A/C Information On / OFF
if i turn on, the air conditionar image appears when i turn the radio on...but how to send AC signal saying the status to the radio?
anyone knows how to manage this option ? what are they for?
thanks

Don't use imgur.
No way I am going to register and logon (because that is what imgur requires), because someone wants advise.
(or did you "protect" your images?)
Edit: Sorry. Only first image.
1. You have the american GPS system and the Russian Glonass system. GPS mix means that both systems are used which increases accuracy a lot.
2. You have antennas that can extend/retract into the car's bodywork. That is what this is used for but I do not know what ON or OFF means (I do not have such an antenna)
3. Don't know, but I guess it really means that the necessary apk is not in the firmware and therefore not on your unit.
4. ?? What do you mean?

No it doesn't, but on reply the link is displayed.
The CAN bus sends the statuses of the airco to the unit. If you change "something" in the airco settings it will be shortly displayed in an overlay by the CANbus.apk.
In some cars with some CANbus controllers it is even a 2-way functionality: You can change airco settings from the unit.
The door ON/OFF is also controlled via the CANbus. If you open a door it will be shortly displayed in an overlay by the CANbus.apk.

yes the door is working but not AC info...
maybe because i have KEY1 and KEY2 wire not connected ?(i dont know where to connect it)~
@surfer, i have found a few solutions for my head unit, do you think a good idea to start a FAQ thread only with answers for common questions?
i can help but i am not experienced making the thread...if you help, then i can try to feed the thread

key1 and key2 have nothing to do with the door. For the AC you have to ask Joying.
I already created such a Q&A thread, but it already moved to page 5

A/c is for the VW CanBus. If you install the Unit with canbus into a VW. You can control the Hvac system along with a few other features. Also your cars info will display on your radio. Without owning a VW. You would need to add a BT Obd tool. Like $5-$10 on ebay.

Thanks for the reply
regarding Key1 and Key2 can you help?
thanks

In the Joyings you have CANbus models that come standard with a CANbus for the type of car you have. These units also have a CANbus motherboard. These units ONLY read the CANbus whether you have steering wheel keys or not. The key1/key2 cables run via the CANbus and only "understand" the binary CAN pulses because there is a different circuit on the motherboard.
These motherboards can not read resistance over key1/key2.
Other Joyings come with a universal motherboard. These units do not have a CANbus and therefore not a CANbus motherboard. These motherboards only read resistance over key1/key2 because of the other circuit on the motherboard.
Of course it is the cheapest to just produce one motherboard with 2 circuits on it. This means you can modify your universal motherboard to CANbus motherboard, or the other way round, by soldering/replacing some resistors on your motherboard. That is the only direct way.
You have a Joying compatible and you mentioned you have a CANbus. I guess it works 100% the same as on a Joying, so that means that your key1/key2, via the CANbus, can only read CANbus binary pulses.
You will not be able to use resistance based SWCs with your unit without soldering OR you should use the [Joying for VW] Universal steering wheel controls with arduino from @bambapin.

well i have a canbus adapter.
my car is a renault Clio IV
the problem is that the keys are working, but i cannot program them in other way, also if i make canbus info print it is receiving data, but apparently not preocessing it.
maybe i can share photos to explain better the problem?

Did you change settings in " Factory Settings" ?

andriod head unit factory setting menu

I have installed an Andriod 4.2.2 Head unit in my 2013 dodge challenger, this is a unbranded unit,
I have been trying to get my SWC to work.
I can enter a "Factory settings menu" with the Password "126" this allowed me to change logo etc.
there are many options under canbus settings in this menu under "Applications"
Mine is currently set to jeep (union) there are other options ie jeep hiworld , Chrysler and many others.
I have searched for posts that explain these menu,s with no success.
My handbrake canbus radio interface works OK but not the SWC.
can I do any harm trying other settings?
The supplier of the radio just tells me to hook up key1 and key 2 wire and ground, however my radio installer
tells me these are only for resistive touch buttons.
The unit was supplied and installed with a canbus adaptor.
Can anyone help me or point me to a thread that explains this.
Thanks Mike
Its a HuiFei type unit (its not unbranded - there are about 10 brands), read the HuiFei thread.
Most steering controls work by sending a certain voltage down the wire that your head unit interprets. Like 160 mhz is play/pause while 190 mhz is volume up. (those numbers arent accurate, but you should get the jist). This type of controls is a direct analog type and what the chinese units use to intrepret your control data.
Some cars,I'm guessing yours is one of them, use a digital signal that can't be interpreted by the analog wires that come from harness. You'd need an SWC interface as a go between for your car and HU.

