New Install AVH 4500

That looks like the AC control system busted open. As far as the glare, I would suggest turning up the brightness and contrast quite a bit, as well as tilting

As far as the glare, I would suggest turning up the brightness and contrast quite a bit, as well as tilting the screen 3-4 "increments". Glare was unmanageable otherwise.

My hu isn't turning on. I think I have everything wired correctly. I've installed hu's before, but none using aswc axxess. I'm befuddled. How many wires on the axxess get hooked up, 3? Ground, power and remote and plug in the 3.5mm?

I only use three wires and the 3.5mm when I hooked up the axis. But then again I can't get mine to switch sources or tracks.

Make sure you have a good ground. The bolt in the middle of the cubby up near the triple gauge worked fine for me.

Default Antenna adapter blue wire

Hello new member here. I have been searching and haven't found a definite answer.

Is that blue wire from the antenna adapter ok to splice with the microbypass blue + blue/white wire from the radio harness ? if not where did you connect yours?

Thanks in advance.

Yup- the 350 and 370 have an antenna amplifier that needs power from that line. Splice away.

yah, i still haven't encountered my 4500BT being that washed out. might be something to do with the top film that was used on your production lot or something, but sounds that you fixed your situation.
