Is it possible to use a 9V battery and LED to test for continuity and pin out the coax?

Great to see others wanting to help figure this out . Hope his input helps this come together faster !

GTPprix · 11-19-2013, 09:31 AM

Thanks for the kind words Ofer

Just so no one is confused/disappointed the programming I did on this particular unit was to set the unit up for an older vehicle as well as unlock the VIN portion of the unit so its plug and play into a new vehicle. The OTHER thing I did was unlock all the features while moving IE entering addresses etc. Not a whole lot of extra content unlocked but I will be checking into that to see if there is anything else in there we can use. I wanted to keep it relatively simple for the first test and it sounds like it worked!
