Hi All
I have a 2014 GXL Prado and the head unit died - same issue as here - https://www.pradopoint.com.au/forum/...dio-nav-system
I confirmed it was stuffed with the Toyota dealer and all they can do is replace with new for about $1600.
A friend has a 2016 GXL Prado and upgraded his head unit so I got a hold of his to replace mine.To be specific, mine is a February 2014 model, his is a September 2016 model Fujitsu.
When I plugged it in, all the cables fit and it boots up fine however the volume knob does not work (on the head unit or through the steering wheel) and only the left speakers work. When going into the sound area to center the speakers, it is full left and everything is disabled - I can't change it. That said, everything else works. Radio seek (from unit and steering wheel), reverse camera, on/off using the volume controller (that doesn't work for volume), Sat Nav - the works.
I isolated the speaker and power plugs and they are identical. We have tried everything to make it work, even swapping the volume controller unit PCB (from mine to my friends) but it does not work.
I was wondering if anyone had seen this issue. Either there is something wrong with the 2016 head unit, it is not compatible or I am missing something. Any ideas?
Thanks
