Visteon Dvd Mb 8008

[b11rme]

Hi hope you guys can help......

 

My galaxy has got a visteon media system, it has the screens in the headrest and vcr player in the back (which is jamming). so i brought a Visteon DVD player to fit in between the two front seat, under the media unit, however the DVD player has 2x 22 pin plugs comming out of it, none of these fit into the black box. is there a connector avaiable for this, also im suprised that 2x 22 pin plugs go into one plug.

 

hope someone can help

 

thanks

Not a chance mate, visteon use their own connectors.

 

There are at least 2 versions of the DVD player though, and later ones were linked to a "controller assembly" and came with a keycode just like the radios. Its highly probably you have the wrong DVD player for the system you have in the car - it should just connect direct into the media controller

Great things only get better, yes this one came with keycode, i have plugs which go into the back of the dvd player, but then i cant get anything to connect these 2x 22 pin plugs too.

The MB-8008 DVD player is the one used for the Mk3 ( 'True Ford' ) Galaxy's from 2006 onwards.

 

For those Galaxy's that are rebadged Sharan 's ie Mk 2 ( 2000 - 2006 ) the DVD player unit is a Visteon MB-8000

you need to turn the radio on to power the screens then the radio can be turned off, i think this is to prevent the screens from flattening the battery

Leave the radio on! The media system needs the feed to run, without it it'll turn back off 30 seconds after the radios switched off.
