Thank you Tim, my Delco cassette radio built in March 2003 doesn't have the 14 pin CD connector that everyone else uses to add an Aux input. Using your video I was able to cut into the FM circuit exactly as shown and can now enjoy listening to podcasts directly from my iPod without having to "play" a blank tape or CD. You are a gentleman and a scholar.

Thanks a lot, i did it to my radio and it’s working beautifully. I made a video using your method in my channel with better resolution so people can see the solder points better

It works I just did mine and it sounds good but it comes out Mono not Stereo also my FM sounds with lower Bass and low volume. Great video Tim.

I think for the Monsoon style AC/Delco head, there's some adapter called GM10AUX or some sort that plugs in the back. I'm considering this on my Grand Am. (Shame they tease us with the button, but don't provide this feature by default.) And I wouldn't hack up anything on front either, I'd run the wires down so the lead would come from the back of the storage cubby in the middle. Good spot to put the MP3 player and the connection is out of sight and out of the way when not in use.

I would suggest doing it this way and avoiding mono sound, also would be easier for a notice to complete. There is a thread on LS1tech called How you can add aux input mp3 player without adapter that shows close ups and is cut and dry.

Thanks! This worked great! However, it might be mentioned when using a five prong 3.5 mm jack it will be necessary to jumper between the two normally closed contacts. Otherwise, awesome!

Can you do a video for installing aux on 2003 Tahoe with 6 disc Bose with onstar?

Nice video lesson on aux. I counted the bottom connection spot from left to right 15 solder globs then 2 globs then the 1 single one is it. the top wire hooks to furthest left blob , of cross ways row of 7 I have a radio like this from a 1999 venture van. I got it home, from salvage yard ) think I paid $10) Tried it on my test bench. Lite up display for just a second and fuse blew between radio and my 12 volt power supply . Do you suggest looking for a bad capacitor in the power supply. My other radio similar hooks up at the bench & worked fine. So its not the bench wiring.

I would like to see a video on how to add an input to the Monsoon radio found in many GM vehicles. Specifically the ones with the AUX button found in the Pontiac Grand Am.

I have an Delco radio model 16161605 off an 1993 Chevy S10 it has no CD player no Tape player only radio. Can you show me how to add an AUX and USB port it will be helpful been looking for a long time and your videos are the easiest to follow. Thank You

I have a problem.. my CD player on the stock radio doesn’t engage and won’t let the signal from the Bluetooth modulator interrupt CD player music.. is the a bypass to trick the cd player to stay on??

didn't like the results. now my fm and am doesn't work and when the aux works thru my speakers it's after I switch to am for a second then switch to fm. I have done some older gm radios with aux and I have done them with 2k resistors and wired different and worked like a charm. what did I do wrong?

Hi. I bought a modded delco radio for my 2004 Astro, but despite it works, the sound is mono and lacks good tone. Seems not to go thru the preamp. I can adjust bass/treble, but the sound is not good. What do you think?

Can this be done on a 2006 model (Chevy Tahoe) , what would be the differences in the board. This video was very well made.

Tim, I want to mount the jack remotely. If I use two separate wires inside like you did and bring them to a panel mount RJ 11 at the back of the radio, then use a regular phone cable with the RJ 11 male on one end, cut the other end off to wire to the 3.5 jack, will I experience cross talk? Doing it this way gives me a nice clean small connection in case I have to pull the radio out for some reason. Also, it appears you are saying that it does indeed give you stereo audio quality and not mono correct? Thanks

do you have a picture of the board before you soldered the wires on. and if so can you circle where you solder the wires and everything else that you did? please and thank you

How i can add USB kit with Coure Car FM Player . Please elaborate with with step and soldering wire with highlight the points. Thank you , your videos are informative

Which channel do you wire? Since it's only a 2-wire modification (actually 3, because you're also running a ground wire), you must be loosing the stereo.

