It is nice to see that we are now at a place where car stereo technology and the industry has truly taken a step forward. It's very exciting stuff and I look forward to iDatalink maturing as a platform
Just picked up the RR2 and I can say I feel a hell of a lot more comfortable understanding its functions and programming it. great Job!
They haven't released the firmware/software update via bluetooth yet, have they?
You are the Master and Commander of electronic car installation. I am truly amazed at your expertise and look forward for you to install my aftermarket radio.
Outstanding.
Thank you for all your help and knowledge in helping all of us.
I give tons of credit to iDatalink for a great product but also allowing DIYers to program their modules. This is very unlike the unstable junk that DEI puts out like the DBall2, and how they are greedy and stopped allowing consumers to program them even after we bought all the programming cables. Very scummy.
Holy hell. I learned alot from this video. THANK YOU.
" kids screaming, that would be bad" was the best line . compelled me to like and subscribe. enjoyed your video.
Dude, I wouldn't know anything about anything if it weren't for this channel and a few others. Thank you so much, dude!
have a 2013 camaro i'm installing the RR2 into because of those programmable outputs, i have a line lock and 2 step systems that are also going in at the same time and rather than muck up the dashboard with a "master" switch for each (wanting them independent) I'm using those programmable outputs to control a pair of relays, clean look!
Looks like I'm about ready for an upgrade...to this thing. I miss my Jetta steering wheel controls, and I need more sticky stuff all over my trunk ;-)
Im glad we have units like this to toss the Uconnect and likes of ford/gm preinstalled trash that comes in newer cars.
What if instead of muting the audio when in reverse I want the volume to be turned down just enough but not completely? Would this be possible with the RR2? Is it also possible to make the turn signal activate a side camera input and show it in the screen (like Honda change lane assist)?
Thank you!
Great videos, thank you. Helped me figure out my new setup. I got a Rr and an Alpine ILX-W650 for my Jeep and the Rr didn't ask for the serial number of the radio during the setup. Either it auto-detected it or didn't need it.
Wow... I hope Maestro is kicking you are few $$$ just talked me into getting the RR2.
So I’m thinking about using this so I can control some 4x4 lights on my truck, it seem like this would be a really slick way to do that. And control the climate.
Cannot wait to get a hold of one of these. I can finally replace that horrible MFT 8" factory unit for an Alpine.
Time to gut the Sony and MFT and start fresh.
Appreciate these videos
Can u post a video showing how to wire a non rr compatible radio and flashing procces
I'm having the Kenwood DMX1057xr installed soon. Crutchfield suggested the PAC so I bought one. I returned to the website and it's suggesting the iDatalink Maestro RR2 Interface Module. Do they work the same for my 2005 Chrysler 300c? I'm confused now. I want to keep all factory functions SWC etc. I'm running out of time. I need to have all the parts for the installer. Anyone know?
Do you have a video of the escort 360c install?
You can use a Windows VM with VMWare Fusion or Parallels Desktop. However if you are on a M1 Mac you are SOL since the iDatalink software is x86 and not ARM
I wire my relays different from you. the compass way that is pin 87 is north, N for new accessory, pin 30 east, E for earth (ground), pin 30 south, S for solid +12v, and pin 86 west for switch. makes it easy to remember where the wires go by keeping the horizontal pin at the top and the other pins will be vertical
That works, thanks for sharing
I was taught 85 and 86 don't matter. Ground one and acc the other. Power goes to 30 and powered goes to 87
@@FiveStarCarStereoInc your welcome
@@BuckCity229 very true 85 & 86 can have ground or switch live, but using the compass way just makes it easy to remember, its 5 pin relay that pin 30 & 86 are in a different location
Very Educational !!!!! Thank you Sir 👍🏻
Dean is the man! can i use the RR2 in my Hummer H2?
