I don't think anyone will share that info. Some of us have worked very hard working it all out. You also if you didn't know need to be able to program it.

so i had a go at fitting ....got the radio / satnav working but radio ariel not good and non of the stearing wheel controls work....is this because of programming????

Did you do the rewiring?

Poor signal/controls shouldn't be down to programming.

Do the dash controls work OK?

i bought a harness lead for a parrot and worked out the changes .... did the rewiring and unit works ...all buttons work ....but the only things that dont work are the temp on the screen and the controls on the steering wheel. I did buy and fit a gps fin that connected to the plug on the roof but turned out that there wasnt any plug around the radio dash to plug in so dont know where that is ....but also had a fakra gps so plugged that in and works fine .so really i just wanted the radio signal (i have dab on my cd400)and steering controls working and then i can fit......i put my cd400 back in til i can sort out what doesnt work.....also i have the bluetooth module that i want to retrofit but dont know what wires go where as i dont have any connector or wiring for that yet....any help would be great...thanks

I take it your dab signal is bad also.

I had that on my old elite.

One off the changes you make shuts off power
To the aerial amplifiers.

tbh the signal on the cd400 was rubbish but i get nothing when i fitted the cd500 in the car...when i bench tested with a old ariel it was fine on fm but really wanted dab on the new cd500 ....is the dab i have able to work on the cd500 or do i need to do something else ???? and how would i put power back to the dab??? thanks mal

Like I say I had same when I fitted 950 the fm and dab have powered amps and when you change one of the wires it cuts power to them amps. I can't remember pin. To add dab officially you would need vci to add dab.

Pin 43 is the remote signal wire which supply's power to said aerials.