Nice video. Been watching a few videos about adding auxiliary inputs to car head units. Very interesting indeed. You wouldn't happen to know how to locate the preamp output signals in a FM modulator? I have a Kenwood 10 disc cd changer that I would like to add to a newer vehicle's factory head unit which is equipped with an auxiliary input. Problem is I do not want to utilize the FM modulated signal as the sound quality is terrible. I have the service manuals for both the cd changer and FM modulator, but I cannot figure out how to bypass the fm modulator. I would like to add 2 RCA connectors to the modulator, actually bypassing the fm modulation of the signal and have a nice clean full bandwidth signal to feed to my auxiliary input. Is this possible?

So does this overpower the FM signal when connected? I am trying to figure out how it automatically switches when plugged in

Any comments on how to ad a aux input to a GM 15216905 radio that's in my 05 GMC Canyon? It doesn't have XM so the plug is empty on the chassis. Thanks, Joe

Can you do this with a delco cdr 500?

I have a 97 Sierra with a radio that has an AUX button on the front ( it doesn't do anything) and has a separate stand alone DC player. Can I use this same procedure? Thanks

Hi, I think I've found the correct solder joints, I was wondering which ones represent the right and left side.. There any way you can please upload a clear picture of where the correct solder joints are? Thanks

There is three wire right and left and negative of aux where? i put these three wire on the board

I have a 96 Buick LeSabre Custom , it has a bad cassette deck , I would like to see proper hack to just remove the cassette portion, make a plate over the front opening, mount a toggle to switch between aux and the AM/FM , this seems reasonable I just dont know proper starting point for this, stealing cassette wiring to accomplish this? I have plenty of tools, even a decent scope, plenty of parts, but zero money right now. Your advice is welcomed. 73 de Seth - W8FG

How to do this on a 1995 Lincoln Continental jbl head unit with cassette and has a cd changer?

Hello Tim..this video looks like exactly the thing I need to do for my radio which is the same as yours here. I am going to mount the 3.5 jack externally on a different part of the dash. But I can't quite figure out the parts that are blocked by your finger or not shown clearly on the video. Can you help me? Thanks in advance!

I have 2003 Chevy Tahoe Z71 how can you do the Aux input... Please let me know

Great video. I don't want to destroy my radio. Do you do this for customers? Can I send my radio to you? How much would you charge?

Здравствуйте, обозначение проводов для разъемов delco 15071234 не сохранились ли у Вас? С уважением.

Hey Tim. I was thinking if you new how to install aux jack to a 06 sonata factory radio, with am/fm/cd palyer only no xm. can u interferer with the fm like you did in this video for the delco radio. thanks.

Can you show how to do it on a 2007 Chevrolet Silverado stock stereo with out the cassette player

hi tim great video but i am intersting if you could found way like the first video as stereo better

It'll be used in my 1986 Oldsmobile Cutlass supreme. I don't want the port on the faceplate..., if possible, could you do a tutorial on how to modify one of those type radios?

I have a Chevy lumina with an almost identical radio ...almost. I'm trying to find the pinout for the fm reciever. The radio's model number is 16232091 and the serial number is89bszfm310480304. The am/fm reciever has a bar code with the number 8086 us vert 7121 raa1w. @tim does your radio have the same reciever, if so I would like to know which pins are the left and right channel. Thanks.

Hello i have a Sony cdx-mp40 and want to do this job tanks Rolf Eriksson

I've watched both your vids on this. i have the exact same looking cd player from my 2000 Silverad/Sierra. it has the fan on the rear with bump under the antenna jack. but my board does not look like the one in this vid. So i cant tye into the same location. How do i find out schematics? model # 09375915 Delco

Why not just interrupt the signal that goes directly to the amplifier, so it doesn't matter if you have a CD in there or it's on the radio mode?

