For those with PAC modules

[Monarkk]

Any one else have a problem programming theirs? According to the manual and the feedback im getting from the unit it self it should be working great however mine is not communicating with the head unit. Any one have a similar issue?

I had no issues. Which PAC are you referring to?

 

[GM Driver2]

What unit, and are you talking about steering wheel controls?

 

[Monarkk]

Yeah steering wheel controls, its a PAC SWI-JACK

 

[GM Driver2]

What screen are you running?

 

[Monarkk]

Kvt-514

Good luck. I have the same HU and it isn't user friendly.

Yeah I just got the KNA-g510 up and running, however the PAC module is the biggest thing I want installed.

I have that module on my dnx 8120 kenwood. it programs fine but after awhile some buttons become unresponsive or even incorrect (volume up results in track skipping forward). I think its a loose wire, just not sure which one. I wasnt the one that installed it and it looks like spaghetti behind the HU with so many wires. usually i end up removing the HU, reprogramming the PAC module and things work fine again.

I had some issues with my PAC on my bike. All I can tell you is get a hold of the customer service for them. They did an excelent job in helping me out. They had diagrams that the HD dealership didn't even have to help me out. They are even open late!

PAC service is always great help. Also a local audio shop is a good resource if its installed correctly then all you would have to pay them like $5-$10 and if it becomes unresponsive just go back they will reprogram it for free. I had mine put in because I had never programed one of those before my friend which is an installer took him about 2 minutes and it was done. He has the instructions memorized but he deals with those on daily basis.

I ended up figuring it out, the dial was set for a blauplaunk not my kenwood. Once I got that settled it was pretty straight forward! Man how I love having my controls back

 

[GM Driver2]

Nice! Easy fix

The headunits are very easy to use, the pac module can be a pain however. They have problems with reading Kenwoods as JVC's. You have to use I think a 12k resistor on the steering wheel control wire in the car. You might call their tech support to make sure on the resistor.

unfortunately that's how it sounds when you remove the stock radio... pretty annoying (like watching Jeopardy).
