V36 Tv

[ChrisB]

Anyone know where the AUX input is on the V36. There is a button but no sockets that I can find that are accessible anyway. Just wondered if there was such a thing as a DVB tuner that can run through the AUX.

Thanks

Hi Chris

There are Asuka Hawk Ranger DVB tuners available through me or CHOOK on this forum.

I have not seen inside the V36 but I would presume that the set up is similar to the V35 in that the AUX input is through the OEM tuner. The plug is not what you would normally look for but there is an adapter cable available that changes the input to RCA plugs to work with external tuners or other devices.

In the V35 the tuner is in the boot on the left side under the floor tray.

I am not sure where you are but if you are in Sydney I am happy to give you a hand to find it and see what it need to plug into the AUX input.

Cheers

its in the arm rest on those. there are a few ways to hack video into those cars - none of which are cheap.

Andy, Thanks for the offer, very kind of you. I'm in Melbourne so I'll have to pass. Chris suggests the tuner is in the arm rest, I'll go and have a look.

Chris,

In the arm rest is a 12 V socket and a multi pin connector. Do you know what type of connector this is and perhaps which pins are for AV?

Thanks

Yes the socket is in the arm rest or center glove box under the removable shelf. But what type of connector is required to get AV into this AUX?

Can we have some photos

Can we have some photos

One of the pictures shows the V36 Skyline AUX connector and the other is the American G37 AV input both found in the center arm rest. I assume there is a wiring harness to convert the mult pin socket to simple RCA video and audio. Anyone know where to get one?

Thanks

Weird mine came with the AV inputs, I thought the multi pin was for phone

What year and spec is yours? Perhaps there are some different options.

I connected my phone with the bluetooth.

Your whole armrest looks different.

See shot of mine from above.

Nice, Mine is the 5 speed auto type S. As yours is Manual that explains the diffenent center arm rest. You also have a hand brake there I guess and mine has a foot opperated hand brake. I wonder if those RCA plugs are specific to the P package.

Would have loved a manual but they are pretty rare and a few dollars more than the auto.

Enjoy

I've got an 08 manual coupe S and it has the weird plug in the centre console along with the 3xRCA plugs and cig lighter socket.

Can you get a iPod cable that connect to that Multi pin aux port?

[Alkatraz]

Short answer no. Long answer no you cannot, the funny fat plug with lots of connections if for some sort of car phone. The USDM models have an ipod plug instead of the phone plug, so we lucked out. Just use one of the many other options, Bluetooth stream music from your phone, fill the music box up with music (takes a while but quality is great), plug something into the RCA connectors or use the minidisk slot. So many options........Ipod is like sooooo 2005.

or use the minidisk slot.

Correction - CompactFlash slot.

[Alkatraz]

Correct. Thanks Max.
