Operation
Once installed, the Connects2 CTSGM-49 module operates automatically to maintain factory functions. There are no user-adjustable settings on the module itself.
Ratbetjening:
Your factory steering wheel controls will function as they did with the original radio, allowing you to control basic functions of your aftermarket head unit such as:
- Lydstyrke op/ned
- Track Up/Down (Next/Previous)
- Valg af tilstand/kilde
- Call Answer/End (if supported by your aftermarket radio and vehicle)
The specific functions retained may vary slightly depending on your vehicle's original configuration and the capabilities of your aftermarket radio.
Factory Chimes:
All factory chimes (e.g., seatbelt warning, door ajar, low fuel, park assist) will continue to sound through the dedicated chime speaker provided with the module. The volume of these chimes is typically controlled by the vehicle's factory settings or is fixed.
Fejlfinding
If you encounter issues after installing the CTSGM-49 module, consider the following common troubleshooting steps:
| Problem | Mulig årsag | Løsning |
|---|---|---|
| Ingen strøm til eftermarkedsradioen. | Incorrect wiring, blown fuse, or module not receiving power. | Check all wiring connections, especially power and ground. Verify vehicle fuses. Ensure the module is properly connected to the vehicle's power source. Remember the module's accessory power output is 0.3A and not for powering the head unit directly. |
| Ratbetjeningen virker ikke. | Incorrect SWC wiring, incompatible aftermarket radio, or vehicle not supported for SWC retention. | Verify the SWC wires are correctly connected between the module and the aftermarket radio. Check your aftermarket radio's manual for SWC input configuration. Confirm your vehicle model and year are listed as supporting SWC in the compatibility table. |
| No factory chimes or chimes are too quiet/loud. | Chime speaker not connected, faulty speaker, or incorrect module connection. | Ensure the chime speaker is securely connected to the module. Check the speaker for damage. Verify all module connections are firm. Chime volume is typically fixed by the vehicle's system. |
| Check Engine Light or other warning lights appear. | Module not communicating correctly with vehicle's ECM. | Double-check all module connections. Ensure the module is receiving proper power and data signals. If issues persist, consult a professional installer or vehicle technician. |
