Thanks for getting back to me. I have contacted Pioneer and they said they would send me a new cable. I also looked up the one on Ebay ($55) and it is the same one that Pioneer will send me "CDP 1195". I purchased my Head Unit on Ebay at a great price $895 including the Pioneer Camera. My installer would of picked up the tab if I had bought it through them. He wants $100 to install this defective cable because he claims he has to take out the whole dash again. My concern is if it is indeed defective or did our installers crimp a line or left the connection loose? I would like to watch the installers do the new installation but I doubt they would let me. What is a nightmare is if the new cable becomes defective at some point? I sure hope not. I really appreciate the sound this HU brings to the table and I have to have everything work correctly. Especially speakers!! Anyway, what are the chances of this happening? It has never happened to me before. If anyone has had this happen to them please let me know as I am going to try and Pioneer to reimburse me. Yes, I know. Good luck with that one.
