Hi Elimo

Two pics as the manual had the paragraph separated. This is for DEH 2500 only. Let me know if you want the 1500 as well.

The specs don't mention MP3 anywhere, so the answer most probably is "No".

there is no reset button on most pioneer cd players only pioneers that carry reset buttons are the in dash or double din players that play dvd's

Ok turn the system off to where only the clock is on, the green button lower left of the tuner buttons, press & hold down untill you see ((( ))) on the left & right side of the unit, then use the tuner buttons to a just the time !! GOOD LUCK ;-)

Hold down the green button till its shuts off then press it again till you see the clock come on you will see (( )) on both sides of the clock then you move the tuner buttons up or down to change the time !

Press FUNCTION to select CLOCK. Press FUNCTION repeatedly until CLOCK appears in the display. Press until the segment of the clock you want to set. Pressing will select one segment of clock, hours - minutes. That segment should then "Blink". Press ^ or v to set the CLOCK. Pressing ^ or v will increase or decrease the hours -minutes.
Hope that helps, good luck with it.

Those cables are for audio out only you need an IP Bus adapter to connect the AUX input. the CDRB20 or CDRB10 is what you need. the CDRB20 allows for more inputs as well such as CD changers, and XM radio tuners.

According to the user's manual the following procedure is used to set the clock.

Manual is at this link http://www.retrevo.com/support/Pioneer-DEH-P2500-Car-Receivers-manual/id/23227dj392/t/2/

Here's the procedure indicated in the manual

Hi there dboy,

As a rule, Pioneer stereos are aftermarket installs. Any other equipment installed with it?

For example, do you have amplifiers in the trunk powering your system? If so, a malfunction there would explain things.

If not, we start with the easiest first.

• Press the A button (Audio Adjust). This cycles through the various adjustments you can perform.
  
• Make sure Balance and Fader are centered.
• Volume is up above 10 or so.
  
• And of course, Mute is off.
• Press the F button to cycle through functions again. Any difference?

If there is an ATT (Attenuator) on your model press it. This is another form of mute (why don't they just call it Mute?).

If there is no change, make note of any digits, characters or symbols appearing on the face. I don't need the obvious items like station or CD Track. It's the non intuitive items. (what's that squiggle there mean?)

I know you've done this already, but ask the prime suspect again if he did anything, however innocent, just prior to the meltdown.

I'm pretty sure this is an Auto Equalize option on your model, I just can't swear to it though.

Ask if the term 'Auto Equalize' rings any bells. If he shows any recognition, come right back with, 'Did you do it without the microphone'? If he cracks under the pressure, let me know. The EQ settings may be way high (off the wall high) and the system is protecting itself by not making any noise.

Comment me back with your findings and a bit more about the configuration. We may need to go a few rounds before we end the sounds of silence

This Is Gonna Sound Nuts lol But Get Another Cd You Don't Like Or A Blank And Hit Eject While Sliding The Disk In Gently Toward The Top The Other Will Come Out And Then You Can Remove Both Disks. Precautions The blank and or bad cd doesn't need to go in further then half way. you have got to hit eject while sliding the other in. the cd your placing in gently has to stay close to the top. Mine Does This With Every Other cd. I Promise This Works.

Here is the manual for the radio. if this is not the radio please give me the model # and I will get you the right one. how to set the clock is on page 29

Good Luck and Please Rate FixYa!

nae luck haha

i have the same unit i put it in my jeep wrangler had problems as far as which 2 hot wires need to be hooked up. finnally figured it out. take it out hook up the hot wire and ground straight to the battery, it should come on if it does come on then you have a problem in the wiring from the dash, to make sure the wiring in the dash is good you should check your fuses first, then do a continuity test with a volt meter to check for a break in the wire wether it being ground or hot. weed out the simple problems first. if your head unit does not come on from direct hook up to the battery then the problem exist in your head unit

Hi,

A Pioneer DEH-P2500 power wiring would include:
* Black - chassis/body ground (GND)
* Yellow - always on B+12 such as the + terminal of the battery;
* Red - switched on B+12 such as the ACC terminal of the IGN switch.

Hope this be of initial help/idea. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need additional information.

Good luck and kind regards.

Thank you for using FixYa.

hi,
i m Ritesh Upadhyay , there is no sound driver in my computer.
so i want to download it.

open unit to point of seeing the connector in question. turn pcb over to reveal the pins soldered to board. Simply using a hot solder iron and flux-core solder (and you properly grounded using wrist strap), proceed to re-solder each pin's solder joint. Additionally, to prevent this same broken solder joint problem again, use strong epoxy and apply to gaps between connector and pcb to prevent connector from "rocking" back and forth during cable installation.

When the unit was in the Mazda, it was run and monitored by the Body Control Module computer. Moving dedicated units from one vehicle to another seldom works the way you expect. https://www.google.com/search?q=pioneer+ca9pa+v6+650+wiring+diagram ..
