Radio controls don't work with new radio (Super Exceed)

Hi all

Just wondering about the passenger radio controls on the Super Exceed (next to right passenger on the middle row). I bought a new radio a few days ago (somebody else installed it for me), but my son is dissapointed with the new installation because his controls don't work anymore. I think this console only comes with the Super Exceed only. With the old radio he used to be able to turn it on and off, change the stations (3 radio stations), but it doesn't do anything now.

Just wondering if there's any way to make this console work with a new radio... Has anyoned tried doing this?

Thx,

Fabio

if you installed a new deck from here then you probably cut the power,antenna& speaker tie in to the other deck, you could tie them back in if you want to.

If you are referring to the 'Audio Stage' controller in the back, it is only meant to work with the factory head unit, and uses unique plugs to connect the two. I haven't heard of anyone successfully connecting it in with a new stereo.

That's exactly what I'm referring to, the "audio stage" thingamagic in the back. Mmmm, so it will only work with the factory radio, eh?

Thx.

Maybe a little late but...I found the radio to be in an awful out of reach location. So i bought a radio with a remote control. I mounted the remote on the center console with velcro and viola i don't have to take my eyes of the road to change settings. The remote is easily removable to be used by any back seat passengers.