If already have the dnr1007xr in my gmc sierra do I still need to purchase the extra wires harness if my radio already works with my steering wheel buttons? I got a harness when I installed my radio and everthing works fine. I just want to be able to control my climate and be able to see my gouges. My factory buttons and chimes still work just fine
This video is very helpful. iDatalink is telling me that my car does not have a harness because it has navigation. They say they will eventually release a HK2 or HK3 harness to do this. It would seem though that I could connect the RR2 to my DMX906S manually by wire. Agree?
Good morning guys, i know it's a bit late but info is outdated, you said you have to be a dealer to get software.They actually provide it for free for general public now, thx
Now I can finally replace the radio in my 2010 sho
I just used a rr in my 11sel and a pioneer nex 7600 and it’s nice.
i wish i was near you...impossible to find installers like you. Will this work on my HUMMER H2 2003? Or any hummers?
Sooooo niceee !! I decide to do it myself I thought it was super complex than that using some VCM tool o wherever thank you.
I have aquestion I see forscan software in your laptop can you do some tutorials like flashing the cluster.
Thanks again.
Is it possible configure Maestro RR ona a different car out of the compatible list?
In other words, Can I configure Maestro as an universal steering well?
Great stuff! I truly love your tutorials. I'm interested in the iDataLinks products for my car. I own a 2018 Ford mustang GT with the 9 speaker (no sub) stereo system. I want to replace the factory stereo with a Kenwood radio. What iDataLink products do you recommend? I want to retain as much functionality as possible.
Where you buy rr2
What is the purpose of the CAN BUS with these Maestro units? If one was to purchase an RR or RR2 would the extra $100 difference be worth it for the additional BUS?
Purchasing a iData K150 kit with a Pioneer AVIC-NEX8000 but am unsure as to which Maestro unit to get (RR or RR2)
Ι drive a Nissan XTrail (Rogue) Japanese specs. Maestro company told me they are not selling it to me because they are not sure if the unit fit my car model. Watching your video I noticed that the unit can connect as a stand alone. Is this possible with my car? Thanks
Have you had any of the Maestro rr2 cause issues with power side steps that use the door latch grounds to activate?
Where/when can I buy an RR2? My online searching has not proved successful!
Cool, thinking outloud, this can enable us to make our car sort of smart!
I'm thinking of buying that product, but what other product can I use for the harness, I got a Genesis Coupe 2013 with Infinity amp.
Does it retain brake services and hill assists for jeep cherokee 2015 with any car audio with an idatalink port?. Thank you
I have the RR v1. Not enough features on the RR v2 to pay for the upgrade.
Awesome video as always Dean!
Hi is there anyway to install this idatalink maestro module in Honda Accord 7(2003-2007) dual zone AC to retain the climate control info in Alpine or Poineer head unit. Any electrical modification in writing is possible as myself is electrical engineer
this is dope. I currently have the rr in my mustang. Can you provide a video of the radar operation interface. I have the max 360c would love to see how this works before upgrading
Does it retain xm radio like the PAC interface?
So if it retains the backup sensor in the maestro unit, does that mean head units with a separate backup or parking break wire do not need to be wired or are they still required to be hard wired to the appropriate points in the car's wiring system?
First, I say thank you for the very informative video! I do have a question tho! The Maestro RR/R2 will be connected to my OBD port. I sometimes use that port tune to my truck with a Diablo tuner, if I remove the connection from the RR or RR2, will I have to reflash or will it cause any issues with the pre-existing programming of the RR/RR2 once the services are reconnected?
what are the other three wires on the Configurable Output Harness? I don't see this harness anywhere in the instructions... Obviously white/red is output 1, white/blue is output 2, and white green is output 3..... BUT what are brown/white, blue/red, and blue/yellow for? THANKS for any help!
Keep rockin' the info boys! Educate the masses on the best new tech available! BTW, whats happening with that Zapco DSP you guys got.....give away?? Hint hint. Just sayin..... I would drive from Victoria BC Canada for you guys to redo my 2016 F-150 featuring that beauty.....But dear god the fuel to get there! Cost me a fortune!
Hi, Do you offer consultation services for Idatalink?
Can you use an idatalink dash kit without having an idatalink compatible stereo? I really like the way the dash looks but the stereo I want isn't idatalink compatible.
Can you set up a maestro rr from a tablet?
Do these work on Mercedes Sprinter vans?
Hello guys love your work I have a question I have a 2017 Lincoln MKZ with the Sync Radio I was trying to see if you know any company like Maestro that makes install kits for my car and do Maestro makes wiring harnesses for my car
Thanks for all the info. I don't think I would need or use the MPO function. I'm still able to program my steering wheel bottons (press and long press) with the RR, correct? If so I'll save the 50 bucks and stick with the RR instead of the RR2.
Will it flash a Ram Promaster 2019? 😢
So much going on..! 🤯🤯🤯
these units are great but !! what if you are updating an older vheicle like a 2001 mercedes s430 that a similar buss system does myestro make a device that can control older cars ?
hello I have a master rr in a 2011 tahoe truck and out of nowhere the screen turned off and it no longer turns on is there any way to turn on the master rr since the fuses of the stereo and the master rr do they work?
Hreat stuff thans for sharing.
Any suggestions on what kind of radio i can upgrade to in an 2003 infiniti FX45 same as FX35 just bigger engine on FX45
I have this organge screen "No Nav" Color screen and all yhr controls are done via the radio and the Ugly Orange screen shows what your controlling.
I would love to Upgrade my radio on my Infinti FX45 anyone here ever upgraded an infinti with the orange screen?
13:35 I believe you mean low wattage/amperage, these outputs are 12v right? Oh, they're ground. Thanks for always putting out excellent content.
You could have created that circuit off the reverse wire for the reverse lights right?
There is no data maestro for my 2014 lexus rx 350. i want to take out the factory oem screen, and replace it with a kenwood excelon double din headunit. I only want to retain the climate control features, as i would be using a aftermarket amp for my aftermarket speakers. What options do i got?.
Is this compatible with a 2010 Honda accord?
Is there a website that says what vehicles will work with this? The newest vehicle in our home is a 06 outback.
I really want this for the back up camera I want my camera to work with the wheel not just motion. Idk just can’t find anyone in my area nor do I think it’s smart to pay so much
Can i use a idatalink maestro rr instead of a rr2 to connect my pioneer dmh7600nex unit to my escort redline 360c radar? Or does the escort redline360c needs the idatalink maestro rr2 to connect to the pioneer unit? thanks looks forward to response.
My steering wheel in my camaro doesn't have radio control buttons on the right side. If i was to add them, would this allow the controls to work without having to get the BCM reflashed at the dealer?
thanks for this vid. do you have any info on the RR and connecting to the OBD2 port ? are OBD2 port splitters ok to run? i would like to connect the RR module and also the COBB AP to my OBD2 port and also have the OBD2 port available for a 3rd plug if the dealer or my tuner needs to access it without unplugging the splitter. thanks !
I've got a GMRS that I'm going to install with my RR2. One of the things I was thinking about developing (but might not need to now) is a device that allows the audio from the GMRS to be overlayed onto the entertainment audio. Ideally, it would slightly fade the entertainment audio in preference of the GMRS (communications) audio. Do you think that's doable with the RR2?
Neither work with 2018 F150 with 360 camera & B&O sound?
Hey guys were are you located, I'm at Florida as well, maybe you aren't too far away for me and I can let you do the instal for because my lasted radio not even had bluetooth lol so I I don't understand a bit of what you're talking about, so much cables for me 😆🤦♂️
Where did you find the compatible list for radar, cause the 360c isn't listed. It's the 360ci thats listed. Unless they added to the list.
So I'm assuming I need to rr2 for my 2018 dodge challenger but if I want air controls I need someone to install software?
wow, mind boggeling..,
In your experience, which Maestro & related components are compatible with a C5 Corvette?
