iSimple PGHGM1 owner manual Installation

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 7mm 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 16-Pin harness and 14-Pin harness from the back of the radio. Disconnect the antenna from the radio.

4.When connecting the Satellite Radio tuner (SCC1 sold separartely), make the folllowing connections before connecting the PXAMG to the vehicle. Plug the black end of the 3 foot PXAMGSR (8-Pin mini-din to 8-Pin mini-din) into the second port (closest to the dipswitches) on the Media Gateway. Connect the gray end of this cable into the Satellite Radio tuner.

5.When connecting the auxiliary cable, plug the 8 pin mini-din into the port farthest from the dipswitches. Carefully run the auxiliary cable to the location where the auxiliary device will be stored. If you are using the RCA input it may be necessary to run the auxiliary device’s output cable to the PXAMG location.

6.Plug in the male connectors on the PGHGM1 harness into the 16-pin port and 14-pin port on the back of the radio. Next, connect the factory 16-pin and 14-pin harness into the female connectors on the PGHGM1 harness. Be sure to make a firm connection but do not force it. Plug the Black micro-fit 24-pin connector on the PGHGM1 harness into the PXAMG Media Gateway box.

8.To complete the installation secure the Media Gateway (PXAMG) and Satellite Radio tuner (SCC1) into the cavity in the dash behind the radio. Be sure that the cables and interface modules are not near moving parts or sharp metal edges as they may damage the cables. To prevent rattling noises inside the dash, use zip ties, tape, or other fasteners to mount the interfaces securely.

9.With all connections made, reconnect the vehicle’s battery, insert the key into the ignition, and turn the vehicle on. Check for proper operation of the Media Gateway and Satellite Radio tuner before reinstalling the factory dash panels.

10.Note: The first time you access the Gateway, your radio may display “DEV INIT” while the device is initializing. If this is displayed, please wait one minute then cycle the ignition off and on. Then access SAT mode again to begin normal Gateway operation.
