Using my Mp3 player with HU-605

Sep 25th, 2002, 06:28

I would like to connect a Mp3-player to my original stereo, but there is no AUX-in connector, so I was thinking about using the CD-changer input.
That would have been pretty easy to do if I only could change the source to the CD-changer, but that is not possible without actually connecting a real CD-changer.

Does anybody know if it's possible to "trick" the head unit that a CD-changer is connected, thus making it possible to choose this as the input source?

Any tips appreciated,

BR

daniel

have a look in the "general messages" and the "new cd player" thread

that got very close but just need the "short" to be performed

i used an old headphone lead chopped up to try the left, right and ground inputs but without the short it didnt work.

now if the short will work i cant say but if you want to give it a blast and let us know

cheers

I have an AUX input adaptor for the CD-6 input of a volvo head unit. It's currently attached to my Volvo C70 T5's SC-901 HU and providing an Aux input for my mp3 player.

I'm selling the volvo next week, so any takers?

£70 for the adaptor, only 4 weeks old.
