Relax man, you are going to do fine. I know what you mean I do this on a side job I have had my share of mishaps. Go grab a beer email them and sit and calm down. The worst thing you can go right now is go work on the car if you are upset.

If you look at what I bought, its listed as the SAME model number. and i have the antenna adapter too. I thought they might have given me the wrong thing, but then Scosche website has a picture and it looks like mine, not like yours.

Ya some models can be the same and not have things. You always have to be careful.

has anyone used this speed signal wire when installing their GPS units? Kinda nervous I'm going to blow something up if I'm wrong :)

Pin 18, if I remember, was orange but I could be wrong.

The only thing it will do when you hook it up is disable video and all when you start driving. I would recommend not using it. But yes that would be the wire you would use if you wanted to hook it up. That is up to you. Orange is for the revers wire in the trunk. But they could have orange on this harness as well. Pin 18 is correct.

Yeah hooking up to the speed signal will NOT disable video if you have already overrode that. The speed sensor will allow dead reckoning when satellite signal is lost or is weak and improve gps accuracy.

So if you happened to get the harness without the illumination pin in it.. Couldn't you just make a jumper to the wire thats in pin #9 on the factory harness? I dont see why that wouldnt work.

From the ones I have installed it will not let you watch vieo while in motion.

Also yes that could work if you wanted to do that. Just make sure that the pin is in the harness good so that way it will not come out and blow a fuse.

Also make sure that the ill wire is + and NOT -

Do you know what wire to ground or cut on Factory Nav so you can use it when your driving. The Stillen exhaust and Berk HFC make it hard to use voice command :driving:

No idea on that. Alot of the aftermarket Nav's / DVD have easy bypasses to get them to work while driving (probably on purpose or people wouldn't buy them) but have never messed with the factory nav.

Just wanted to confirm for everyone, that pin 18 is in fact the speed signal wire and it does work. With my overriden Pioneer AVIC-Z110bt it still plays video etc while driving with that wire connected.

My company produces electronic equipment.
 

You`d better stay here.

As does my overridden F900BT that I just put in. The only thing I don't like about it over the Z3 in my C6 is that there is no page that shows all the sensors and inputs.

Thanks J3adSeed. Was just putting my AVIC-D1 in and was looking for the speed wire. I have no problem bypassing the safety crap with the speed wire connected. It helps the accuracy of the GPS and the digital speedo guage and nav works better with it connected. With my unit you just have to add a pin to a blank slot in the connector and ground it to bypass. My scosche harness does not have a pin in terminal #18, maybe i can rob one of the unused ones for that.

Any luck on a reverse wire closer to the dash area?
