Hi, I have a 2014 2.2D Sport Nav, which came with the NB1 Mazda Tom Tom/Touch Screen System.
I have replaced with a Sony Android Auto unit, which is great. I have got the rear park camera connected fine (UK wiring seems different to some guides I've seen - only 2 wires for the camera, VID+ and Ground).
Everything is good, other than for the life of me, I cannot get sound out of the right side of the car. I have used some Connects2 fitting kits for steering wheel controls and harness adapter, which included a unit to drop the line level outputs from the stereo to pre-out levels required for the Bose system, and the left channel works fine, but right channel is dead.
I have tried bypassing this unit using RCA outputs from the stereo into the wiring harness, it's still no different, which got me thinking - is it something possibly to do with the car's factory Nav system muting the right (drivers - UK Car remember) side for a voice prompt which will never come, as there is no nav unit there any more? Has anyone come accross this before?
I need to pull the stereo again and double double check the wiring connections for the audio channels, but I can't see them being wrong.
Will pulling the battery earth off reset anything? Is it worth trying?
Any other pointers? My other thought was going directly from the RCA outputs on the stereo straight into the Bose amp, which I believe is in the drivers kick panel - is that correct?
Many Thanks for the pointers so far I have gained from the forum.
