RedFloyd Posted March 6, 2012 Author Share Posted March 6, 2012 I guess i will have to figure it out, that will not hook the ipod up to the new electronic you made. Why did this not come with the kit then if it was well explained? Sorry, i dont mean to be a pita. Mostly because the price of the cable/ipod-connect-recharging-device is better in the US than here in Canada. Also, I'm building/desiging electronic modules, I'm not a cable reseller. If you REALLY want one and don't want to purchase it by yourself, I can ship you one for some $. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBlubaru Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 I got mine within about 3 days which was a pleasant surprise I installed mine today and couldn't be happier. I haven't gotten a chance to drill and install the switch yet but great sound quality and easy install.

Moderators BarManBean Posted March 11, 2012 Moderators Share Posted March 11, 2012 Installed mine Friday/Saturday. Relatively easy install as long as you can follow instructions. Only took 20min or so to get the radio out taking my time. Brought it inside and disassembly/reassembly with the board probably took about 2 hours, but I'm slow. I don't solder, so that part scared the shit out of me but turned out fine--maybe used a bit too much solder but it piled up nicely and touched nothing but the wire and the contact point! woohoo! Put the radio back in and everything sounds great Headed to radio shack today to pick up a female jack to mount in the cubby, also still have to do the switch. Thanks, Sebastian. great product and awesome instructions to go with it.

mustangendsley Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 i got it in and it sounds okay, but the voices are weak and echo and there is no bass, What could i have done wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedFloyd Posted March 12, 2012 Author Share Posted March 12, 2012 The audio cable might be only half way inserted on the aux in module. When installing, make sure that you use the provided ty-rap to prevent the cables from coming out while re-installing the head unit in the car. I suggest that you ty-rap all the cables together with the antenna cable, as this cable is solidly fixed to the head unit. Make sure that the cables (audio and switch) are not stretched, they should have some loose left on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slobaru Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 I got mine after about 3 days too. Installed it on Saturday, everything was pretty straightforward. I've already installed the Jazzy engineering kit in another car so I was pretty familiar with the process. Like others have said, the soldering part scared the hell out of me as well. I'm happy with it, the sound is SO much better than the shitty FM transmitter that I've been using for the past few weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators BarManBean Posted March 12, 2012 Moderators Share Posted March 12, 2012 i got it in and it sounds okay, but the voices are weak and echo and there is no bass, What could i have done wrong? Are you getting sound out of only one side of the car? That's probably a pretty good indicator that the cable is not plugged in all the way...

mustangendsley Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 No i get both side speakers coming on. The plug is all the way in both sides. and when i say no bass there is none. Sometimes you can only hear the trible only over the words. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mustangendsley Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Once i pluged the charger into the ipod and into the cig lighter i got the bass back and the voices, but slight echo still. Sounds clear, but on some songs the music is too much over the words. Has anyone had this happen to them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverBulletBoxer Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Just installed my Leptronix aux in last weekend. It took a few hours, but everything went according to plan. The sound is great, the input detection works perfectly, and the quality and design of the piece was great. I highly suggest this mod to anyone with a 4th gen LGT.

Sounds clear, but on some songs the music is too much over the words. Has anyone had this happen to them? So you put power to the ipod and it worked? I'm no electrical guru, but could this be a grounding issue? Was your soldering spot on? Also, have you tried a different input source? Other ipod or a laptop or something? Also, does the cable you are using have two black rings around the metal plug or just 1?

mustangendsley Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 (edited) i think the soldering was good. i did not conect the two silver spots together. wire to that spot all together. i used a male input with and aux input plug in on the other end. Then used a male to male conector from that to the ipod. to recharge i used a cig lighter adapter with a usb port. i used my iphone also into it and get the samething. I know i put it in right.

lopezi Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 Excellent product - I ordered mine awhile ago and received it (10/2010) but never had a chance to install....I forgot I even had it but when looking through a box of car audio parts I saw the package...made an effort today to install and it was straightforward and relatively simple. I thoroughly enjoy it. Thanks again for designing and making this product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mustangendsley Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 Well i took everything apart and then hooked the power up to see what went wrong. It turned out the male to male adapter wire i used was bad. I put a better one in and now everything works great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
