Hi all,
I'm wanting to replace the stock stereo in my 2001 A4 with myTouch screen DVD player, can anyone tell me the colour coding of the wiring & also is it possible to connect my iphone to it so I can control through the touch screen.

Thanks for any help

Radio would have to have iphone support.

Theres either a wiring diagram on the top of your old radio or the internet can helps. Use a wiring adaptor

Amazon.com: Stereo Wire Harness Audi A4 A8 96 97 98 99 (car radio wiring installation parts): Electronics

Easier to do RNS-E upgrade but more expensive.

 

Hi,
Thanks for reply,
I have the adapter but it's the colour coding from the car I need help with, I know the earth (brown) wire but not sure about where the battery & memory wires go.
I think I'll just get a iphone to RCA CABLE & forget the touch screen lol.

Cheers

 

well what model touch dvd do you have?

If you have the adaptor it color matches to the aftermarket harness that came with the touch dvd. then just plugs into the car. dont have to tap anything

 

Can I put it a different way, can anyone please tell me what each wire does (except speakers) coming from the car?

Cheers

thats your radio just match them you only need power ground acc and illum if your speakers are amped

 

Hi,
This is doing my head in LOL,
I've got the ground & got the battery wires from the car but when I connect the ACC wire from the stereo the unit stays powered on constantly even when the keys are removed.
Can anyone please tell me if there is a solution to fix this.

Many thanks for any help.

OK, finnally got it susssed, the problem was that the origional leads did'nt have a wire to go to the ignition so i just took a wire from the fuse box.
Can anyone tell me what this yellow plug & cable from the car to the stereo is?



Thanks
Colin

 

that is a ant plug you do not need it just tape it up it is only used on audi head units. hope this helps you.
