help needeed

just brought kenwood KDC-W5534U, very nice too, problem though :dapprove: . Ordered an autoleads kit for the steering controls, but the adapter on the car is a yellow square male plug. The lead they gave me is an orange/red rectangle female unit :dapprove:

now it did say not campatible with mulitplexed units, and not compatible with 182, never mentioned 172's

so is the cup mulitplexed? (i think it is), or can i just get another lead, or patch this one? (not too thick with wires and can use a soldering iron lol

help dudes

it's not one for the back of the clock is it?

i know some of the older leads used that

hhmmm i'll have a gander later, but i'm 99% sure the stalk controls are the yellow connector? (fits to the standard H/U)

 

[Dink]

yeah but you can bypass that and go from the hu to the clock (thats what my old sony did)

ahhh! how do the clocks come out? this way of connecting it did cross my mind

 

[Dink]

dash out to get to it

 

[Gaz_]

for forks sake top bit yes?

 

[Gaz_]

and whats happens then is it a matter of just pulling out the old plug, and refit?

just spoke to a guy off an audio site and he thinks the same as you

I know that to connect my JVC controls up it's the connector behind the clock that makes it work.
