my unit comes tomorrow and i really need to finish up all the wiring before it gets here - my Symphony I has CANH and CANL cables that go into it - does anyone know for sure if I need to get the CANH and CANL from the cluster if I have the wires there? I have a dark gray cable w/a black line coming out of the CANH and a lighter gray w/a white stripe coming out of the CANL, is this enough? On mjtaylors b5 install tutorial he says you need orange cables not gray, can anyone confirm this? I dont want to cut into my RNS-E harness if I dont have to!

FYI - those two gray wires are NOT enough I had to cut the harness and re-wire the CANH and L for it to work.

  1. RNS-E Motherboard Diagram

    RNS-E
    Does anyone have a circuit diagram for the 192 version RNS-E motherboard?

  3. MK2 DVD Drive Swap

    RNS-E
    Hi all - After years of searching, I finally found a US MK2 RNS-e with "RFSL" pin in C2. It appears to be out of an A3 from 2009 or 2010. The unit was not good cosmetically, but I have another good condition MK2 already, and the price was right (200 USD). When the unit arrived, I discovered...

  5. DIY: convert Euro RNS-E to USA version

    RNS-E
    I decided to write a tutorial for people who bought EU rns-e and do not know how to convert it to US version. I spent a big amount of time on AZ and on Audiforum.us trying to figure it out. It is very confusing on Audiforum and half of links are dead, so here you go, nice and easy way. When I...

  6. Bad unit?

    RNS-E
    Hi, my car came with a euro RNS-E unit installed. It was working when I test drove the car, but upon pickup the display was dead. I removed the unit and can get the fan to spin when applying 12v to the pin on the back, but no display still. I put the unit back in and noticed in the dark the...
