Symphony radio Service Mode - Page 2

Duotone · 7th March 2008, 21:20

When I retro-fitted a Symphony I was unable to get the speed dependent volume working.
I tried connecting the K Bus to pin 19 on the blue mini ISO, but no luck..

So, if you can remember how you did it..

It's too late for me, I have moved on to Hi Line sat nav.

If I get chance I'll take mine out and see what's plugged into where.

I am having trouble with this on my HK set up. Is this manually adjustable?

Cheers

Did any one manage to suss out how to stop that speed related volume thingy? It really is annoying...

You could try disconnecting the speed signal wire (WRY) from pin 19 of connector 0983 at the rear of your Symphony and see what happens.

What exactly is annoying you about it? Is the volume increase too much or too little and at what road speeds? Let me know and I'll consult the speed vs. audio output table for GAL 1 - 4.

Well I would like to get into service mode on my Symphony.

I switched the unit on and held down Man for more than 8 seconds, but all that displays on the screen is

OCEAN FM P1
FM1 97.5 MHz

That is correct cj - The radio when in service mode automatically tunes into the last tuned-in FM station. I think if you use the left/right selectors you can cycle through the options in service mode. If it's not the left/right selectors then it's another button or dial. It's been a while since I've done it myself but what you are seeing is entirely normal.

I'll give that a try when I rip out the stereo unit and install the SLE chip. I've managed to put it onto the highest setting, so it's not as bad as it was. It's more noticable on the CD than the radio though....
