avh-p4300 help on install

i had someone install my pioneer avh-p4300 today, i was trying to watch a video and it says cant be driving but my truck was off so i took the thing apart and found out that they did hook up the parking brake line. i dont have the instructions i was wondering if anyone knew how to connect it. did i just match up the colors and spice? any help would be nice thanks.

This is how you bypass that so u can watch video while driving....

In the video he is wiring a P4200 but this also works on the P4300..


I will prolly not get back on this forum so if u still need help u can email me at locjaw901@gmail.com

 

subbed for tomorrow

 

Jewdichop has it right ... I installed this unit last week as well and followed these instructions from Sound Man on Youtube ... Works flawlessly! Go pick up a 12V relay from Radio Shack (cost was 7.99) and it took me about 5 mins to hook the wires in.

PM me if you need specifics, but all I did was follow this video. Good luck!

 

Ok I'm buying this today well ordering it .. I'm a gumb ass when come to this stuff but can somebody like me hook this up my self if follow detractions

 

Forgive me for changing the direction some, but whats the difference between the 4200 and 4300?

 

The 4300 is the new model that can stream pandora from an iphone. There are no other differences that I'm aware of. My 4300 is supposed to show up today.

 

I almost order this yesterday. Still thinking about it. Here nothing but good things. Anybody coupon for sonicelectronix ???

 

See post 12 here for some 4300 comments. Not 4200 vs. 4300, but just 4300 comments in general.

As for differences, the only items I could identify was: Pandora, "better" screen, updated menus/firmware.

Note also that Pioneer does not honor the warranty if bought from Sonicelectronix as they are not on Pioneer's accepted web vendor list. The Sonic purchase is warrantied by Sonic itself. Check prices on Amazon as Amazon is a Pioneer web vendor. When I bought mine a few months ago, the Amazon price was within a few $$$ of Sonic's, and I got to keep the Pioneer warranty. Note also that at that time the 4300 price and availability was changing daily, so watch it.

 

Dose it matter what the amp is on the 12v relay I got one today it's a 12v but says 40amp I think there was another one that said 10 amp also that was in a 12v

 

Relay amp value will not be an issue. "standard" automotive use relays are 30 or 40A. Just hook it up.

And guys doing this - You can let the relay dangle around behind your dash, and things should be fine, but please be safe and use heat shrink or electrical tape around your connections!

 

Ok thanks. I hope I can do this I'm a dumb dumb I never hook up a HU I got the wire harness for the tacoma hope I can do it nobody around my area dose car stuff anymore

 

One other thing do I have to ground the relay and the HU or ground 87 and 86 then ground ?? The wire

 

Do I have to ground twice or not ??

 

Did you watch the video?

He shows where 2 posts on the relay are spliced together and grounded. Another post is hooked to the remote wire and the other to the parking brake wire from the HU.

 

Ok sorry I'm a dumb ass when it comes to this ok so he's just grounded it once
