kenwood

Hey forum, T6 2019 kombi...looking for advice, decided to upgrade the factory fitted system to either the Kenwood dnx518vdabs or the dnx8020dabs. I’m not a guru at all with regards to car systems but need something with steering controls, android auto, reversing camera which I know both have go...

Well lesson learned and now need some advice. I just bought a Kenwood DMX5020 / connects T6 fitting kit and reversing camera locally, originally bought for a T6 install and then he crashed it. Half of the shop price so hard to say no, was advertised as having everything in original boxes with...

Plugged my Kenwood DNX-516dabs headunit back in after sending the loom to Jason at Absolute5 to run a Kenwood amp and im getting a security code message........anyone got any ideas ? I've checked all the books i had with the van and nothing written down.

Afternoon everyone. I have a T6 highline and VW upgraded my stereo to the Kenwood head unit. Ever since this has been in I have not been able to use the USB and audio input jack. Is this able to be used together and maybe they forgot to connect it? I'm interested to know what you reckon as I...

Given the recent high praise of some of the other Kenwood headunits (DNX9180 & DNX8180) from the very knowledgeable @Absolut5 , i find myself considering the Kenwood DNX518VDABS to replace the factory headunit. Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles • DNX518VDABS Features • Kenwood UK Does anyone have...

I have the Kenwood Dmx-7017dabs And just bought the steering controls quad lock and interface all original Kenwood parts their part numbers numbers CAW-KIMUN1 and CAW-CKIMVW3 I have connected them all up but I have no function of the steering controls, parking sensor display or MFD...

I thought I would do a little post about fitting my new head unit, replacing a broken discover media system. It's fairly new to the market and not seen one in a T6 yet, so thought people may be interested. All of the bits were supplied by the fantastic guys at @Absolut5 and I fitted it myself...

Ok so it’s what it is with box all cables fittings etc and instruction manual in the best condition only thing is the glue pads that attached it to my screen may need replacing but they look good and feel very sticky so may just be fine . Really prefer selling stuff to people that can come and...

Do not buy this kit... It don't fit

I have a Kenwood DNX516DABS coming from a member on here. I need to source some cables but I cannot seem to find exact part numbers for kenwood to vw t6. It comes with the standard Kenwood wiring so what do I need to get it to plug into the van? I have a 3 button basic dab stereo at the moment...

So I've just attempted to update my Kenwood DNX9190 firmware. I have done this successfully previously when I first installed the unit. This time the update starts as expected but then tells me the USB connection has been lost and to re-insert the USB. I pull the USB out and re-insert. Now...

Just replaced my Kenwood DNX516DABS in my van, so it's for sale. Comes with SatNav aerial and cable to connect 2 USB's but no other leads as I reused them. Couple of scratches on the screen - £50 - collection from Derby Cheers!

Just plugged my phone into the dash usb socket to charge it and it’s not working. The van has a Kenwood DNX516 stereo with 2 USB leads in the glovebox, so I assume that the dash usb doesn’t work due to the aftermarket unit? Will something like this reinstate it? Thanks

Just listed a Kenwood DNX518VDABS head unit: http://ebay.us/2FqWyz?cmpnId=5338273189 Would rather sell directly to a T6 Forum member, so I'm happy to cover the shipping cost for this item. Will be sent insured of course. VW T6 7" AV Navigation System with DAB+ Smartphone Control & Bluetooth -...

Hi, I cannot get the sound on the sat nav, it was fine before and in set up menu it’s on. Can anyone help?

Hi just a warning to anyone considering buying one of these.. mines been in for "repair" due to dust contaminating under the touch screen.. its been cleaned (in the process they have damaged the paint on the tiny screws holding it together. and sent it back with still a few particles of dust...

I currently have a Pioneer AVIC F980DAB. Satnav has to be the slowest starting sat nav I've ever experienced and sound quality is just OK, nothing more. (I have upgraded speakers and an amplifier). I'm going to install Absolut5's 'Signature' set up but am considering upgrading the headunit to...

Reading the various threads about wiring reversing cameras I am feeling the consensus is that a relay is needed to supply a clean 12volt feed to the camera. Could I ask the experts: where is the best and simplest place to pick up a live feed either in the cab area, would be great it there was a...

Anybody know how to put the VW logo on the above headunit or any sign/pic that is?? thanks

Recently acquired a T6 with a Kenwood media centre incorporating a reversing camera. Am I being slow or is it not possible to turn the media centre off (perhaps because of the reversing camera) ?
