I have a clarion max386vd, when i connect my ipod it doesn't show the list on the headunit

Make one, otherwise list what car it is going in.

you have to contact the manufacturer.give them the model # and the serial # and they should be able to help you.

The wire harness is still available. A regular clarion harness will work. If your local car audio store doesn't have one, you can get one at pacparts.com. The part number is 854632082.

the USB port on the clarion should allow you to hook up varios devices and read the data on them.
Unfortunatly the Apple Ipod has proprietary software and this may not allow it to work with the Clarion. To test this try another MP3 player or memory stick with some song files on it preferably one that shows up as a generic USB storage device to Windows and see if it works. If it does and the Apple doesn't then the apple is probably not compatable this way. Fortunatly the clarion does have aux-in which should work with any MP3 player.

First you will need to get a wire harness for your specific make, model & year of car. This will interface the car wiring plug to your new clarion headunit.

Next you will connect the wires from your purchased wire harness to the wires of your Clarion Headunit. Using **** connectors with a wire crimper is the best way to do so.

Here is a wire color coding guide for the wires on your Clarion headunit:

P o w e r Memory (+12v Constant) Yellow Ignition (+12v Switched) Red Ground (-) Black Dimmer Pink/White (Alpine only) Power Antenna Blue Amplifier Turn-on Blue/White Phone Mute Light Blue (Sony only) S p e a k e r s Right Front (+) Gray Right Front (-) Gray/Black Left Front (+) White Left Front (-) White/Black Right Rear (+) Violet Right Rear (-) Violet/Black Left Rear (+) Green Left Rear (-) Green/Black

for me it cannot be.in pc it can be, but in car it cannot be.

Go to a web site named clymer mannuals

Replace the laser head assembly.

you have to disconnect the grass green wire from the handbrake and connect it straight to ground then presto u will be able to watch dvd's whilst u drive

pls rate because noone has been rating

I have the same HU and the same processor as you. First I only used the chinch cables to the processor, and from the changer.

The improvements you make; your headunit DAC and your chancher DAC wil not be used anymore. The differens; normal with a cd you convert a digitalsignal into analoge, in the HU or changer, and then you make it digital again in the processor, en put the signal analoge into your amp.

The advantage is; the processor uses the famous Burr Brown DACs and that is know by its good sound processing.

cheers mate
