Re: Ultimate iPod adaptor and 10Min install
 

I have an 05 SUV and it has now happened about 5 or 6 times. What is weird is that the fuel gauge goes to empty when this happens and causes the low fuel light to flash. That is what gets my attention.

Hope Tech Support has good info.

I probably won't get to call them until Thursday.

Feel free if you want to give it a whirl:

Re: Ultimate iPod adaptor and 10Min install
 

Ok, here is my update. I contacted the dealer this morning and explained the ipod adapter install. They said the tech would check it out and see what could be found. They traced it down to an update for the power train control module. They reprogrammed the power train control module and believe this will solve the problem. I'm going to continue using the ipod adapter to see if I still get the flashing lights. I'll let you know what happens. If it does start again, I'm going to uninstall the nucleus and see if the lights flashing stops.

I have sent some emails back and forth with AI and they recommended I send my nucleus unit back for a replacement. They are going to investigate to see what they can find. I did tell them about my dealers response. I'm going to stay in touch with them as I continue to use the adapter to be sure we isolate the problem. AI did point out that noone should modify the nucleus unit as it is manufactured to have the proper ground in the harness.

I'll keep everyone posted on my findings. I'll have an hour drive back from the dealer tonight, so this should be a good test. My last 2 hour long trips have caused the lights to flash, so we'll see what happens.

I have been in touch with A.I. and they are looking into the problem. I?m going to drive out there next week and switch out my X2i for one out of a new batch to see if it helps. I don?t think that the problem is an update for the power train control module. A.I. has been installing these at there local H2 dealership on all year H2?s with no problems reported so far. And when I had my Ver.4 X2i I did not have this problem. I now have it with the newest Ver.5 X2i. I to have been asked to tell you guy not to mod the ground wire as this is not the fix. A.I. will be looking into a programming problem on there end as there could have been a bad batch sent out. As soon as A.I. has a fix you well all be taken care of. At this time this seems to be only an harmless intermittent problem. And should be fixed soon.

Is there any of us that don?t have this problem? What year H2?

And who is having this problem? What year H2? Problem observed?

Re: Ultimate iPod adaptor and 10Min install
 

I am veterinary student in Grenada, West Indies and I am getting a H2. However, I am idiot when it comes to cars and installing. For the Neucleus unit, when I purchase it from the website you listed (logjamelectronics) are there any other parts I will need? Also, I do not feel comfortable installing it myself although you made it look easy. Can I bring it to a Best Buy or Circuit City (or something like that) to have it installed? Also what else would I need to have have it installed in the center console or other location where it would be easily reached to bypass the slow scrolling speed? Where would you recommend installing it?

Re: Ultimate iPod adaptor and 10Min install
 

Hey guys just got one too and I would like to have all my movies on the Ipod to play on the rear DVD system is this a possibility and how do I do it? I already have RCA,s run for the x-box. please let me know!

Re: Ultimate iPod adaptor and 10Min install
 

Any update on whether this intermittent flashing dash light problem has been resolved? I want to get one of these adapters but the last thing I want is my wife to have a hissy fit when the dash lights goes bannannas on her.

Thanks

Re: Ultimate iPod adaptor and 10Min install
 

As of last Friday AI tech support told me they had an H2 in the bay and the engineers are working on it. I'm planning on checking back either tomorrow or next week to see if they have resolved the issue.

Re: Ultimate iPod adaptor and 10Min install
 

Thanks for the update. I really want this ipod adapter based on its feature set. Im hoping they clean up the bug quick. Its a weird bug nonetheless seeing that the device basically connects inline straight to the receiver.

Re: Ultimate iPod adaptor and 10Min install
 

I have been working with A.I. on the problem. The latest X2i I just install looks like it fixed the bugs so far no chimes or lights flashing. It looks like one of the traces on the newer board was not included which allowed a ground to float on one of the data channels. So the new unit that I?m testing has the fixed data trace and a better cap installed. I will keep you guys updated on the test. But so far so good, also I find no text errors as well. Hopefully there will be unit available for exchange and dealers soon.

Re: Ultimate iPod adaptor and 10Min install
 

Thanks for the update!!!

As soon as youre confient that it has been solved, then I will most definitrly be icking this litle unit up. Will the shop be seling the tixed ones or wiill they sell thru their drfective ones first.???

Re: Ultimate iPod adaptor and 10Min install
 

I'm sure that for us Hummer people A.I. well hook us up. The problem right now is only showing up on the H2's.

Re: Ultimate iPod adaptor and 10Min install
 

I'm eagerly awaiting the fix!

I'm tempted to buy it anyway, but being an early adopter of most overpriced gizmos I've turned into paperweights in the past, I'm really thinking I should just bide my time! :giggling:

I just saw the new Crutchfield catalog and looked at that new Harmon Kardon auto Ipod controller. WHAT THE HECK are they thinking to think they are going to be successful selling that dang thing for more than an Ipod even costs!! $400!!!! ?????

Re: Ultimate iPod adaptor and 10Min install
 

Well still working good so I think will know after this week end. A.I. said that there going to let there dealer know that for the H2 that they well need to order the part with the fix for the H2. I think that Logjammer.com will be the frist as most here got there X2i from them. Will all know more next week.

Re: Ultimate iPod adaptor and 10Min install
 

How did you hookit up to your rear dvd system?

Re: Ultimate iPod adaptor and 10Min install
 

Just recieved this email from AI tech support "it looks like we have fixed the issue. we have a gentleman who has had it for a week now and no problems. he was one of the original customer who had this issue. by Friday we will be announcing the recall for all customers with the gage issues" Obviously we know who has been testing this, thanks vlxjim.

Re: Ultimate iPod adaptor and 10Min install
 

I installed this unit with revision 5.03 on the back of the packaging:

Install was super easy using this post, relabelled the 6 preset XM keys using the post from LV H2 on page 3 and everything works flawlessly.

So far no problems and I am very happy with this interface...

My only complaint is the spartan user manual they supply with the unit. I took LV H2's advice (once again) and used the manual from http://peripheralelectronics.com/per...structions.pdf

This is well written and descibes how to use the unit much better.

I give it a :perfect10s:

Re: Ultimate iPod adaptor and 10Min install
 

Hello
Anyone using this on an 05 H2? I have Nav and XM, LUX

Re: Ultimate iPod adaptor and 10Min install
 

Sorry guys, Maybe a few more weeks. I did get a few lights and chimes but a lot better. So A.I. is going to look at a few more things. I should get the new one to test soon.

Re: Ultimate iPod adaptor and 10Min install
 

AARGH!!!! So close!! SOOOOO CLOSE!!!!!
