Xantia radio - PU-1562A connectors pin out

Post by lancia58 »

Hi
I installed oon my Xantia MK II clarion PU-1562A. The head unit works fine but I have the following problem.

1) Each time I switched the car on I have to enter the head unit code.
2) Steering control connector can not be plugged onto the connector on the head unit. The groove of the connector on the head unit is located at the left and
the tong of the connector that is on the cable of the steering control is at the middle, maybe this connector should be different in order to plugged onto the head unit connector.

If I remove the tong from the connector and plug it onto the head unit connector will the wiring be correct ? Any body have the wiring diagram of the connector and the pins on the head unit ?
Why each time I switched the car on and off I should enter the radio code ?

Thanks

I think that your car originally would have been fitted with a Philips system, and you have fitted an earlier Clarion head unit. It is likely that the power feed wires are swapped over, causing the loss of code. I think that you will find that the steering wheel controls are not compatible unless you fit the steering wheel control pcb/harness from an earlier Xantia

So if I have the pin out of the head unit I can rewire the connector to provide the +12v to the correct pin on the head unit and the steering remote

You should be able to find the pinout of the head unit on the web. Lots of HU connection details for specific units there.

In the driver's car book there is a pin out of the supply and speakers wiring. I checked the power feed wires and they are swapped in compare to the pin out in the driver's book. I'll extract the power pins and swapped them. I still didn't find the pin-out of the steering control stalk.

Thanks

This old thread had info on steering wheel controls for PU-1562A and Xantia:
viewtopic.php?t=26531&start=15

The steering wheel controls simply feed resistance values (two wires only) to the head unit; each function has a specific resistance value.
