#1: Multiplex radio Author: puggy206, Location: scunthorpePosted: Sat Sep 24, 2011 9:41 am ---- Hi all as u know just recently bought a 206 1.6 quiksilver and just had a simple question.
My friend has a gti 180 and his radio comes on straight away when he unlocks his car and stays on for 30 seconds after he takes his key out due to the bsi activating/active and the multiplexing I think I could be wrong though.
And I was just wondering should all multiplexed car radios come on when the car is unlocked or is it just a special feature in the 180?
If I can do it? How?
Thanks all Last edited by puggy206 on Sat Sep 24, 2011 9:56 am; edited 1 time in total

You friend either has a wiring fault & / OR an aftermarket radio
Standard factory multiplexed radio shouldn't behave like this.

It does & its also not wired up correctly
#6: Re: Multiplex radio Author: puggy206, Location: scunthorpePosted: Sat Sep 24, 2011 10:09 am ---- So it shouldn't do that then? Haha

Nope.
Next time when your friends car is locked, use your remote fob & press the unlock button near it.
Sometimes the BSI unit will wake up as it see's an unlock signal flaoting through the air which in turn will power the aftermarket radio up & then the BSI see's the unlock signal isnt the 1 its looking for & goes back to sleep again

Just leave the radio ON next time before you turn the ignition key OFF, next time you turn the key ON the radio will come on again.
#12: Re: Multiplex radio Author: puggy206, Location: scunthorpePosted: Sat Sep 24, 2011 10:22 am ---- Oh I know that but I was on about when I unlock the car haha so when I open my door the radio is already playing haha

Seems a pretty pointless feature.

According to this thread there is both normal and 'extended' ignition wires available in the ISO socket.
Personally I like the extended ignition as it gives my empeg just enough time to boot before I open the door and get to hear it read out a welcome + the time/date The staying on doesn't concern me as it has become automatic to press pause/mute after engaging the hand brake, unclipping the belt, and before pulling the key.
#15: Re: Multiplex radio Author: puggy206, Location: scunthorpePosted: Sat Sep 24, 2011 1:17 pm ---- I like the extended ignition too but I also read up on another forum that it cam f*** the bsi up?