Or a CAN Bus adapter from the manufacturer of his unit. but as I said earlier all the info he needs is in the HuiFei thread . . .
Re Headunit
Thanks guys, so as I interpret this I need a further adaptor additional to the canbus adaptor supplied by the head unit manufacturer.
I would still be interested in finding an explaination of the factory settings menu ,the one you need the password to enter, as I can not find a post on this?
Hi everyone, I need help with my HU. I followed the factory guidance to set up the wiring and installation but my camera lines appears 90 degrees (from the left) instead of the center. I have tried mirroring, no luck. Please see picture. Can someone help me please.

Peugeot 407 SW with Android system - can't hear sound

Hello everyone
I have a 2006 Peugeot 407 SW and I installed a 2 din radio with Android. Connected every wire into its place, but I do have a few issues:
First, the private seller didn't told me anything about setting it up. But I managed to find the 6 digit-code accessible settings (what I found it was 000000 through a Google search) where I can setup the right type of canbus for it.
Ok, the canbus device I've been given is a Raise PSA-RZ-15, so thats the one I selected back in the options.
Steering wheel commands do work ok.
When I set the gear to reverse, it tries to obtain the back camera image (I don't have the back camera installed yet, but its ok).
And there are a few numbers in the trip statistics screen, so it gathered the travels I made recently.
But I can hear no sound, either from radio or from USB or Youtube through a wireless connection.
Any ideas? Do I need a different canbus device? Or I just need to select a different device in the advanced settings?
Thanks
If the unit is working then most likely you just connected the wrong wires.
I've got a Peugeot as well, so most likely you will have a similar connector to mine.
There should be a big male type connector for the one you removed from the back of your original radio. You have a female type connector which connects to this big one and the other side which is much smaller, and that connects to the headunit itself. Make sure it's connected together properly and the fastener is closed.
The canbus decoder is for the headunit to be able to communicate with the vehicle canbus. This makes the trip info appear on the screen, and the steering wheel controls to work. The one you have with your unit is usually enough for most people, but there is an upgraded version which can display A/C information and steering wheel angle too(for reversing).
If the steering wheel controls are not working, that's because you need to set the canbus decoder type in the settings. If your exact car type is not listed try something like 308, 408 or Berlingo, or RZC.
Well, I can't just have connected the wrong wires because I did not made any manual connections with the wires. I just plugged everything where they could fit; each connector only has 1 socket to fit. Its like having 1 USB, 1 VGA and 1 Serial ports and connect them all. Can't make it wrong.
As I have said, the steering wheel controls ARE WORKING.
The reverse gear activates the rear camera view.
I just can't hear anything.
In the advanced options panel, the canbus I have selected IS the canbus module I have, but that one refers as being to another vehicle. The one listed as being a 2006 407 Peugeot is actually a Hiworld.
What I want to know is:
Do I need to exchange this Raise and get the Hiworld module or just change this in the options? I tried several Raise ones but none makes the unit plays sound.

Thanks for moving this to the correct place.
In fact is a CVD1810 / 8227 system. I have steering wheel controls and reverse camera. Just need to know what canbus to select in the options. The real one I have is Raise PSA RZ 15 and ofc I tried that one. No sound. Tried a bunch of others, no sound.
Do you have a link for the product?
Also, can you take a picture of your old head-unit and the wiring for the new unit?
Ok here ya go.
DSC_0060 is the cable from the car.
DSC_0061 is the cable connected to the canbus.
DSC_0077 is the back of the old unit
About that product link, as I bought it from some guy here in Portugal for a 2 day faster shipping, I don't have any link, but I can provide a link to a very similar unit (and to confirm my idea that the problem is the canbus module, as this following link, the supplied canbus is the one I want to try next). In fact, I have ordered it through Aliexpress and am waiting for it to be delivered and check it out (just the Hiworld module and the cable, not the whole unit).

