HOW TO: MK5 GOLF Nokia Car Kit PART 2
« on: 20 May 2006, 20:09 »
Next remove the heater controls and place them on their side for easy access - donÂ’t unplug it though!


ok now pull the gear lever surround upwards


then undo the 2 screws holding the ashtray in place


Then place your remote button from the control unit  where you would like it and feed the wires beneath the ashtray and retrieve them at the rear of the air con control unit.






then replace the ashtray, screw the screws back in & replace the gear stick surround



MAKING CONNECTIONS

Ok next we take the RADIO (FEMALE) end of the adapter lead and insert the plugs that we removed from the radio loom


then insert the RADIO end of the adapter into the radio


next plug the cars radio loom into the adapters other (male) plug


then push the wiring loom into the dash, out of the way but leave the CAR KIT wiring hanging out.


next feed all remaining car phone wiring through to the rear of the radio bracket and out of the air con bracket



FEEDING THE MIC WIRE THROUGH

The next phase is to feed the mic wire from the cubby to the air - con bracket area - tape the 2 highlighted wires together




and feed the wires behind the dash up to the rear of the heater controls





MAKING FINAL CONNECTIONS

ok now simply plug all your connectors into the CAR KIT CONTROL UNIT


then fix the unit at the rear of the heater controls using Velcro etc - then push the radio back into place


There should be 1 wire left waving around - the blue one you cut off the loom at the beginning - this provides the car kit with the switched ignition supply that it needs - strip around 1cm of the insulation off.


then join it to pin 20 of the heater controls - a black wire with a blue tracer - if this is not present then find an ignition live using a multi meter.




the unit is now functional - pair up your bluetooth phone and test it!


when using your phone the radio will now show phone or telephone, mute your radio and the speech from your call will be played through your front speakers!

REASEBLE THE CAR!  :cry:

Doc,

I think you need to stress how important it is to keep the microphone wire away from the a-pillar airbags. If someone were to take a shortcut when routing the wire and get parts behind the pillar trim it's gonna be a tad dangerous in a crash :nerd:

Good work! :cool:

Yup the interface lead is the best way to get them or you can cut into you wires on the rear of the radio - Do you have climate control or manual air-con? 

I don't sell these items so ask Dom if he can supply you with one!  :wink:
