5. Installation

1.When making electrical connections it is always recommended that the vehicle’s battery be disconnected from the electrical system before performing the installation.

2.Carefully remove the trim panels covering the bolts that secure the radio into the dash cavity. Remove these bolts, and carefully pull the radio from the dash of the vehicle. This will provide access to the factory radio connectors where you will connect the Media Gateway harness.

3.Disconnect the factory harness from the back of the radio. Disconnect the antenna adaptor from the radio.

4.Connect the 8-Pin iPod docking cable into the first port on the Media Gateway furthest away from dipswitches. Carefully run the 11 foot iPod cable behind the dash to the location where the iPod will be mounted or stored (for example; the glove box or center console). This location will vary based on the vehicle, and customer’s preference. When running this cable through the dash, be sure to secure it away from moving parts or sharp metal edges that may damage the cable.

5.If connecting the HD Radio tuner (HDRT sold separately) Plug the 3 foot HD Radio Cable (8-Pin to 8-Pin) into the second port (closest to the dipswitches) on the Media Gateway. Connect the other end of this cable into the HD Radio tuner. Connect the factory antenna cable into the antenna connection on the HD Radio tuner (HDRT).

6.Plug the male connectors on the PGHHY1 harness into the ports on the back of the radio. Next, connect the factory harnesses into the female connectors on the PGHHY1 harness. Be sure to make a firm connection but do not force it. Plug the black micro-fit

24-pin connector on the PGHHY1 harness into the PXAMG Media Gateway box.