Hello again!
I have an update here:
I ordered the canbus Hiworld W25, wich is apropriate for Peugeot 407, and in fact I can see now all vehicle informations on screen like A/C and such. But the sound is still not coming to the car speakers... I'm starting to believe its a faulty wiring or something from the unit itself...
Another update:
My car has JBL speakers, subwoofer and amplifier. So the regular canbus ordered is not enough. I need a Peugeot 407 with JBL speakers specific canbus. Maybe the Raise PSA RZ 67 will do this?
You need to make sure your audio cable is connected. You can search for installation videos on youtube, about the screen that appears when reversing, you can ask the seller where to set it up, this feature can be turned off.

All cables seem connected in their places. What happens, some guy in Peugeot forums sent me this link:
https://pt.aliexpress.com/item/1005004252265202.html?gatewayAdapt=glo2bra
Its a canbus + cable for Peugeot 407, and this cable has a TON of connectors my current cable doesn't. I assume this cable will solve my issue, so maybe I don't need to mess up with the wires.
Hello!
I have received the new canbus + cable, wich I got from here:

Well yes, this harness has a speaker on it (like my previous one). The difference is this one has more connectors to plug to the original radio and send the sound signal to the android.
When parking, I see the graphic on screen with red and orange bars depending if I'm close to some object, or very close. And it displays where the object is. Similar to this image:

Sorry, but what do you expect?
Anything not working? If yes... What???
If the unit switches on with Key in Pos 2 or ignition and powers down when removing the key, the CANbox works as expected.
If you want more, you may set the correct CAN settings in the head unit.
Thank you for your reply. so as in the picture can bus disconnet So i can't use car app to know how much diesel my car uses also no warning when door open and other thing.I tried all can bus

In this case get in contact with the seller, give him all information about your car, incl. model year and what is needed and ask for the correct Can adapter. Might be the wrong one for your car.

You just get information from the CAN if the CANbox could interpret the messages. If not, nothing is shown.
I´m still pretty sure that the CANbox is the wrong one or the settings in the head unit are wrong.

...and I mean to read out any error message stored on the modules.
It always can be possible that any issue on the CAN sets an error code in the BCM (Body Control Modul).
BTW: If you just connect something to the CAN, you need to make sure that the CAN is terminated.
Needs to get read out with an OBD scanner.

Could you explain this last message? How would you recommend looking at the CANBUS to determine whether a head unit is causing a short/issue versus another vehicle component/wiring issue? I'm having a lot of issues after installing a new stereo, but was having a few minor issues beforehand in the same general area of the vehicle.

Well...
If any attached system has issues and disturbs the CAN, you will have multiple issues in this CAN.
You need to connect an oscilloscope to see what is going on on the CAN and if the signals are correct. If they are not correct, you need to find the controller or device which is disturbing the communication.
As long as this has not been fixed, you may have issues also with the radio. Analyze the issue correctly and fix what you will find.
You need to get the diagram of the CAN where the Radio is attached to and then follow the diagram to narrow that down.
At least a scan for errors with a good OBD device will help to filter out what is wrong.

Android radio and problem with central lock after install -Citroen ds5

Hello Everyone. Sorry for my bad english not my native language.
I read all internet and cant find solution to fix my problem.
I buy this Heade Unit - https://pl.aliexpress.com/item/4000...t_main.21.21ef1c24K3NInA&gatewayAdapt=glo2pol
Afrter install everything working fine (steering wheel buttons, 4g, GPS, etc) only one problem with cetral lock. When I turn off the ignition after about 5 minutes, the central locking does not work with the remote control, and when I turn it back on works normally. Funny thing is that 2 people bought this radio but with android 10 (i have 11) and they all work.
I check canbus setting in the herad unit option and i have RZC >Peugeot/Citroen>ALL. The name of canbus is Raise but i dont have on the list that name. I can change RZC to ALLWORLD>Peugeot/Citroen?DS5 but what I wouldn't choose the door functions,sensors etc - not working. Only RZC >Peugeot/Citroen>ALL. have correct setting, but what about cetral lock? how to fix that -it looks like the radio puts the key module to sleep. in the settings I have something like lock control but some pin wants:

