Last time I messed with the mute on a NCDC was a bucket of worms, and a few years back now,  there;s a pin on the back of the HU that needs to be High (+12v) (or was it low 0v?), when I modded  a TM loom it didn't work and had to go directly to the mute pin on the HU, if that helps.

Pin out for mute should be on the HU label from memory.

Ps, did the modded Navi lead work?

Hi Chris.

Have decided its safer just to get the right wiring kit..as linked by RobG..SOT 109 and go from there, as at present wires are everywhere after the last "idiot" I employed  tried wiring it up with the wromg loom.

Yes Sat Nav mod works fine  and is neatly mounted on the metal of the parcel shelf.All cables are secured and connections covered in foam wrap so thats a job jobbed..thanks 

Just need washers bits as discussed and we are back on track for the "big launch " next week

Now that you've got it sussed, do you fancy fitting my Parrot MKi9200?

So sorry Mr BlackViper90210 but I am going to pass on your kind offer as I am surrounded by bits of car wiring at the moment and think I am well overdue a "nervous breakdown"

Well save me a space in the Breakdown unit!

Need to remove the kit from my Veccy bofore I fit it....then sell the Veccy which hopefully will stop SWMBO moaning at me for maybe 5 secs

[biggriffin]

Would have thought,be a straight swap from a Vectra to an omega.

[blackviper90210]

Hope so. I fitted it to the Veccy and it worked so there is hope for me yet

Getting round to doing it now though. Get home from work and its pitchblack, weekends arrive and I've got 2 brats lovely children of mine wanting every second of my time

Sooner its done the sooner I can sell the Veccy and get my mig on the drive again

Well I am pleased to report "The Parrot Flys Again".

Managed to get it sorted after an hour or so of head scratching  as couldnt see why the radio wouldn,t mut down when the thin black mute wires was earthed.After testing and retesting have come to the conclusion that for some reason or another the NCDC2013 I have fitted has has got a fault with the mute and just will not shut down.Fortunatley I have a second NCDC 2013.( as 1 does for emergencies  ) which afterreplacing works fine and mutes down as it should so all is well with the Parrot and it is working fine.

Just now need to fit the paired screen from the replacement NCDC to get functions all working and thats a jobbed job

Still need to sort headlight washer/fit rear shelf/all interior trims/glovebox etc etc and its done ...the End is in sight now

Happy days!  Its typical that the equipment was faulty after all your hard work!!  Nice one mate

Anyone else doing this, do it on a TM loom, and ignore all the Autoleads shite, their compatibility charts are useless (ie, wrong), and the quality of the stuff is suspect.

Do I have the TM loom in mine as I don't have the TM button?

No, but every breaker will have a bucketload, and a damn site cheaper and better quality than Autoleads shite

Cheers TB, but I have to ask as I don't know the answer

I get the TM loom, what do I do with it (waits for sarcastic comments) 

[05omegav6]

I believe it is a straight forward plug exercise as far as the HU goes, selecting the appropriate connections on the other end to connect the phone kit to

Perhaps a guide somewhere

Send the audio down 2 wires, mute down another, pick up a 12v, ign12v and 0v to power the Parrott, and if its compatible, pick up the conference Mic wires to save fitting Parrott mic. Simples.
