xo.html I found that locating the USB cable to the glovebox made it hard to close. I actually put it on the passenger side of the center console, as then you can use the drinks holder as a phone stand! [long-term update - this wasn’t the best decision. A dedicated phone holder is needed. Plus for neatness and ease of access, better if the cable is on the driver’s side]
9. th-cam.com/video/RbIn-z8U6lE/w-d-xo.html the key to getting the harness back in easily is to push the clip fully open
10. th-cam.com/video/RbIn-z8U6lE/w-d-xo.html putting the unit back in was not easy. As it shows in the video, try and bunch everything up at the back. Mine didn’t quite go in flush, but after I screwed it back in, it was fine.
11. th-cam.com/video/RbIn-z8U6lE/w-d-xo.html replacing the side panels is a bit fiddly. The key is to push the end in more than you think you need to. Then look to see that the clips are aligned.
With the system up and running, a couple of things aren’t documented: to use the car mic for phone calls, in the unit settings, you need to set “original mic” to ON.
In order to switch back to Carplay from the car interface, you need to hold the INFO button.
You are a hero! I would not have been able to do this without your comment :)
Thanks so much for these tips. In addition:
1) I don't think you need the slightly larger (yellow and black) wire from the new board if you aren't running cameras and plan to use wireless connection for everything (no USB). Saves some space!
2) Don't forget the optical connections! I did originally and not only was sound not working (no surprise) but I couldn't even change inputs.
thank you for this confidence-building comment!
What is the green 2 pin connector for the audio?
@@williamwebster2581it’s for the Bose audio, if the car has it
This is one of the best step by step installation instructions I have seen. Good Job !
I was just thinking the same thing. GREAT JOB! Thank you.
Awsome...what I was exactly looking for..Thank you
Thank you so much for making this video! Really helpful
looks like a simplified kit as mentioned with less cables. However, I am hesitant to order on since there doesn't seem to be much support. I see no replies to the questions asked and gajones76 has been very helpful with info, but that's about it. I would like to hook up the rear and forward cameras as well, but no mention of that. At least I know with JoyAuto, the support is there when/if needed, and that's one of the most important criterion for ordering a kit in my opinion.
I'll wait to see if questions are answered or not before making my final decision.
Great video, just need to cover all areas i.e. camera install, and what were those other wires you did not plug into anywhere?
Very helpful video..thank you
Thanks for the video I followed the instructions and made my life easy. Anyone had an issue with the microphone? When I call the mic doesn’t work!
Hello, how do I know if my radio is PCM 3.1 or CDR 31 since it is the one that comes from the factory? Thanks
Hi, I have a 911 carrera 2014, I'm interested in setting up car play, now which rear camera is compatible with it?
Does this kit work with Bose & multifunction steering wheel controls?
Many thanks 🤔
excellent
My Bluetooth connection is not working presently. Can I assume that installing this will cure that in addition to adding carplay?
Does the sound auto correct for burmie sound system. Thanks.
Do you need to disconnect your battery prior? It appears not. Just ordered this.
I didn't and had no issues
Will this kit work on a 2017 Porsche 718 Cayman S? I believe the PCM is the same.
Will it?
@@affluence6390 It won't.
You need PCM 4.0 version. I have them for sale. email me sales@carplayretrofits.com
Don’t we have to disconnect battery and also keep the key away for 30
Mins?
not necessary!
how can i mount an android carplay in a acura tsx2004 without it being an aftermarket? thanks you
I really need this but for a 2008
hi does this affect the bose audio quality?
Can you use spotify or google maps?
Yes, please check out Apple's website for a complete list of compatible apps with Apple CarPlay. Thank you.
Coooool,, what would this cost
The link to the product is in the description of the video. Thank you.
will this work with the 981 2013 Boxster s w PCM 3.1?
Yes it will, thank you.
WHAT ABOUT THE MODULE ?
What do you do if everything works, but you can't get any sound?
Just encountered the same thing-no sound. There are 2 fiber optic cables that need to be moved from the original harness block to the new one that plugs into the pcm. They come out easily, just have to be gentle, but man they make it a lot harder to move stuff around !
I have installed and CarPlay working but absolutely no sound not on the radio, Apple car play, phone - no sound at all! Anyone help?
Please email our support with your order number and we will tell you what to change in order to make the sound work. Also the diagram hat came with our kit addresses this issue. Thank you
Has anyone connected the rear/front cameras?
Will this work for 2012 Porsche carrera s 991.1
Hi, yes it will. Thank you
Hi does this work for a 2014 981 Boxster with PCM 3.1? Thank you…
