Will this work with our japanese V36's?

Yes, I believe there is a cable that will make the iPod family work with the car. It is the proprietary cable.

Note - the iPhone only just came out in the US when my car was made (2007), so from what I understand compatibly with the iPhone is questionable. I remember reading on some G35 driver forum that it plays the music but doesn't charge is iPhone 3G because it's missing some chip, or something like that.

Obviously it'll work with the R/W/Y cable, but I'm guessing you won't be able to control the music through the player this way.

I'd love to install a little set top box into the AUX and wire it up to 12V... TV in the car.

i jsut had a look at the stero connector in the car, and nope doesn't seem like it will work. the US cable is 16 pin and the jap one has different shape and the nubmer of pins.

guess we're stuck on the ipod AV cable then, which means no console controlling or integration and changing songs will ahve to be via the ipod only.

Additionally the AV cable doesn't charge an ipod

i'm hesitant to get the AUX (3 input) cable as i heard it doesn't charge the ipod/iphone? correct me if i'm wrong

and the AUX wont play video if the car is in motion.....is that correct?

No it doesnt charge the iphone. I have to unplug the iphone and connect it up with another lead that goes into socket to the left of the aux inputs for charging (its a bit of a pain)

It doesnt play video when in motion, but I know that can be disabled.

I just use an AV to 3mm plug, it just means you have to select songs manually at the ipod but if your songs are decent you just leave it on shuffle :D

Just wondering...

If you had a Jailbroken iTouch or iPhone with displayout or some other dispay mirror tool installed, could you use these 3 plugs in the arm rest with an apple AV composite output cable, to mirror the apple device on the nav screen using the AV source? If so, then you could get one of the AV cables with the built in USB charger to give a charging solution as well.

Any owners out there find a plug that will charge and play music for an i phone yet?

I seem to cover this topic every week or so on the phone. its not possible to do and control the unit off the radio.

I can sell you a charge lead with audio and video out but thats it.

      Auto Electrician Workshop Recommendation for Reverse Camera Not Working CKV36 (SYD or WOL)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      It can't be some stupidly proprietary video signal coming out of it that only Nissan's can understand. Surely you can just find some generic camera to stuff in there and use hot melt glue/blu-tac/gaffer tape to hold it in place if need be?

      Update: Tunehouse looked into the problem and identified a wiring issue between the camera unit and the connector. They managed to get it working , but did warn me at some point it will stop working again. From their perspective it is unserviceable and will need replacement. They did some research and found that the new replacement camera would be Approx $1400 supply only (their fitting cost would be $190) . They did provide the part number (28442-JL05B) and a quick google of the part number shows that these are rather expensive brand new (seemingly no longer in manufacture) for the places that still have them in stock, with the used option potentially presenting  the same issue down the track at some unknown point. They are happy for me to supply the part so that they can fit it. Decisions, decisions... I can definitely recommend Tunehouse (thankyou Vee37!). Cost for the diagnosis was as quoted  ($190) , car was ready on time and communication was top notch. Their workshop is super clean and modern, and there was plenty of car candy parked out the front on the day I went.   Would definitely go back.

      to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it

      A31 Digital Climate Control

      For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf
