Vito sound explorer keygen
If not have a search for CAN Adapters and view their documentation as often the wiring to common radios in the Mercedes range is shown. I think there should be a small plug and loom separate to the speaker and power ISO wiring that plugs into the upper row of radio terminals.
Have a look around and see if you can locate it. Please let me know if you need any more information. Today one mercedes dealer in athens managed to install physically the radio cd but the unit is not functioning due to prod error which ligts after few minutes. The technicial cannot do this procedure. The details of this are outlined in the original post as you have no doubt read. Good luck and I hope you get it sorted out quickly.
Look here: Look specifically at. Hope it works for you. I press it for about 30 sec and still nothing, not even a beep. It seems the mute button speaker symbol with a line thru has a similar function if pressed and held, it should also turn RDS on and off according to the manual. Worth a go, maybe this will work. Failing that I am stumped!! Let me know how you get on. I found the solution to the problem, Switch the radio on without the ignition on, and turn to radio function.
Switch off….. Thanks for the useful info, what I think you may have actually done there is selected the function AUX ON as described in the manual page photo shown in the post. You may be fortunate that your radio is already configured to allow the extra options to be selected, some sets are not.
I will test out your solution with a radio known to be without AUX that I have here and report back on the blog. Thanks again for the informative input. That is a fantastic find and for that I truly thank you. I will put together a video later this evening on how to access this menu and show what else is hidden in there too! Thanks again for letting me know and sharing this top find on the blog. Hi Cat, I did have a quick scroll round the test mode menus and unless I am mistaken there is no mention of RDS On or Off, I suppose it could be a region setting but at this moment I am still unsure.
Let me have another look over the next few days and I will report back. Part of me still thinks that if the RDS function cannot be selected as per the manual it is possibly faulty.
What did the dealer suggest? I realise you are not impressed with your local dealer but why not use the larger network of dealers to get some answers, its a Mercedes after all and no matter where it was purchased the support should still be there from any dealer.
Maybe try calling the next county dealership on the phone to start. You should now have RDS enabled. Here is the video showing how to access the HA Sound 5 Test Mode menu and the options listed within it. Assumed Functionality and Key Settings. GAL is a special circuit which automatically adjusts the radio volume according to vehicle speed.
This compensates for higher noise levels at increased speeds. BTW his software is quite a piece; once connected he knew everything about what I do with the car. At least now you have it sorted out… eventually. Maybe this is a point to note. Thanks again for the useful feedback. All the best. Thanks for this, just did this in my Vito and it works a dream.
Like you I have put in a chassis jack for neatness but had no bother programming my stereo and even was able to turn the fader on! Hi there, Here is some information regarding the pin outs of the ISO audio connector, I am sure it will help you out. My sound 5 display is illuminated but utterly blank- are there any known settings to re-activate the display?
Hi Jules, There is couple of things worth checking out, if your vehicle has the Ipod connect kit as factory Standard disconnect this at the head unit end and try the radio again as it has been reported that issues with this can cause the blank display. There is a chance that that the radio just needs a hard reboot! You will need to disconnect the power multiconnector at the rear, wait a few seconds then reconnect.
Again this has been reported as a solution to the blank screen. Lastly I suppose it could be a faulty display, this can only be really checked out by a Car Radio repair centre where they will test it for you.
How do I remove the Sound 5 from the dashboard in a Vito? Hi there Martin, I would imagine the same procedure as the one in the model. You will first need to remove the clip-on plastic trim that surrounds the perimeter of the radio, carefully lever this off using a trim puller or thin plastic spatula. Once this is removed the fixing screws are visible and everything there on in is straight forward. See here this describes how to remove the radio to get to the heater control etc. Thanks for help Nik.
Hi there, Is this the part you have damaged. We did like you wrote obove and we got the aux connector to work. Now we want to install a subwoofer in our Vito with sound 5 but we are having problems with the remote. We cant get Power out from the connector to the amplifier. Ground and Power is ok from the battery but the radio will not give the signal to the amp to start? Anyone that have a solution to this?
Hi Fredrik, I would look to utilise the amp power connection usually pin 6 yellow plug also used for amp and CD changer power dependant on wiring configuration you could trace the wire that normally powers the radio antenna preamp and tap into that for switched power control when radio is on.
Having not used this or measured it I cannot say for sure, may be worth a go. Good luck. Best Regards Steve. We dont have the AMP Output in the testmode but we will test with pin 6 yellow. After testing we will be back with information. Now we have Power to the amplifier but we dont have signal from the sound 5. Do we need to reprogramme the stereo? I cant get it to work. I Think that we are going to the MB servicepoint and connect the car to a computer to make it work.
Hi Fredrik, Sorry to hear you have had limited success finding the audio output. Perhaps you could report back your findings from MB when you have them it would be most useful. Many thanks, all the best. Hi there, Its unusual that there is no existing loom there for a radio even though no head unit is fitted, but I suppose anything is possible with special order vehicles.
If you had purchased a decoded radio one with this feature removed or disabled then it will function in any vehicle without the CAN connection. Indeed it will work perfectly with just simple power connection and speakers. I would be looking to get the radio you have purchased to a car audio specialist and have it decoded remove the PROD feature to work in any vehicle.
It may be almost as cheap to but an already decoded radio from Ebay than get yours done but the choice is yours. All the Best Steve. I went to the mb dealer and he connected the computer but we couldnt get it too work.
My sound5 doesnt have the amp on off in the menu. So we are back at square 1. No we have audio in from the phone but not audio out to the subwoofer. Hi Karina, It sounds likely as if the antenna has become disconnected in some way, this could either be a simple disconnection at the rear of the set in the dash or the connection to the screen antenna has broken or elements corroded if you have a screen antenna.
Its worth pulling the radio and having a look behind. Good luck, Steve. Hi I have a sprinter with the audio 10, I was considering buying a Audio 15 that has been removed from a mother sprinter, Will this be a straight forward swap or will this be locked to the van and need to be re programmed by Merc If it needs to be programmed etc is it worth the hassle or would I be better maybe just buying a aftermarket unit perhaps maybe with sat nav do you have any recommendations on units with and with out sat nav possibly even for use with a reversing camera Many thanks in advance.
Hi Robert, You have presumed correctly, no matter what radio option is fitted to the larer vehicles it will be coded to the ECU. Because the opening in the dash is double DIN you can have virtually any set up you require in there! Alpine do some very nice screen based head units that have both fixed and retractable screens. The only thing to remember is that some of the higher end devices need external amplifiers to drive the speakers so make sure you research exactly the parts required and total up the final cost correctly.
Good luck in your choice! Do let us know how it went. All the best, Steve. Hi Steve sorry to trouble you again if I get a audio dealer to decode the audio 15 unit, would it just plugging and play so to speak or would it still need to be programmed etc by Merc This is my own fault I should have spec it when I was ordering the van.
No probs Robert, Plug and play! Make sure you mention to the audio repair shop that you would like reverse camera and aux audio in enabled, they should be able to check this is active and if not make it so. Hi Steve Further to the questions the other day, my previous sprinter a mid model pre seering wheel controls etc had a sound 5 fitted to it and I fitted a audio 20 to this van although i did have to buy a set of leads to reconfigure the connections into the back of the radio and this worked ok with out requiring a code.
My question is the van was remapped by super chips as is my new van would this make any different to the radio requiring to be decoded, Please excuse my ignorance. Hi Robert, I cannot answer your question — but I suppose its possible.
Maybe you have hit on the answer, its great news for you whatever the reason… There could be a chance that the replacement radio was originally decoded before being taken from the other vehicle to fit in yours I suppose.
Thanks for getting back to me with the results of your findings, keep me posted on your swap out. All the best Steve. Thanks for any info. If you have steering wheel controls this can be done with an adapter and a limited range of aftermarket radio head units.
Its all about quality — basically you get what you pay for. If you want top quality take a look at Alpine, Kenwood and Pioneer you wont go far wrong here. I have a AU vito with the S5 radio fitted and have been having issues with poor rx on fm. Using this test mode I was able to turn on the fader, Rds and the amp functions- now I will see if my FM rx issues have improved.
FM problems suddenly occurred after the last Svc visit re aircon issue. Is there a possibility that the dealer has inadvertently changed a radio setting while connected to the vehicle? Mike T. Hi Mike, Its more likely that they disturbed the radio antenna connector or crushed the antenna wire when inside the middle section of the dashboard. Its also worth just looking behind the rear view mirror, behind the roof trim, to ensure the antenna connection is still attached to the screen element correctly.
Whilst its a possibility, I feel its unlikely they changed any radio settings and more likely they physically disturbed something. Steve, First off, thanks so much for all the valuable info. Awesome having all this in one place! I have a sprinter America. It came with an audio 5. I found a audio 15 on eBay, which I confirmed works thru a regulated 12v power supply, with no prog message or anything.
However, after merging two wiring harnesses one for the 5 and one for the 15 in the van I get nothing, no power to the unit at all. Switching back to the 5 the radio fires right up.
Any thoughts would be appreciated! It sounds as if you have a wire connected to the wrong place. There is also a possibility a control fuse has blown depending what wire is in the wrong location.
Use this chart to check your work — double check with a test meter to be doubly sure. Thanks very much for the quick reply Steve. In the season 3 episode " Another Toothpick ", Vito's brother, Bryan Spatafore, is violently beaten with a golf club by a young hot-head known as Salvatore "Mustang Sally" Intile and put into a coma. Vito is vindictive and demands someone render Sal's comeuppance. Tony pressured Cifaretto into ordering Jackie's death; Vito performs his first on-screen murder by shooting Jackie, Jr.
Although the cover story for Jackie Jr. Take your pick. They all look alike. Vito is subsequently promoted to capo of the Aprile Crew, as he was second-in-command. In , in the Season 5 episode " Unidentified Black Males ", it is disclosed to viewers Vito is in fact homosexual after he is seen performing fellatio on a security guard early one morning at the Esplanade construction site by Meadow's boyfriend, Finn De Trolio. Vito intimidates Finn into silence, first by offering him baseball tickets, but then conveying the impression that if Finn lets the word slip that the consequences could result in his own demise.
By the Season 6 premiere " Members Only " in , Vito had lost over pounds and appeared in a weight loss commercial. Tony was shot by Uncle Junior in the same episode, and was in a coma for the next two episodes.
While Tony's recovery seemed uncertain, Vito hinted at the idea that he should take over as boss. At the time, Silvio Dante was acting boss, but ended up suffering an asthma attack from the stress. Vito informed DiMeo Family capo Larry Boy Barese that he was the best candidate for boss since he was the capo of the highest-earning crew in the family.
Paulie and an associate stole the money, although they were nearly killed by two Colombians guarding the stash. Paulie was seriously injured during the theft when one of the dealers kicked him in the groin, causing serious medical problems. Paulie demanded a higher cut because of his injury. Paulie and Vito also became angry when Silvio demanded a higher percentage of the cut go to Carmela in case Tony did not recover.
Tony finally awoke from his coma, which made everyone ecstatic—except Vito who was hoping to step in and take Tony's place. His weight problems and attempts to lose weight resemble the health problems which were suffered by Colombo Crime Family capo Gerald Clemenza. In the episode " Mr. He and his family left the wedding. But back at home, Vito informed his wife he was going to "make some collections". She found it odd that he would be making collections so late at night.
Later, that evening while making a collection at a gay bar, two Lupertazzi Family associates, one named Sal Iaccuzzo, saw Vito dancing provocatively with a gay man. The Iaccuzzo character was based on real-life Gambino Crime Family capo Matthew Lanniello, who was known to extort and own several nightclubs in New York City that catered to homosexual clientele.
Vito tried to play it off as a joke, although the two men were not fooled. Vito, fearing the consequences of his outing, went home to collect money hidden around his house before going on the run. For sentimental reasons he also takes a picture of him and Marie from when they were younger. Petrified of the consequences if his Bisexuality were made public, Vito went into hiding.
He stayed at a bed-and-breakfast in New Hampshire and tried to pursue a new life away from the Mafia. Under the alias "Vince," he took an interest in antiques and claimed to be writing a book on Italian boxers. He contacted his family only once during a brief phone call. He also began drinking heavily. He started a relationship with Jim Witowski aka 'Johnny Cakes' , a short-order cook who worked at the restaurant where Vito regularly stopped for breakfast.
Vito was impressed when he found out Jim was a volunteer fireman. When Jim first tried to kiss him, Vito pushed him away, called him a fag, and the two scuffled briefly. Several days later, Vito went back to the restaurant and apologized, saying, "Sometimes you tell a lie so long, you don't know when to stop. They drove on their motorcycles to a secluded spot by a nearby lake, where they picnicked and had sex. Vito moved in with Jim shortly thereafter.
Vito continued to spend time with Jim, but Jim eventually saw through his story about being a writer. Vito confessed to some of his past but continued to lie, claiming he was a divorced construction worker. Jim arranged for Vito to work as a handyman, but Vito soon tired of the tedium of a working life. Vito's drinking worsened. Finally, Vito decided to return to his former life in New Jersey. He cooked a dinner for Jim and left the next morning while Jim slept.
Vito drank while driving back to New Jersey, and crashed his car into a parked vehicle.
