. When installing the Media Gateway in 

select 2009-2010 Ford vehicles that are 

equipped with SYNC and have an internal 

Satellite tuner** dipswitch 3 needs to be ON 

(down) prior to installation.

** If there is a yellow Satellite Radio antenna plugged into the 
radio then the satellite tuner is internal. If you are installing the 
Media Gateway into a 2009 vehicle that has an external Satellite 

tuner, please use the configuration for 2005-2008 Ford vehicles.

5. Installation

IMPORTANT NOTE 

If you are installing the Media Gateway into any of the following  vehicles the PGHFD1A 
harness is also required:

2008-2010 Ford Escape Non-Navigation

2009-2010 Ford F-150 Non Navigation

2009 Ford Flex Non-Navigation

2008-2010 Ford Focus
2008-2010 Mercury Mariner Non-Navigation

2009 Lincoln MKS Non-Navigation

2010 Ford Fusion Non-Navigation
2010 Ford Mustang Non-Navigation

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 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 24-Pin and 16-Pin harnesses from the back of the radio. 
Disconnect the antenna from the radio.
 

4. Connect the 8-Pin iPod docking cable into the first port on the Media Gateway 

(farthest away from dipswitches). Carefully run the 11 foot iPod cable behind the dash 
to the location where the iPod will be mounted or stored (for example the glove box 
or center console). This location will vary based on the vehicle, and the customer’s 
preference. When running this cable through the dash be sure to secure it away from 
moving parts or sharp metal edges that may damage the cable.
