Code professional radio back to stock

cgtheboy · 04-23-2018, 02:26 PM

What steps do I use ? What is the module to choose ? Rad2 ? I ask because I made the mistake of trying to connect my phone and a bluetooth adapter (knivo) at the same time and now I have no volume.

Coding back the radio to its default settings won't help you. As it is almost impossible to modify the coding values of the rad2 unit only by connecting one or more devices to it, more than that by wireless connection. After you car sleeps(around 15 min after you close the doors by remote, and they stay closed) when turning on the car, its computers will restart, if at that time you still don't hear any sound from your speakers, check your mute button and volume knob. You could get better diagnostics if you would tell more of the car(year, audio system) and of the issue.

There is no way anything you connect through the aux could effect
the programming on your radio . It might short out the aux input.

On an 06 you could can recode the radio with a simple k/d can cable .
Before you do anything I would try a hard reset it might mean pulling the
fuse for the radio.

Maybe you need to clear the learned phones off your radio and relearn the pairing.

My cars an 06 with the logic 7 . I can no longer get into the BT settings . I pulled the radio fuse to no avail also unhooked the negative battery cable. If there is some kind of radio reset please share . I ordered a fiber optic loop to see it the bluetooth module died . Will check this weekend. BTW by no volume I mean no sound and no volume indicator. When I push the BT button nothing happens .

If there was something wrong with your most loop you
would hear no sound. (Is this the cars?)You started out talking about a Kinovo
which only interfaces through the aux with aux selected.
This makes things very unclear.
Was there ever a selection for BT do you have a TCU?
Did you do a Vin check on the car to see what options
it came with?
If you have a tcu the aux may come through that .

First of all you need to tell us which things are working with your
radio and what was working before thing went bad .
