While Im waiting on the code the install was easy.
I used the blue connector that was going to the old nav screen in the dash.
I used wire #6 (white) for the ibus signal and #2 (brown) for ground. I used the fuse tap on fuse #7 in the glove box which shows to be telephone for the positive wire of the ibus interface. This should be key switched. I will double check that when I go back out in a minute.
So the ibus interface has 4 wires. You don't use one of them.
So on the ibus its :
1. Red to switch power source - Went to fuse box #7
2. Brown to ground - Used wire #2 in blue connector of old nav harness which was brown
3. White to ibus - Used wire #6 in blue connector of old nav harness which was white-ish
4. Green isn't used - Its designed for switching the nav screen out for backup camera rigs on unique setups which we aren't using.