You really should contact the seller.
As you did not show MCU and Android version, no one would be able to help here.
On top: The French cars are some sort of difficult and b i t c h y, when it comes to CAN connection and providing car functionality. May be you got the wrong CAN adapter.
Spoiler: photo about device
Seller send me canbus Raise like one the pictures
Spoiler: CanBus
tell me what to do?
And last thing he send me RAISE can bus and when i check in the settings i don't have that Can BOX TYPE, and must use like on pictures - because it's the only one that works (steering wheel buttons) but no central lock

but i can update this:

Yes sure. Even if you chose the wrong type (low, mid, high)
Remarks:
That the door lock is not working anymore with connected radio, that tells me that there is a mismatching CAN box setting. Seems to deactivate the central locking mechanism, there is an interference in the CAN signals.
That should throw an error message in the OBD for sure. You need to get in contact with the seller again and tell him that there is an error which deactivates the central lock.
Ask the seller which CAN box settings to use. If the sell units for your car, they should know which version to use to get at least most things working as expected... But you should know: There is only a minimal set of functionality available for most cars. Mostly they are providing Clamp 30, Clamp 15, RVC and light.
If your car is not listed in the CAN settings, you should not count on any further functionality.
You can update the CAN box, if you have the right file for it. Did the seller send one to you?
I checked all settings. I can mark my car on the list but if i do this steering wheel buttons not working (only on that HIGH). I Update canbox but its nothing change (no new funcion, settings etc) work like basic.
maybe some settings of the radio cause the BSI to go to sleep. some function consumes energy and bsi sleeps to save energy.
Just to drop here some info that may be useful to someone. I had precisely the same issue with the central locking system on a Citroen C4 II e-HDI, basically same stuff as DS4. The problem was the canbus decoder (Raise). I was sent another one from simple soft (XP type) and it works perfectly. maybe it's helpful for someone else. regards
Sorry to resume an old post but I've finally managed to solve this issue without external players.
Basically, what happens is that the ****ty Canbus BOX "raise" it's like always connected and draining energy.
You can lost a lot of time talking to the chinese seller, OR (if you have a bit of DIY skills) you can simply connect the RED wire of the canbus box to any power source that goes on when ignition is on (for example any led or the lighter 12v).
After that you'll enjoy a car without any chinese headunit added issue!! Cost of this? 0 euros!

YT9218 radio problem with canbus

Hi, I have had a YT9218 radio for a couple years now but I didn't buy the canbus for my car, a renault megane 2 cc, so I couldn't use my steering wheel controls. Recently I bought it as I found it for cheap in aliexpress and upon connecting it and setting up the canbus protocol it kinda worked, but I couldn't remap the steering wheel keys to what I want them to do. Also, I couldn't fin the right car model in the protocol settings, but I selected one of another renault car model and mostly worked.
The thing is, after a bit of research I updated the 9218 canbus apk and a lot of car models appeared, including one for megane 2, but after selecting it nothing works, I have to select again another car model for it to work. I was hoping that after having the option for megane 2 I could remap the keys, but it was not the case.
I think the problem is that every time I press a button of the steering wheel it's being detected as two key presses with the wrong car model, I'm going to attach a picture of it. And when I select megane 2 as protocol it just doesn't detect any key presses, just "noise", also going to attach a picture of that.
I hope someone can help me with this, I have the volume buttons working which is half of what I wanted, but I'd love to be able to change songs with the steering wheel controls too.
I've never updated the firmware of the unit, and that's something I was also considering to do, but in the xygala page there's no bare YT9218 model, all of them have some kind of surname like YT9218C, YT9218CH...
Anyway, thank you very much for any help that you can give me!

provide information about the device, I will add a photo of how the info should look, where the buttons on the steering wheel and the canbus application are set. system screen, button mapping and can app are the same for android 6 and android 8. You have android6 (api23), you can update to android8 (api27). I have a device 9218DH from android6, I updated to 9260 android8. basically, you can also insert the software 9216BJ, 9212, 9213 and similar. It depends if everything will work. all versions worked for me, but I have a DSP, that's why I have a 9260dsp because the DSP didn't play sound. try a factory reset, it might help

