Anyone have the pinouts for the iPod console cable? Have the iPod socked and trying to splice it into the harness.. Or, if anyone could tell me which pin connects to which on the two ends of the cable?
ie, pin1 on socket end connects to pin 2 on harness end, etc. There are 13 wires. |

Thanks Navy.. I've already had the wiring diagram coming off of the headunit. I was actually looking for the pinouts for the console cable, in an attempt to splice my own console cable onto the harness, as my cable came off of a 08 tC, therefore the connector opposite to the iPod socket didn't match my 06 harness plug.
I ended up giving up and purchased the console cable from Toyota today for $100. Big price to pay for a cable, especially since I've had to butcher it and splice it onto the harness still, because I had cut off the harness connecter in a previous attempt to make my own console cable. Long story short, while going through the pains of splicing in the shielded wires, it suddenly made sense why these cables are so expensive. I've always assumed that "shielded" meant that the rx/tx wires are just better insulated. In reality, there's a wire mesh on top of the wire jacket, which is then insulated again, the mesh being grounded by a third wire going back to the harness (so major pain to splice). Bottom line is that my iPod is kicking butt now, sound quality is awesome, lot better than throuh the AUX. Navigating through the headunit is a bit clumsy, but I'll give it some time. |
