Got some new stereo toys to play with
Installed and AVIC-Z130BT last friday. As I suspected coming from the AVIC-U310BT it was mostly plug and play. Here are some install points in case anyone else is planning on doing this swap in the future:
OEM wiring is present for USB and AUX in center console. The USB plug is and independant cable and runs from behind the deck to the center console. Whoever installed the Pioneer simply zip ties the connectors for this cable out of the way. I removed the entire cable from my car without much difficulty.
The aux cable is run in the same loom as the normal stereo harness and is not removeable. The connector is tucked out of the way in the center console since there is nothing for it to plug into.
In my attempt to clean everything up as I was installing, I removed the OEM USB line as well as the USB/AUX line from the U310. In the end I am now left with the USB/AUX/VIDEO cable from the Z130 run from the deck to the center console (and just dangling out the hole left from the removed OEM panel).
U310 USB/AUX line gets run from the deck to the center console. They are USB/3.5mm jack on one end and both terminate at a single connector at the other end. This single plug plugs into a PCB inside the center console USB/AUX panel which has a surface mount 3.5mm jack and USB plug. I removed the connector with much difficulty, it appeared to be superglued in as well as the USB/AUX panel was superglued together. This cable was also run from the deck to the center console.
I plan on trying to make a replacement panel that will terminate the Z130's USB/AUX connectors at a panel mounted in the center console. I am currently having difficulty finding a panel mount USB port though. I may have to get a circuit board made similarly to the way it was done OEM.
Black Pioneer power connector is the same for the U310 and the Z130. A couple pins had to be moved/added to make the wiring work (parking brake(green), remote(blue) and VSS(pink - moved over from Z130 harness) . The PAC SWI module works as it did from the factory (pressing the voice button goes to the phone screen), however it appears to not be programmable. I tried to reset it to see if I could get the voice dial to work with no success. I may end up replacing it with an another newer one that can support the voice dial button on the steering wheel.
Something else to note is they wired in an auxilary power harness as well. It looks like a standard power harness for an add on accessory (like a sirius or xm tuner). The harness is just bundled up and zip tied to the main harness. They must have done this in order to make adding sattelite radio easier for the dealer.
As for the microphone, the pioneer microphone from the U310 was clipped to the headliner near the rear view mirror. I removed the OEM mic from the map light console and stuck the pioneer microphone in that spot. It's hidden now, but I haven't made a phone call so I don't know how it affects call quality.
I have some pictures off of my phone I will toss up here for you guys/gals to see.
Amp and sub install will wait for a bit. I may install the amp next week, but the sub enclosure won't be here for a while so I'm in no rush. I also ordered a back up camera off of ebay and according to the shipping tracker it should show up today. Might be able to get that installed before I have to run to BC for the weekend (for a friend's wedding).
I'll keep this updated as I do things.
