Installation

BEFORE YOU BEGIN:

Turn the ignition off.

1. 

Ensure the factory radio is turned off.

2. 

Installation

Gain access to the factory radio’s rear panel.

 The HONZNAUX1 

connects directly to the rear panel of the factory radio. Full or partial 

disassembly of the dash will be necessary. If you are unsure of this procedure, please consult 
a factory service manual or have the work performed by a mobile electronics specialist. Pay 
special attention to warnings or instructions regarding working near airbags, other safety 
devices, or security systems.

1

Connect the HONZNAUX1 harness to the factory radio. 

The 

HONZNAUX1 comes with two vehicle-specifi c harnesses. Carefully review 

both harness options on pages 4 and 5 and compare both harnesses with the connectors on 
your factory radio’s rear panel. Use the harness that matches your radio’s connectors. Plug 
the male connector of the appropriate HONZNAUX1 harness into the matching location on the 
factory radio’s rear panel.

Assemble the components shown on page 3 and connect them to 
the HONZNAUX1 module. 

Use the diagrams on pages 3-5 to assemble 

the components that will connect to and control your Zune device. 

Power connector wiring.

 Connect the black wire of the power connector shown on page 3

to a clean, bare-metal chassis ground. When in doubt, measure the resistance between 
potential grounding points and the vehicle battery using a multimeter. Choose a grounding 
point with equivalent resistance as other grounded components in the audio system. Connect 
the red wire to a +12V switched (ignition) power source. This wire requires a 12V, 1500mA 
inline fuse. MAKE CERTAIN THAT REPLACEMENT FUSES MATCH THESE SPECIFICATIONS.

RCA connections.

 The HONZNAUX1 module has two pairs of female RCA connectors labelled 

“INPUT A” and “INPUT B”. For simplicity, connect the male RCA audio cables (from the RCA 
component A/V output breakout shown on page 3) to the female RCA connectors labelled 
“INPUT A”; this connects your Zune device to “INPUT A”. You may optionally connect an 
additional low-level audio input source to “INPUT B”.
