I just received a Sony from Crutchfield and going to install in my 2007 Explorer , thank you bro from an old boy from South Carolina , your video is just what I needed .

Thank You for the in-depth video, I'm going to attempt to fix the radio in a Family members Ford once he has All the required adapters to install a new radio. I really appreciate you pointing out the airbag light and the head's up on leaving it plugged in!! Thanks Again and hope you have a Great Day!!

I need to do this same thing on my 2007 Explorer. Thanks for the video. It was just what I needed!

I watched your video earlier today and then went out and changed my radio .. I had ordered an OEM from eBay .. thanks this helped me a lot .. took me all of 30 minutes

Awesome video. Worked exactly as described and fixed my radio's problem. Thank you for making this video.

Thanks for the video and the tips. Been looking to do this for my 06 Explorer. Great job.

Have same issue with my radio..... Thanks for the video.... you saved me a bunch of time!!

Thank you your video helped me replace my stereo in my 2007 Ford Explorer sport Trac I would’ve never been able to figure it out!

Thanks for the video! I used it to remove and install my radio but then fixed the old one using tips from a different video (resolder some points powering the screen).

Thanks for the video. I ordered a new radio, today, for a different reason (The volume wheel was being turned down and the volume would go up). Also ordered a USB/Line-In in place of the old Line-In that had awfully low volume through it, hopefully it fits. Remember, you should disconnect the battery to prevent the possibility of a short circuit. This will also prevent the airbag from accidentally triggering if the airbag light plug somehow pops off when removing the front bezel. You can still turn the key to engage the shifter out of the way, even without power.

Thank you! I needed a video on how to remove the blasted center cluster panel in my 2007 to change the heater control panel, and all the other videos had the wrong style of center cluster panel. I guess they used a 2006 model in mine! Anyways, thanks! Heck, I may just go ahead and change out the radio while I'm in there! 😁💜

Excellent video sir very helpful

That extra plug may be for the steering wheel controls. When I looked it up on Crutchfield's site, it assured me that those functions would work with their harness, on my 2010.

Great video. Thanks

Great video

Thank you sir

I thought you said throw your screws up in the tree…. Somewhere up outta the way. I was just listening as I work and had to think about that one. Tray… throw the screws in the tray.. got it.👍🏼

Hello mr , good evening , i have an issue with that old stereo when i push the phone button it doesnt do anything , no menu or setup , i already checked the fuse box but everything was allright , thx 4 helping me

Thanks for this video! Exactly what I was looking for! Did you ever find out what the other connector was for coming out of the stock radio unit?

I have a pioneer MVH300EX and 2008 Explorer Eddie Bauer. Came stock with sync and the 6 disk mp3 player. Is there a way to connect my Pioneer to the original microphone in the rear view mirror? I'm not at all afraid to cut and splice if needed. Thanks.

I have a 2006 Mercury mountaineer that looks perfect for mine where'd you get the kit and do you have to tell them to make you the harness for the wiring for the simple plug and Play

If the air bag light comes on try disconnecting the battery for a couple minutes and reconnect and see if the light stays off,. Might reset the computer for you to keep it off since it's not a faulty equipment issue

That plug that you left unplugged is that the plug that’s for the buttons in the steering wheel and do the steering wheel buttons still work?

Have you noticed any issues with crackling, popping, etc? I installed a new radio a while back and I noticed every once in a while the sound pops for a split second. Not very loud or scary, but still noticeable. I don't know if there's a short in the wiring or a short in the unit...

If you don’t mind me asking what type of adapter cables you get for it and could you link them for me I just got a stereo just need the specific adapter cable for it

If you would ever consider doing a video installing a center console, I would really watch it!

This is a project I might undertake. So, did the kit come with everything needed? Good video👍

I believe your extra harness that was not used is for steering wheel controls u can buy a seperate harness for that if you do not want to loose them

What kind of mount do you have for it? Scosche? I can’t figure out how to assemble this scosche one

The extra wire harness that you could not plug into the new stereo is for the steering wheel radio control buttons. With your new stereo, you will not be able to control it with those steering wheel buttons.

do you know if it is possible to install an apple carplay screen into a 2006 ford explorer and have it completely functional?

Great help, thinking about upgrading the one on my Explorer 08 myself. Just curious but did you ever figure out what that unplugged wire did? Or any issues like if the bluetooth worked and all afterwards.

So, was that wiring harness all you needed? Or did you have to use another harness for that other smaller gray plug? I found a Metra 70-5520Av harness, but wonder if its really needed or not.

That second plug you don’t have connected would be for a factory subwoofer, mine doesnt have one but has the wiring

I don't see a pre-wired harness offer from Crutchfield when I try to order. Do you know if they quit making one?

Awesome video...do you have the link to were you bought all the items? Thanks

Do the steering wheel controls still work?

Hey bro I think u installed that radio bracket upside down… the little pegs that help hold it in place in the dash were on the top. The pocket should’ve been on the bottom. Doesn’t really impact anything tho

There are multiple harnesses on the website. What one did you get?

Eqst coast accents are usually funny just to listen to for a Midwesterner lol

Would you know the part number for the antenna adapter?

Does the wire adapter come in the box with the radio.

Did the buttons on steering wheel still work

VIC FIRTH lanyard, whos the drummer?

Do you still have steering wheel controls functional?

Hello,....can I replaced that radio with the one with back-up camera...

Im really struggling with the power port at 4:15

Where did you find the pre wired harness?

Hello, where did you buy the harness?

Did you disconnect the battery?

How much you want for the old radio ?

Thanks for the how to vid, how ever, I hope you removed the negative battery terminal off of the negative post, because you can fry your electronics...

Where did you buy the bizzle from ?

I thought you would at lease install a Android radio with back camera capability

how do you remove radio

The L.E.D. light problem on these radios are common, and the fix is rather easy. There are diodes that just need to be quickly resoldered and itll work just fine. Been working since ive done this for 4 years now. found the fix on youtube but dont have a link atm.

The problem with this is that none of the steering wheel controls or th factory USB or aux port will work. Also the cruise control won't work

What is Crutchfield?

why the hell wouldn't you put in a Double DIN Nav unit???

Спасибо брат! Привет из России! П.с. но грязь можно было бы и вытереть у АКПП 😊