I have a Pioneer 4200nex and waiting to receive my Idatalink Maestro RR. If my car comes with factory Navigation will it work on the Pioneer 4200nex or would I need a Pioneer Avic U260/U280 to have Navigation without using Android Auto?
Any word on when Bluetooth functionality will be available for the RR2? I'd love to modify my setup without going back and forth to my computer.
I believe summer
@@FiveStarCarStereoInc Awesome! Thank you for the quick reply. 👍
How is the 3 MPOs differ from what you can do on an OBDeleven using long coding or one of its apps? Is it essentially the same thing, or are these MPOs vastly more customizable and gains access to more than what an OBDeleven can access through OBD2 port?
Hey man, any reason my head unit ( Kenwood DMX-1057XR) will randomly reboot (once in a while) w/ the obd2 connector connected. 2009 Tundra. When I unplug the obd2 connector, I dont have that problem. Using Rr w/ T01 Harness, NOT Rr2. I used the same module w/ my Alpine halo 9 f309, and the unit will reboot (randomly) as well. Any help will be appreciated.
can I use those MPOs for pre programmed climate settings?
Do both the rr and rr2 retain the factory Bluetooth setting from my 2014 my link radio on my camaro? Or just the rr 2
Can you use the maestro rr and the Rockford fosgate dsr1 at the same time. Because I wanting to use really nice and fancy kenwood excelon dnr radio and aftermarket amps and speakers.
Do you have a video explaining each socket function on th RR? After my install on a Toyota Sienna, there are two or three unused sockets. I would like to know each sockets function by color.
So this is compatible to the pioneer 8500ex? Im using it on my 2012 silverado
Do I need to buy a ads usb?
great information onthat rr2
Want this for a 2001 Mustang along with excelon hu... think it will work?
I am planning to buy an Alpine ILX-F309 that uses Maestro and getting a dash kit from Metra. Is it better to buy a dash kit from Maestro to be able to use Maestro to its full capabilities? Thanks in advance!
I installed this into my 2016 Cruze, but the climate controls don’t work by touch. They only change on the head unit when I adjust the stock climate controls. Is that normal?
Well explained 👍👍
I wonder if theyll make it available for 00-06 tahoes/Silverados. Would be nice to get things more up to date. Love my escort redline and like the idea of a remote display to the screen.
No. The vehicle isn't capable of it.
The new switchable outputs, can it be programmed that the head unit can perform an output? (Ie Kenwood HU has a soft key that could send a signal to the new harness?)
Will maestro work and be bypassed if reset and not reflashed if attached to harness?
Wait... Is that a Mandalorian crest on your headrest? I was almost sure that I've also seen it somewhere in the background inside the shop before, but unless I am mistaken that is definitely the same symbol in your car. Crazy coincidence, I have the same sticker on the back of mine...
Oh, and good info on the maestro also.
Yes it is. They are all over the bay.
08 Silverado 1500 LT1. Pioneer avh-2330nex. What else do i need to achieve this level of badassery?
I know I'm late but WHAT IN THE WORLD IN THE NORMAL/HOLD BUTTON FOR ON THE GAUGES?!?! I CAN'T FIND ANYTHING
Is this a good solution for a pesky 9th gen accord (2014 Accord EX) since the menu has an option for a secondary vehicle display? I want CarPlay but my radio and iMid interactive capabilities make it less easy than I thought it would be. Any help is appreciated.
I am just trying to purchase what i need to for a radar detector to be connected to my kenwood stereo but am having issues finding what i need can u help
If you need to update the firmware before they add the bluetooth functionality, would you have to open up the dash again? Only thing making me want to hold off on this since it's been so long without that update :(
I have a question will these be able to integrate again my lane change camera when my right turn signal is activate on my 2014 civic ex I have a w8500nex radio.
can the idatalink maestro RR2 work with brazilian taramps?
