#104 of 114 Dual harness? by sbrodie Sep 07, 2008 (9:59 am)
I just picked up an 04 tsx w navigation, like it, but miss the audio that I had in my Legend. Does anyone know if I can do the following?? I don't really want to alter the factory nav/radio system but.   Can I also install my Kenwood excellon radio, that would then allow me to add my sirius equipment and kenwood changer?? I'm thinking it could install in the little door under the factory radio. BUT, I would need to do something about the wiring harness. Is their a dual harness made by anyone? One that would allow plug into the factory as well as the Kenwood? Any thoughts? Replies to this message: bvdj84 (Sep 15, 2008 7:21 am) sbrodie (Sep 15, 2008 8:33 am) sbrodie (Sep 25, 2008 6:16 am)

Replying to: sbrodie (Sep 07, 2008 9:59 am) First off, are you wanting to use the power from this kenwood to power the whole system, while still using the navigation? That is possible, but realize, you will lose all functions of using your steering wheel controls to change the settings. You will be using the navigation strictly for its purpose, and the kenwood for the sound.   I am not sure I would do that, I would keep the factory as your main system, while trying to see if you could add the kenwood as an auxilary into the main system, therefore leaving access to all features of the car. I hope I understood what you were saying.   Any sound shop, not bestbuy or stores like that, but a sound shop, will be able to tell you whether you can hook this up like an auxilary. Therefore you can hook your surris radio up to that. It can be done. Replies to this message: sbrodie (Sep 15, 2008 8:33 am) sbrodie (Sep 25, 2008 6:16 am)

Replying to: bvdj84 (Sep 15, 2008 7:21 am) I want both. I want to be able to use the factory radio for am fm ect, and the Kenwood excelon for sirius and usb (which it has). A local stereo installer told me yesterday they can do it, but they want $500.00 seems a little pricy. From there description, it doesn't sound that hard to do. They did say they need to order a part, but they won't tell me what part, or how they will do it, prob thinking I'd just do it on my own(might be right if it's real easy.   Anyone recommend an installer in the San Fernando Valley???

Replying to: sbrodie (Sep 15, 2008 8:33 am) I did it myself, and it works better than expected. Will be doing the final mounting of things this weekend. The excelon kenwood really sounds much better than the factory, and since the factory radio is still hooked up, I can compare the difference with the push of a button. Now I have the kenwood for sirius, usb and aux plug in as well as the knewood cd changer, and the factory for AM/FM
#108 of 114 '09 Tech Package - what discs will play by gatorsf Oct 10, 2008 (5:23 am)
Does anyone have definitive information as to what type of discs will play in the system?   I know DVD-Audio, Audio CDs, and WMA/MP3 discs will play. What about DTS encoded CDs?

I have the base tsx...does anyone know if a usb flash drive will work to play audio through the existing controls (i.e. not like an aux input, where the controls are within the mp3 player)?
#110 of 114 Issues with anti-theft radio code by dianka555 Dec 15, 2008 (6:06 am)
My car battery died yesterday, and like always after recharging, I was prompted to enter in the anti-theft code. I tried entering a 5 digit code radio code, however it wouldn't let me, so I entered the 4 digit code for the navi first. However, now I'm unable to enter a code for the radio. It tells me that the code is needed, however it doesn't prompt me to enter it. None of the buttons associated w/ radio or CD work. I called the dealership & they told me that I need to bring the car in for them to look at it. However I wont be able to for the next few days, and was hoping that maybe someone else came across the same issue.

Replying to: dianka555 (Dec 15, 2008 6:06 am) I know that if you put the wrong code in so many times it locks up. You then have to wait a certain amount of time and try again. Replies to this message: dianka555 (Dec 15, 2008 7:25 am)

Replying to: nj2pa2nc (Dec 15, 2008 6:53 am) the issue is that it doesn't let me enter in the code at all. I was only able to enter the code for the navi. which is a different code.
#113 of 114 Can I delete the 2 XM bands from my choices? by fifteenkey Feb 07, 2009 (3:33 pm)
I have an '08 TSX w/Nav and did not purchase XM. Is there a way to delete the 2 XM bands as choices when I move through them by pressing the "Mode" button?   Thanks.
