Thanks Pete! That is good news! Great Job!

I want to modify the PAC GM 24 to feed the audio to a LS6 line level adaptor. Can you help with the PAC GM 24 modifications? I have the 1SB with nav and there are lots of us that this will solve not being able to hear our music with the roof off! Thanks for all you two have already done!

The GM 24 adapter takes the output from a given device (mp3 player, etc.) and converts it to line level out for you. The GM24 then feeds this line level output into the Nav radio line level input. If you want to capture just the line level output, you could easily do that by just tapping into the GM24 harness on the opposite of the GM24 module. Am I understanding your question correctly? You want to INPUT line level into the LS6 adapter? If so, just tap the line level on the back side of the PAC GM24 and you're all set.

Steve Germany

Yes that is exactly what I want to do. I was wondering if you had the pin outs from the HU (GM 24 harness) and if I need to cut the harness wires for each speaker or if I should tap into the each wire in order to connect to the LS6 (and thus to my amps).

My understanding is that I need to leave many of the connections in place (antenna trigger, amp power etc) and pass them through the PAC GM 24 so that the rest of the integrated conponents still operate. Is this correct?

Bottom line questions...
1) Can I just cut the speaker wires on the PAC GM24 harness and feed them to the LS6 or do I have to tap the wires, and
2) Could you post the speaker pin outs from the HU 24 pin harness? I have two conflicting sets of pin outs and I really trust your insight.

Thanks!!!

Blazer - you are a stereophile's hero! Thanks for your help! I hope that someone put this thread into an archive somewhere!

Happy to help

And no issues with using both the NAV, XM Radio and the Aux input? (Not at the same time, of course). Does the select button step through to allow the selection of XM or Aux?

Can you use the AUX imput to install a DVD player?

Anyone have a problem with putting this in a 6 speed car? I followed these instructions to the 'T' and am getting dead batteries. I know its just from the installation of this cause I took it out for a week and didn't have a dead battery, day after I put it back in, of course got a dead battery. Anyways just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this. Thanks.

Blazer

I don't have the XM so I can't answer that. However, I use the CD changer button to listen to my mp3 player. Once you add the AUX input, the cd button changes from CD to CD/CDX. Press it twice, that puts you in CD changer mode and the mp3 player works.

USe the Monster FM Transmitter..Works Great...

blazer, hey i just got the parts in and i am somewhat confused. What are the modifications that teamspeed is doing? i want to do them to the gm24 adaptor i just received. I just got back in from out of town and cant wait to make this all work.
Thanks, Dave

Blazer

Hey Dave - TeamSpeed will put the same connectors on the PAC harness that he uses for the V1 hardwire harness. You won't have to cut any OEM wiring for the splices that way.

rimofhell

Anyone know the answer to this one?

nowheelie

Yes, this is a problem with the specific to the gm24 & man 6sp. I talked to PAC audio about this and here's what I found out -

The pinB1 (oem red/white tracers), that the gm24 yellow wire connects to, is constant power in the manual c6, so when you hookup the gm24 unit it's draining the battery.

You have to find an alternate rap power source, or hookup a relay.


I myself have not tested all the harness plugs with the volt meter to see what their state is during engine-running or total shutdown with and without the gm24 unit to verify this.

I just took my gm24 unit out and have been fine for quite some time now.

Steve Germany

Not too difficult to find a switched power source from the fuse pannel under the passenger's foot well.

nowheelie

I found another thread regarding adding a 12v accessory line to the car, as above to the passenger side fuse panel.

(hope that link works - if not, do a search for "12v")


I did the add-a-circuit method, connect to the "wiper/htd-seat relay" fuse. Ran the gm24 unit as normal, except the "gm24 yellow" power line to the fuse panel with add-a-circuit.

Aux-audio only available when the engine is running. Runs great. No battery drain.

Periokid

Isn't there a switched power source at the radio? Even the manual transmission shuts the radio off when the car is off.

nowheelie

This is only a problem in the manual c6's.

Unfortunately, it was found that the the power feeding into the radio is constant power. The gm24 unit, which was tapping into that, was thusly running my battery down.

The auto c6's don't have this same problem, and can be tapped into the radios power line using the manufacturers instructions verbatim.

I'm sure they'll figure something out, but for the time being...tap into the fuse.

(the above was confirmed by pac audio in conversation, and myself in implimentation both ways)
