modulo Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 hi everyone. I own a 2008 Edge SEL AWD with 51 000 km or 32 000 miles on it. I change the original radio for a JVC KW-ADV60BT DVD/CD/USB. my question is: is it possible to connect the backup aid assistance to the car radio like the original?? the dealer told me that with the original radio, when you put the truck in reverse,the sound of the radio is lowering letting you hear the beeping sound as you backing up. i would like to have the same with my radio if it's possible. now if i wanna hear the beep, i have to lower the radio myself Thank you Pascal thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 Doubtful. I believe that's all integrated into the control modules and not something you can just wire into. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modulo Posted January 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 (edited) the guy at the dealership told me that the system must be hookup to the radio and when you're backing up it should lower the volume of the radio and the beeping should be loud as i'm backing up. any clue?? maybe the guy is a bullshiter??

Dingo Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 Find out if the radio has a mute wire (usually light blue.) We if so, hook it to the wire that carries power to the back-up light. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
