Plug and Play Bypass Kit (DVD, NAV and backup Camera) Discussion

wheee!

I believe the earth (ground) will be the centre two poles on the left side. The 12V feeds to the Hi and Lo settings as they are selected so i believe they use the centre two pins for separate grounds so both lights don't come on at the same time.

I would also be interested in the kit with the REMOTE.

There goes my 2/2 plan.

OK, so 3/3 will work. Numbered though, and I want #2. BUT NO MORE!!

3/3 works for me!

I wasn't certain so I thought I would go take my car to pieces and the switch looks be exactly the same. Did you meter in situ?

Looking at the switch

1 2
3
4
5 6

It looks to me like 2 and 6 are the illumination circuit and if measured in situ that would explain the lower voltage

3 is +12V from relay feed for heated seats
1 goes positive in one position (1 and 3 being connected)
4 goes positive in the other position (3 and 4 being connected)
5 is ground use to illuminate the position 1 and 2 lights based on position of switch

and obviously in the central position 3 isn't connected to either 1 or 4

This is a great thread guys, and it makes me wish I had Nav! I don't mean to thread jack (as I am trying to figure out the wiring of the heated seat switch for another purpose), but am wondering if anyone has confirmed the above diagram? I'm a rookie with a multimeter (although I have a helper, my daughter's boyfriend who is a car audio nut), but it seems to me (us) that:
1=positive to high position
2=illumination of high pilot light
3=power from 12v source
4=positive to low posotion
5=8v illum from "headlights on" source
6=illumination of low pilot light

Anyone able to confirm or correct this?
Thanks

That certainly differs from the switch I was looking at, but that was in a GT-R. I have a 370z switch on order so will confirm when it arrives.

We appear to agree on 1, 3 & 4

I'm surprised there in no ground/earth in your list but will see when the switch arrives. Did you meter the plug while disconnected from the switch?

Jeffblue

this stuff is so over my head. i understand a lot of concepts in various realms, but this is definitely not one of them.

ProfessorDave

I haven't done that yet, and I too was surprised there was no ground in my list. Hoping one you more experienced guys can help nail this down

Oops, quoted an earlier post before seeing Whee!'s post above. Can you translate that (thanks for the diagram, BTW) into English for noobs like me?
