Has anyone on here fitted the aux in adaptor to there headunit? if so please leave a comment, fitted mine today and have a slight issue thanks

How did you get the aux lead into the unit, as I presume this was done from being the unit?

I'd like to fit an aux lead to my standard symphony unit, but don't have a clue how I do it

You can get adapter kits for the Symphony head unit that use the connections a CD multichanger would have ordinarily utilized. A quick Google will throw some of these kits up and a few installation guides too. From memory it's not too complicated, just gotta slide the head unit out.

Yep! I fitted one on my fabia last weekend, just search symphony aux on ebay. My kit was 25quid and an easy job. Just plugs in where the cd changer would go. I took the glove box out which reveals the perfect place to attach the earth wire. Sweeeeeet!

i know this may soud stupid but does the noise from your turbo and power steerig interfere with the sound? when u pause my ipod then put the volume up on the cd player it makes the noise when you drive? done something wrong i presume?

Symphony can suffer from interference. It's a reasonable unit but does have its drawbacks.

I presume you mean you've got a connects2 or similar? Placement of the unit and the ipod in relation to the dash and the electrics will make a difference. As will where you run the cables. You could shield the cables or run shielded cables or shield the entire cable plus connects2. And/Or fit a choke on any additional power cables.

Ultimately if you can't hear interference when playing at normal levels I wouldn't worry about it. Unless you're into Delibes or Faure....

J.

its the connects2 adaptor, what would u recomend sheilding the cables with?

Moving the earth further away from the HU will sort that out.

perfect thanks will try it at the weekend

I earthed mine on the back of the headunit.

any issues with interference? also found out today that when the iphone charger is plugged into the socket and phone the interference is worse? hmmm......

None what so ever!

Reads about right. A car dash area is "noisy" in electrical terms and iPods etc aren't really developed to cope with that sort of problem. Any unshielded cable in the vicinity of the dash can potentially become "aerial like" and pick up interference from the cars's electrics and electronics and the iPod or iPhone isn't built to reject or suppress that interference.

Hey Guys,

 

I have got the connect2 kit, all wired up the same way as above but what do i have to select on the unit now to get the ipod playing through it, i pressed a couple of things and got "no cd changer"
