I'm assuming your setup works off the Aux jack of your iPod and that the volume on iPod is turned up

It's the part number that you gave me, aux jack on one end and the 3 small plugs with the box on the other end.
Plugged into ipod on full volume and no volume? I really dont know!
And I have tried different ipods all with the same outcome...

In that case it's probably not wired right - you not doing anything wrong. Just take it back to them to check.

Hi Sparks, Remember that you have to put the volume of your ipod to about 80 % at least and then regulate with your radio's volume. Hope that solves your problem.
Cheers, Cees

Sorry about the delayed reply chaps,
took the vehicle back to the audio guys who did it on Monday, they got it working perfectly and claim that the instructions were wrong in the manual... :? I am more tempted to go with the fact that they didnt read the instructions properly the first time round!
Anyway, all done and working perfectly so Im very happy. thanks again for all your help.
With regard to the Gen 3 iopd cable... I have seen this requested in a few threads but never seen a reply with any
useful info or part number. Sorry

Hi folks,

another option for ipods is to go the flea-market and purchase a 'cheap as chips' radio transmitter with ipod connection. It plugs into your car lighter, you set the available frequency on the small little trnsmitter and tune your radio, set it as a pre-set.

they're small, work in your arm rest out of the way, no one has to run cables or pull your dash apart etc. Plus, yuo can take it out, put it in SWAMBOs car when you're forced to use it etc. I even take it on boys weekends with a small hi-fi and just let the ipod play away from the car, tune the hi-fi near the fire or cards-table and it plays away. uses next to nil power. more versatile, less costly.

or, spend a bit more and get an in car docking station that does the same thing, but can act as a hands free for your phone too. Hi-Fi Corp has the pricier ones. ;)

On my vehicle the pink wire was grey, but it all worked the same.

Cool My NS VR-X aux input install
Started like this

Then this. Took AC vents out with a butter knife. Easy just take your time.
Then remover the ac controls. Used a butter knife here as well. Again take you time. Easy.
Next was the display and facade. Bit tougher but managed to get it of without breaking any clips!
4 screws and the cd stacker is out. Remove the 2 plugs on the back.
Image

Next grab the right plug and locate your wires (thanks Uncle Buck)
Image

Cut the yellow, blue and pink from the plug leaving about 50mm to join your aux lead too.. Insulate the wires going into the loom with heat shrink or electrical tape or both.

Grab your 3.5mm stereo lead and socket. I bought a pre-made lead for looks and quality.
Strip it back and join the negatives to yellow, red to pink and white to blue.

Where you put your aux socket is up to you. I put mine in the small compartment under the flap. As below. The center goes back together in the exact reverse order of removal. Again take your time and it will look like you never touched it.
Image


Now turn on the stereo push the CD button then press again for about 3-4 seconds. You will now have "AUX".

Plug your mp3 player in and enjoy the tunes.
Image

Took me about a hour but if I had to do it again I reckon I'd have it done in 20 minutes. It's that easy.

Now I'm a happy camper. The stock stereo system is the first ever that I have not had to change due to crap sound.

Hi CATS,

Thanks for the article.

I Did mine this weekend.

First tried to get the wire 'MZ360136EX' from Mitsubishi - +- R1200?
I previously bought the 'MZ360135EX' wire for my Triton +- R130 about 2 years ago - they now cost +- R 400
They couldn't tell me what the difference was between the 2 .

The MZ360136EX has a coil box in and the MZ360135EX doesn't - according to google.

Anyway- If ordered I had to wait a few weeks- so I bought a R39 ordinary aux cable from New World with 2 wires.
Stripped the ends and saw the each wire had 2 wires inside.
I connected the negative/earth/ common wires of the two together then to the yellow/black wire (pin14) of the plug.
The core/centre wires ( left and right) I connected to the pin 6(your pink wire) & 15(your blue) according to the diagram.

It works 100%

Thanks again!
