Requirements
REMOTE CD changer
Introduction
Many Ford owners with optional CD changers in trunk, hatch and even center
dash will be pleased to know the AUX-FRDW will allow them to connect a portable
audio device without having to disconnect the changer.
The AUX-FRDW
auxiliary input jack requires and retains the
External/remote CD
changer**
to provide a 3.5mm
(1/8”)
Audio jack to which the user can connect
and play all kinds of audio devices including Smartphones, MP3 players, iPod,
Zune etc. while retaining use of the CD changer. The AUX-FRDW connects to the
12-pin CD changer plug in Ford, Lincoln, Mercury, Nissan and Jaguar with
external/remotely mounted CD changers including vehicles with Navigation
Systems.
Remotely mounted CD changers are not referencing those within the
radio. (Radio may have a built-in Changer, but a remote CD changer is still
required for this cable to work)
Installation
This adapter connects to the
12-pin plug (See. Fig. 1) at the external Changer
location
(
not to Radio or RCU
) which means radio removal is not required.
