Thread: Aux input factory radio

Anyone know how to get into a programming mode on the factory stuff to try and activate the aux option? Ugh! Help!

Just to be clear. In order for the aai gm12 device to work u have to have an external slave unit. Such as XML radio or an external CD changer. It doesn't use the cd/auxiliary button. It uses that switch that came with it to override the slave device

i just found this write up last night. looking for a aux hook up for the regal. How you can add an aux input/mp3 player without an adapter - LS1TECH

if you read through all 27 pages, around page 25 i think, they talk about using wires 4 and 5, and that jumps the radio signal. vs the cd player. best part is if it dont work, all it takes two wires to be soldered back together and it back to normal.

im thinking of popping my radio out and seeing if my guts look the same or close enough to try this.

i might just put in a different 7" radio with screen. one with a usb/aux and all that jazz. get one from best buy and have geek squad install for free. or is geek squad not a good way of doing things?
