Hi, I have an 04G356mt without the Satellite option and I would like to use the satellite connector in the trunk for alternative audio input like from an mp3 player or other source. I have the service manual with schematic diagrams and I can see the audio inputs and data I/O lines from the satellite connector to the audio module.
When I press the SAT button on the dash it says " NO SAT" and it is probably detecting that there is nothing plugged into the Satellite connector. I assume I have to enable those audio and data inputs and that the audio module detects when there is a satellite module installed.
There is one more line on the connector which is labelled REQ which I am guessing is a line that enables the satellite audio and data inputs. Can anyone verify that? and if so if I put +12v or possibly ground the REQ pin will that enable those inputs? If I had a schematic of the satellite receiver I could probably figure it out.
Can anyone out there help?!?
Thanks in advance

 

Hi,

I too have posted that question as I would prefer not taking apart the dash. Unfortunately, I did not get a good response. The Satellite device gets its power from that plug as well as transmit its audio signal back to the main unit. Logic says that the connection should work using a PAC AAI-NIS. If you get an answer to this question, please let me know.
