As a new EX35 owner I think that it is great that there is this type of exchange!!!!

And especially to Zozo for helping a brother out!

Love to get my hands on the email to allow me to have my passengers watch the iPod on the road.

I was attempting to perform the e-brake and vehicle speed sensor override on my 2007 G35x, and I had a few concerns. I can't shift the car into drive w/o starting it, as opposed to putting it into drive with just the accessory power on and e-brake engaged. So, when I do turn the engine on and put it into drive and then turn the engine off, an alarm sounds. Is there another way to perform this step without sounding the alarm? Or am I just a moron and doing this wrong - be honest.

And just for the sake of clarity, ground both the e-brake and VSS pins that feed the plug? Then insulate (wire nut or electrical tape) the exposed wires coming from the chassis?

Thanks!voltron22

You need to press the "Start" button twice without pressing the brake pedal, to put the car into "On" position without starting it. Then put the e-brake on, and you can safely shift it to "Drive". Now, press the "Start" button again, to turn the car "Off".

If you have downloaded the files, read the text and you'll see several places where it refers to how vehicles with Nav differ.

HTH,David

TY David, this is very easy process comparing to other mods i have done with my other cars.simple question, would this mod allow me watch videos while vehicle is moving? or will it only allow me to use NAV grayed out buttons(along with the bth keypad options and more) when the car is moving? since I am only interested in playing my ipod's slide show when im driving.

Thanks in Advance David, TY for opening eyes of the EX noobs

Welcome, bedn0009!

No more emails - look instead at the "STUCK" threads on the front page of the forum.

Hey zozo... I've got an '07 G35x, no nav. If your 'bypass' instructions apply, would you mind emailing to me (mrenaud<at>karetech<dot>com)? Thanks!

So I haven't actually tried this mod, But...

I have an EX 35 with Nav+Tech.

I went to a garage and asked them if they could make my car think its not moving at all times. They told me the car has a giroscope that it uses to know when the car is in motion. They make parts that are connected in between the giro and the car's "brain" to fool it. They said they have parts for other cars, but one hasn't been fully developed for the new EX yet. Not sure if they are 100% correct or not. The giro thing makes sense, but the question if anyone else can do it for me, I plan to keep looking.

Also just FYI, they told me the part is about $75 and then labor shouldn't be more than an hour. So, at least in my eyes, I would rather just pay someone to do it.

(completely not relevant, but they just had so many Christmas Icons I felt like I had to use one)

Hey Gesemail,

One of the wires being "modified" is the Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) line which sends a pulsed signal as an indicator of vehicle speed. Just download the PDFs and have a look.

Cheers,David

If anyone picks this up. Is it possible to send me the link to accomplish this? I know there are several people out there that have it done. I just want to use the component inputs in the arm console.

It shouldn't effect your warranty, but when I did this mod on my Armada, I completed this mod using the relays, therefore there is an off (stock) position on the switch, and an on (mod) position. This way by the flip of a switch the vehicle can retain the factory wiring and position. I did a similar mod to my '04 QX56 and I never had any warranty issues.