Hi dodo, first of all, thanks for replying!
About the info of the device, I posted some pictures of what Hardware Info app says the device is, but if you want pictures or info about something specific ask me and I'll upload them asap.
The button map app looks exactly the same as mine, but sadly it won't remap any buttons, I click on the button on the screen which I want to asociate with a button and the press the steering wheel button, but it won't bind, it will do the button action (for example, volume up button will increase the volume) and a message will appear on the screen saying that it couldn't bind. And lastly the menu from the last picture you attached, I don't have that or I don't know how to get to that :S
About upgrading the software, I downloaded the firmware named "xyauto_ui2_9218C-ota-20200705_HIFI.zip" that I've read worked for another person in the forum with the YT9218 car unit, but haven't installed it yet, I think I can do it over the weekend, or at least I hope so, but I don't know if that will fix my problem with the canbus, as I'm not sure what's causing that double signal when the steering wheel buttons are pressed...
xyauto_ui2_9218C-ota- OTA is an update via usb key. if it doesn't work, you have to use the spFlash tool program on the computer and use the version from xy auto for PC, not ota. If you didn't have canbus until now, did the radio work correctly? did it turn off correctly? did the backlight dim when you turned on the lights? check the wiring of the unit. if you have a disconnectable wire on the wiring (marked in red in the picture), after connecting the canbus it must be disconnected, but I don't know how it is with the Renault brand. have you tried a factory reset?
I forgot again. Cable Key1 and Key2, if you have them on the wiring, disconnect them. They are used for control from the steering wheel if there is no canbus. Maybe that's why the double signal

I know, I mostly want to avoid using the spflash because I don't have any space to have the car on during all the process...
The radio worked in the way that it played music and connected to my phone, but I had no steering wheel controls or anything like that. It turned off correctly, that worked, but I didn't even know the white touch keys were backlight until I put the canbus........ xD
I don't think there's any detachable cables on the unit, but I'll have to check again. Any way, this is the canbus that I bought and it connects exactly as in the image:

No, I haven't tried a factory reset, but I don't know if it could help with the problem, you think so?
I'll check the key1 and key2 cables, can they be permanently into the canbus? I mean, are they detachable like the picture you posted or to detach them do I have to cut them?
Again, thank you very very much for all your help!
try a factory reset, it's the easiest and cheapest way. In the picture you have cables key1, key2. I think they should not be connected if you have canbus. If they are connected, a double signal to the steering wheel may be generated (one from key1/key2 and the other from canbus). I think that even the "illuminate and reverse cam" cable to the reverse camera should not be connected, this is all replaced and controlled by the canbus converter. I'm writing again, maybe I'm wrong, I don't know the Renault connection. Check the connection or try a factory reset

Okay, I'll try a factory reset first, it should be done through android settings right?
But those two cables end up in nothing don't they? They are not connected anywhere. In any case, I'll try to do everything this weekend thank you very much again for all your help!
yes, try restoring factory settings. and yes, the key1/2 cables should not be connected (they should be replaced by a canbus decoder), try and inform us, but I'm sorry if it doesn't help you, I don't have a Renault

Well, I've been in the car and tried restoring factory settings, but that didn't help. I couldn't check the cables because I didn't have tools at hand, I'll try seeing that this weekend...
I've checked the cables and the "key" ones are not connected, everything else was fine as far as I could tell. I contacted the seller of the canbus for support, but I haven't had any response yet....

write what the seller said. it's hard to help more, maybe it would help to update android.
I have another question, did you select the canbus type in the factory settings? password 8888. there is a guide in this topic,item 2
[SOLVED] No Connect CANBUS Decoder
I mounted my android multimedia device that I bought for my vehicle with ISO connector and HiWorld canbus. My vehicle's parking lights are communicated with reverse gear and ignition, but I cannot control the steering wheel. I can't choose...

I updated android with the zip I said and it behaves the same way... and the seller just told me to configure the protocol settings with XINPU but it did the exact same thing... I think the buttons with the radio are not remappable, in any case, I'll update with anything new they say me
