I posted this in general chat, but then thought it may be better in the forum. I have an Android head unit but it seems that all the features do not work properly, mainly to do with reading the canbus, so I removed the unit to check the wiring and I have one connection spare coming from the head unit. This is not really surprising as I have never found a car yet that has the same connections, so it may just be a common adaptor, but I have three wires in the car that I have no idea wh

Hi all. Can anyone help me with a replacement head unit for my Toyota alphard ANH20W 2008/9 2.4. having a lot of conflicting info regarding plug n play. There seems to be a lot of differences between the cabling and ports on the rear of my original sterio. Any help would be greatly appreciated. As you can see I've added pictures of the back and front of the head unit which may help.inn24🐉😎

🛍️ Found exactly what I needed on Alibaba — check out this product! 👉 https://www.alibaba.com/x/1lAhnV8

The Alibaba unit has two options. An external jog/shuttle controller for the add-on unit. A small touchscreen splitter cable, that lets you switch your physical screen touch inputs between the original headunit functions and the add-on unit. You open up the screen on the headunit, easier than it sounds; you 'eject ' the front screen, as if inserting a cd or dvd, then disconnect everything and remove headunit. You can then remove a few screws and get the screen out and open it up. You then unplug the touchscreen cable and insert a small PCB between the cable and original socket. This lets you run a thin cable out of the screen that allows you to switch the touchscreen between original unit and the add-on box. The wiring loom is essentially plug and play after that, if you talk to the support team they will make sure to provide a matching loom for your specific headunit. Yes, this unit essentially means your original headunit will function just as it did out of the factory, and uses the 'Aux/VTR' function to display content from the add-on unit. Once set up, android auto automatically carries out the handshake protocols and wakes up the connection. From when I start car, it takes less than 10 seconds for android auto to appear on my headunit, all connected.

In this picture: Top-Left is for the brake fluid Bottom-Left is for the engine oil Bottom-Middle is for the engine oil dipstick Bottom-Right is for the washer fluid Middle-Right is for the engine coolant with a caution about steam (I expect) Top-Right is for the engine coolant expansion tank, with the min and max marks on it, probably for when the engine is cold, but check the manual for that. Hopefully someone can confirm.

I have not looked at the manual yet but my first choice would be the black arrow, 2nd the red arrow. The red arrow one has 'Engine Coolant' which is a bit of a giveaway and the black one looks to be the expansion tank and should have max and min markings on. I hope this helps.

Hello, Can anybody please confirm if the cooling system for a 2006 2.4 ltr petrol engine is a closed / sealed system. If not where do you put the water / coolant in. Many thanks. Chris