Has anybody done this and ended up with the FM section being WAY quieter than the AM when finished? I'm pretty sure I have the right connections because the aux jack works fine. I also ran a continuity test between the two points he used before I cut the trace and it had continuity. What's also weird is I can only hear the ipod when on FM. If I have chosen AM, I hear AM radio. This is regardless of whether the ipod is plugged in or not. This is driving me nuts

Can you do a close up of the connections an the ground on the 3.5 I don't want to screw it up when I do this

could you do it on the radio out of a 2005 Pontiac grand prix without xm or premium sound?

What kind of jack did you use?

Can i do the same procedure in a Delco Bose 16179646?

Hi I was wondering if you could do a 2004 to 2007 Pontiac Grand Prix audio input jack

any chance you could make a video with the delco model 15075614

I've got this unit in my '99 Lumina, though the PCB is laid out differently from yours. Is there a way I can determine where my FM points are located? I've tried looking for a schematic for my model number and have come up empty.

Alright, after setting everything up as instructed everything worked overall, however.. once running a test for the right and left audio channels I only have the Right Channel coming through on both speakers but no left channel.. is this how it suppose to work? Also, during the 1-2 seconds of silence between tracks the FM Radio station blasts through the speakers then it goes back to the music on your MP3/Phone/Music Player.. is this how its suppose to work? I'll Post a video of what I mean l8r

can you do a vid to show how to do this for a 2004 buick Rainer, (NO xm) regular 6cd changer/player

does this play through all the speakers or just one side of the vehicle? thanks for any help

Can you mod the older Delco radio from my 90 square body k5 blazer? I want either a usb or mic.

Now can you make a video about getting rid of all the g*ddamn ignition hum?

I would like to see how its done on a Nissan altima 02-05 radio model py020. Is there a way I can share pictures with you of my unit if you can't get your hands on that radio model ?

could you make tutorial for renault clio 2002 radio?i cannot find the pins for aux please help

im looking to do this to my 2006 stereo manufactured in 2005. Delco delphi no. 21002195. i know its possible can you make a video for that model please. ive looked everywhere and would like to try this myself. Thanks in advanced

Tim how much would you charge to put that on my 2004 pontiac azteck stock radio?

Tim, I left a message on your website contact form regarding positively identifying the terminals and traces. If you have a chance, please reply.

can you do this same radio but with a bluetooth?

thanks for video. I'm looking for internal diagram of 94/95 Delco 16179102 / 16166661

Thanks a lot man for this amazing video, but can you help me out by doing the 2003 Chevy radio single cd , cuz I don't have xm radio to take it from it. Thanks again man

will this work on a standard 2000 grand am radio and are they the same

Sorry but this is not the correct way of doing this, you are cutting audio from the FM decoder and the input its only one channel, Mono audio. everybody wants stereo, that is the reason you are only using 2 cables, I'm sure there is a better way to do this if you connect after the preamp for now there is a 9 pin plug on the back side of the radio and that works with the aux button no need to open the radio just purchase the correct cable with the interface and you can do this in 5 minutes search online for Chevrolet aux auxiliary input interface gm9-aux

can this be done to a 2003 chevy s10 factory radio with RDS?

Any chance you've done this for a dodge radio and could post a video?

do you know how unlock my stereo .says on the screen inop is a car malibu

I have factory GM delco cassette player that I want to do this for.

Why don't you just hook in to the wiring harness for the cassette player and not have to go into the radio

or at least tell me the color code for the wiring before the amp

Can you make a tutorial for CDR 500? Nice vid btw.

Rod Steward

What is the web site?

Can I pay you to my radio?

05 malibu radio

hay man i did what i was talking about have aux stereo input check me

I made a video clarifying the solder points with a higher quality camera for anyone looking to do this. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mcqga9FqmdO4ZmQ.html

your not showing anything, also 1channel??????

This crap just isn't worth it. Way to much work it's dumb. Just get a new deck. Not expensive can get one for $10. Plug, slide it in, good to go voila. This shit here just isn't worth it.

Don't Do an instructional video if you cannot reply to questions makes this video useless to most
