Default Modifry DCI Wired Problems

Well the title says it all. This weekend I installed a Pioneer DEH-3700MP in my S along with the Modifry Wired DCI. After wiring everything and hooking up the radio, the only feature of my factory dash controls that worked was the mute button.

As background information, I opted not to wire up the optional grey or blue wires.

Since the controls were not working I went to the website for troubleshooting. The first thing I did was try rewiring the DCI to ensure that I had good connections, still nothing. I then got my multi-meter out to check for current. The Red wire read 12v. I then checked for the ground which was good as well. Finally I checked the resistances on the green wire which matched up with what Modifry's webstie said they should be.

At this point I'm not really sure what to do. Before I go through the process of trying to return the DCI for another one, incase the one I got is defective, I thought I would come to the boards and see if anyone can help.

Email Bob@modifry.com. He will be more than happy to help you out with it. I had the same problem with an Alpine, his service is tops. He emailed back in less than a day.

As far as sponsors go on the forum, most of them are pretty good guys, don't be afraid to contact them first, they are your best bet for getting the right answers.

Yeah, I'm planning on doing that today too. I figured I would come to the boards though incase anyone had dealt with a similar problem and had a solution that worked for them.

Had a similar problem...

Check the miniplug wire... it may have come loose during shipping. The ground should be okay, but the white wire connected to the next pin may be on its last leg... Pop out the crimp connect and solder the white wire to the connector.

My miniplug connector came loose during shipping as well. I siliconed it back in and it's been in my car for 3 years now no problems since.
