How to run AUX sound through Clarion HU

Xterrian · 05-20-2002, 12:00 AM

I searched and searched to figure out how to use my 8 pin DIN connection on my Clarion HU for AUX sound in. After ordering the service manual and confering with Electroken on the Xterra Owner's Club message board, I now have an AUX input for my HU.
The HU in my 2000 XE Xterra is a Clarion CD AM/FM unit. It's model PN-22181. Here is a picture of the pinout for the DIN connector:

Hook your left and right audio inputs as shown and provide #1 with + 12 volts and viola music through the Head Unit. I hope this helps someone and thanks to ElectroKen for figuring it out for me.

Or "Null Channel" I found a DIN plug that fits perfectly at Radio Shack, Catalog Number 274-026. I just wired mine and it works great with a walkman CD player. I have my computer in pieces on the kitchen table right now, so I can't report on how well it'll work with my system. Anybody know where I can get a 9"X10"X6" enclosure? I can't seem to get my existing setup in a box smaller than that.
