Very well done. Just ordered one for my wife’s car and I’m sure I’ll be watching your video a couple more times.

Thanks for the review and tutorial on the install. Because of your video, I purchased the same unit and it is working great! The only issue I am having is being able to hear my music from Spotify on the CarPlay in ALL the speakers. For some reason it is only playing in the front speakers. When I play the radio through the android section of the unit, all speakers are working and I am able to EQ the lows, miss, and highs. BUT, when I play music through the CarPlay section of the unit, the music is very flat with no EQ and it only plays through the front speakers. Have you had this same issue or do you know what I am doing wrong?

Great video - very interested to hear what you think in a month or so! Thanks for posting this video. Will it let you use Android Auto for navigation and also let you use the FM radio?

Very informative tutorial! Question: what does the power button do? That's the one right above the 'house/home' button. Is there a way to turn off the display but still have the unit operational? Thanks!

I need help getting my back up camera to work in my 2016 Highlander. I made sure the yellow back up cable is plugged into the back up yellow plug and verified it is the cable attached to the factory harness. I also tried updating all the resolutions but nothing.

This is a great video! Btw, is the Apple CarPlay unit compatible with the original dashboard screen (between the speedometer and rpm meter)? i.e. if you play a song using the new infotainment device, would you be able to use the steering wheel buttons to scroll pages on the original dashboard, and see that the name of the song in that dashboard screen too? - Cheers!

Unfortunately, it can't keep the feature.

Your video was very nicely done. I have a neighbor who has an android type radio from a competitor's company, and units look exactly the same from the outside. He complains the screen is to dark in direct sunlight and he is unable to pick up location radio stations clearly. How is the ViaBecs different, does it also have these same problems.

@viabecsexpert5681 Ай бұрын

I can't guarantee that our screens don't have the same issue. We didn't test its brightness under sunlight. However, our screen offers day and night modes, and the brightness is adjustable. Moreover, our screen is QLED, resulting in more vibrant and vivid colors. Video: How to adjust screen brightness and change themes. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/otacedGTvMzOgXU.html

I just installed this in my 2014 Highlander Limited with JBL. So far I really like the system. Everything seems pretty easy to locate and it's very user friendly. I have encountered one issue that I'm wondering if it's been addressed yet. With music, I noticed that not all channels are coming through. I followed the installation instructions that were provided, but I'm wondering if connecting the red and white aux cables is forcing the sound to only come through two channels. With the JBL setup, do I need to have the red and white cables connected for the amp to function properly?

the AUX L/R Input lines work with the original AUX port. you can try to set up the surrounds on the DSP app.

Step 1: Please unplug and plug the canbus box and 8PIN canbus plug. Sometimes the canbus wiring is not connected tightly. Step 2: please rechoose the canbus option. S1: connect the head unit with your Phone hotspot first. Press Settings -- Factory -- Select Models -- password is 123456 -- Model choose. S3: Choose CanBox Brand: 03：Simple Soft --30：Toyota-- Models: 14：All New Highlander -- Config: Public Finally, press ok to save the settings. Then the head unit will update it automatically. Video: Set up the canbus option. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pbiTddFkqJzZnqc.html Note: A CANbus adapter for an car radio enables integration with the vehicle's systems, providing features like steering wheel control support, climate control adjustment, door/trunk status, parking sensor integration, and access to onboard computer information. So you don't need to remap the steering wheel control manually.@@kingsleynze3044

I am thinking about switching from competiitor. Can you set the units to miles instead of km? Also is the unit measurement preserved on dashboard? And does the tracking line for rear camera function as in the original? And does it have hdmi out? - sorry lots of questions.

1. yes, you can set the units to miles instead of km. Video: You will be able to see this setting in 49 seconds. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fr6Diq2AyrjGlas.html 2. our head unit can retain the camera tracking line. 3. no, it doesn't have HDMI ouptut.

Can you confirm that the unit change to miles also will keep the car odometer in miles. Currently i have another unit, that when i change the units in the radio- it unfortunately keeps kilometers on the odometer .

I recently installed in my 2017. Is there a way to dim the screen more? I'll swipe from top down and set to min setting, but it's still way too bright. Also, if I'm set to dark mode on my phones google maps, it will display as daytime mode on the screen. Settings on viabecs display through Google maps doesn't show night mode on/off option.
