Another bluey question

[A5GUR]

Bluey as in bluetooth, not porno!

Can the factory bluetooth system be connected to a non oem headunit? I had my AVIC-X1 fitted today. The phone connects to the bluetooth when in the car. when i dial a number, i cant hear anything on the phone itself (this is when it would normally be playing throught the stereo). however the stereo will still be playing as normal.

So the phone is connected via bluetooth, however its not playing through the stereo.

The twats who fitted the stereo said they just connected the oem plug into an interface and connected it. Dont the aftermarket stereos have a seperate connection for telephones or something?

Help will really be appreciated. Im sure it can somehow be connected. But the installers are a bunch of farts!

how you doin kam!

i have had that before where when an oem phone kit is installed the sound is passed through the factory hifi but when you put an after market headunit in you have to either fit an extra spk somewhere or get a muting kit to interface it with the aftermarket unit.

i have done it before but i'd need to see the wiring to be able to tell which leads are needed if any.

let me know.
