2003 Nissan PRIMERA Aux-In

**Finceleb** · 01-13-2008, 11:08 AM

Hello everybody, Im new in this forum, but I read you allways I can.
I´m from Spain (excuse me for my poor english), and my car is a 2003 Nissan PRIMERA (p12 model)
I am installing a car-pc in my car, (i will post my advances on it) but i have now a problem with the audio system...
This is my radio-CD model:

This are the radio-CD connections:

I have not aux-in in the radio, then, Im trying to install an input for it.
I opened the radio, looking for any connector on the board, but the input I found, was just a preinstallation...(no components in the other side)

I wrote each connector, for the meaning of it.
I read an tuto about an aux-in using the CD charger, but is not my case, I have not CD charger, even the radio is prepared for it.
This is the connections pin for it in the radio main board:

In firs place, I am interested injecting sound signal on this way, but, if i simply connects speakers on their place, it makes nothing...
Must i Connect any other pin for just the radio recognice other mode in the radio?
I dont know if im telling what i want...
The radio shows "radio" and "cd"...i want to i could set ""cd charger" too, and then use this way for input the signal...
This are the radio pins, i suppose no way for inputing the signal that way...

This other photo is the telephone an navi connections:

Maybe i can activate this phone input, but dont interest me, because is Mono signal...
I prefer reserve it for any future handsfree installation.
The last way i have for inputing the audio signal is using the Cd reader bus...This are the pins of it...

Anybody tell me about using this way for input the audio signal, and prepare an AUDIO CD for reading it, then the audio will be listened on the speakers, because no cd noise is emitted.
You mean?
For the moment, i Solded a RCA cable for each speaker, for using an amplifier...
But i want to inyect the signal directly from the PC, and the Radio will recognice it like an "Aux-In"
I connected the RCA input in this points, at the exit of the radio, where you can see too a point called "AUX-IN"...
Is interesting that point for me? or is just another preinstallation?
Can anybody help me?

Thanks a lot, and excuse my english...

Hi there again...
Nobody answered me in the forum, then, anyway, continued trying...
Finally I could input the sound signal using the CD...

Hi there!
Nice job, coll display! 2 questions: did you try to use suspend to ram (S3)? Shuts down in 5 to 7 seconds and powers up in 10 to 15 seconds (I think that 1.5 minute boot time+frontend load is kinda long time). And the second one: where did you find the plastic fascia to put the lower screen ? in my primera there is a storage space and an ashtray in that place. thanx

Thanks Turbatus....
Its reaaly difficult to see you in MSN, then , here we are...
LOL
Then:
I am certainly trying hibernation mode starting the system, but first i want to be sure i am not having application problems re-starting windows...
Anyway, i was showing complete start process...
You are right, i have to use S3 (Is that english talking name for hibrenation?) for the car, but when the system will be fine working.
The another question has simply answer:
FIBERGLASS
lol
I bought on ebay a simple 7" LCD square (around 8€) , then i cutted off the storage space and the ashtray and integrated the square...
You can see the complete process in my project...
Anyway, I am working on an English version of the project...
(Some english-talking friends asked me for it too...)

GREETINGS!!

Hi there,
S3 is not hibernating. In hibernation all the contents of RAM is written to disc to a hibernate file the computer shuts down. At power on reads the contents of hibernating file and resumes activity from where the hibernation occurs. In S3 mode only the RAM remains powered and refreshed, the rest of the computer powers down. The main advantage is that, at power on, the computer doesn't need to read a huge file from disk to go fully operational. Regarding the lcd case, nice. When you'll have an English version I'm interested, because I can't understand Spanish. Thanx

**Finceleb** · 05-04-2008, 01:26 PM

Ok, no problem.
Now i understand whatever you mean with S3 (I think...)
But, now I have an power inverter in the car runnig like power supply, then i shuts down completely the power with a general interruptor, then, RAM haven´t any kind of alimentation...
Then I dont know if i can use that kind of powering on/off..
I will investigate...
