Chinese Headunit Canbus

Hello...
Not sure if this is the correct forum for this or not so apologies.
I've just bought and installed a chinese Android Auto head unit into my Ford S Max. I think the unit is an XY Auto 3.1 8227L, nothing on the box but this is what is specced in the system info. I've purchased a Connects2 Canbus adapter to use with this so that i can retain steering controls etc.
Everything is all wired up correctly and working but I can't find Connects2 in the Canbus setup list or a Ford S Max under any of the other canbus manufacturers. Does anyone know how I can sort this out?
Other issue is that I no longer get my parking sensor beeps - does this go through the canbus as well?
Not fitted a aftermarket unit in years so no real experience with canbus setup.
Thanks
You need to have a look at the right forum... I asked a mod to move your posting to the right one: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android-auto/android-head-units

Android head unit Steering Wheel Controls-programmable without the adapter?

Hi, I have a Podofo 7" stereo with 2gb, single din. Trying to install in a 2009 BMW 128i. I only bought it to have steering wheel controls. No steering wheel controls. Axxess tech support tells me that the ASWC-1 is not supported when using off brand Chinese head units. I have a Scosche wiring harness. I'm not able to get the Axxess unit to work. Is there a way to get rid of the Axxess adapter completely, and just program the head unit to communicate with the BMW canbus?
Thanks,
Jimmy

This kind of adapter is supossed to work with professional audio brand such as Pioneer, JVC, kenwood etc. where device only accepts analog signal.

The best and the simplest solution is to buy complete new harness with canbus adapter dedicated for android head units and your car.
Something like this will do the job:

But make sure what type of plug is in your stereo and car harness. And canbus adapter too..
I bought simillar for my bmw x5 and works fine. beside stering wheel controls it provides open-door alerts (and trunk ) and simple data such as vehicle speed, revs, milage, temperature.
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THIS IS JUST WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR!!!!!!!!
Hi, use and buy HIWORLD canbus and settings for multimedia it's much more stable. If you can find any on sale.
This ones provided in links are unbranded. I don't know if they will work.
