Recently (ok, for a while) I noticed the temp gauge on my 'aught six gv had decided things were cold. I didn't think much of it as Northumberland is pretty sodding cold anyway however early last week on my lurch back home from picking up my wife at the office things went bad... The dreaded 'orange b...

I had a go at reading my codes on the GV, thankfully it reported that there was nothing to worry about. I've never hooked up an ODB interface but I have to report it didn't take much time to figure out. I suppose one could reset errors and the like but really I was more interested in seeing if I cou...

could you not simply open up the radio, and desolder that plug, and solder on a trailing plug of your choice? And it may come to that, however I suspect from various posts online at least two of the pins need to be bridged with a resistor to act as a trigger to allow the system to go into a mode wh...

Agree with the lads in the direction to go but personally I'd budget for installing a diesel lump...

Oh and also I had a mate with a little SWB vit which was pretty darn impressive in stock format + muddies!

Wow this has taken me ages to get an update... OK so on the right hand side of the larger black port is what I'm going to hazard a guess at being the input from a cd-multi changer and this is the input that I need to find a plug for so I can go about making an aux input... http://i205.photobucket.co...

I'll get one Dan, well, I suppose I can get a photo of the port on the back on the unit! Will reply soon with this...

Hi Guys Following on my introduction thread in the New Members forum I've been mucking around for a while now trying to hack an Aux input onto my 07 Grand Vit Euro spec stereo system. My question to the internet is: where's a good place to start looking for audio connector blocks when you have very ...

You can thank iOS auto fill for that one, I have a lot of friends and family down in SA and we'd like to move down there some day so I spend a lot of time on SA forums and Wikus is my other moniker, also I praat Afrikaans (not that it'll be all that much use on a UK suzuki forum, I guess? ;) ) Temp ...

Twiss - I was aware of that and it's funny you should mention it... I recently got some super duper walkie talkies in here for the new building I've had a hand in setting up. I spoke (at length) with a (delighted) radio type salesman who was clearly ex MOD and more than happy to discuss crystals wit...

Hmmm, the one I got was specifically for one of the (slightly) older style iPods, feels like something that'd drop out of a cracker though :-) I may look into this option further as I see most generic gps' seem to have multi media capabilities so maybe that's an option... Amazing that even in 2007 s...
