Subaru Kenwood 2008 Transplant Security Problem

[Leehaydon96]

Hi guys, I have a bit of a problem installing the Kenwood Navi Stereo fitted to the later Subaru models into my 2008 Impreza. I have followed the pinouts and made my own harness and I am sure everything is fine after following ae64.

However when I sit it into my car, it just displays Security and does nothing more. I have tried ringing around local dealers and audio specialists but no one is too interested in helping me, so I have come here. Thanks for your time

So one of the pictures I’ve got from google is a photo of the headunit I have. And the other photo is the Security screen its stuck in. Theres no way of typing any code from what I can see

If you have some photos of the unit and the existing wiring that might be useful

Hi Jay762,

 

can you do me a favour and attach the second and 3rd wiring diagrams from that link as they are blurred out on the site linked.

 

Stereo is this type, but I have this steering wheel with the phone controls so it has specific addition wires used in a 2009 forester SH diesel

 

there is a blue/white wire from b68 connector going somewhere but I don’t know where, I think it is to the 24 pin Stereo connector

Those blurred out diagrams become available as a purchase

I only see x2 diagrams top one clear bottom one blurred

I am not sure the head unit will work with those switches - I had that unit in my RX and we could not get the phone to connect to it and work other than playing audio through the RCA jack. The steering wheel controls worked for channels volume etc though. Ill have a look in the manual this weekend see if there is any further info on phone specific modules, I know there is an Ipod one and a multi cd player one

Hi ,

 

getting back to wiring , does anyone have a 24 pin plug with all the correct wiring colours available as I think an extension and solder in to repair my loom maybe a better solution to fix the car, hope someone can help
