    for anyone having a problem getting it to power up i had to work around. lots of people have this problem. I have a 2011 XL fleet model and after research online found that the vehicle harness behind the radio doesn't have a key on power source so you have to run a new ACC line to the red power wire on the back. I used an add a fuse to fuse 32 in the passenger kick panel fuse box that was unused since i don't have power windows or mirrors, literally took 5 mins, this bypassed the can bus that came with it tho. i don't have steering controls on the truck so it doesn't really matter for me but everything works now, unit doesn't tell me what vehicle i have though so i'm sure theres some options i'm not getting now but it does what i wanted it to do, can still connect to wifi hot spot and use all apps and for $140 i cant really complain (2g+64g)
    hope this helps

      I’m wanting to put this in my 2010 xl and I’m not sure what you did here, I’m confused. I would really like to upgrade my radio as it’s broken and won’t even turn on. You run the new power wire to the fuse panel?

      @@patrickhamilton8962 get this thing called an “add a fuse” from autozone to whatever your parts store is near you and put that in fuse 32 in your fuse box on the passenger side (google where fuse 32 is, you’ll find pics of it) then run a wire from that to the red power cable on the back of the head unit. That’s all I did and it’s been months now and it’s still working fine. Fuse 32 is power windows and mirrors which XLs don’t have but it still gets key on power

      Yeah, blend door actuator - beware, there are 3 or 4 of them, the one behind the 'radio' is a bitch to get out. I am in the process of doing this upgrade, and that part sucks. The radio documentation really is lacking, I had to watch a couple of videos to figure out a couple of points. Thankfully, I knew about a couple of the issues, as I had a JVC KWV330BT previously - loved it, but I wanted GPS, Android Auto and Apple Carplay in the dash.

      Either the fuse blew or the harness you got with it is bad. When I installed mine they missed tons of wires on my harness so I ordered a replacement harness and no issues since and it's been 1 year
