Thanks for the suggestion @sprinklerman. I ended up getting the Sony XAV-AX100 off ebay for $450 so my search is over! My needs are pretty basic these days honestly. I used to get all crazy with my systems but now I just like the bass loud and the highs clean enough to hear the lyrics. No time...

Awesome. Bout to buy one off ebay right now!

That looks like it would do the trick actually. When you're using maps through CarPlay, does it limit what you can do on the head unit at all? Any annoying stuff you've run into with it at all?

I've had the same Kenwood touch screen for years now and it doesn't play nicely with my new iPhone. The bluetooth feature has been broken on my HU for years so I've been using the aux cable. No headphone port on iPhone 7 makes that a big problem ? So what's a good touch screen head unit to use...

He didn't even have a BBB page when I went to file my complaint, so that's weird. Maybe he got it deleted somehow. But if it wasn't for me reporting him to the BBB, my issue never would've gotten solved.

Just wanted to bump this and say that Dominick Iraggi is a scumbag business man and luckily now he has a file with the BBB that has a negative report by myself. If anyone else has had a poor experience due to his deceitful tactics, I suggest you go and add your story to the BBB page. He...

I just bought two brand new XS D3400's and charged each one fully before installing them. Alternator is brand new also. They are wired in parallel with no isolator. I read that when testing for amp draw that I should remove the ground connection from the main battery, and then connect the DMM...

I'll definitely look into this, and you're probably right because I had to wire in some resistors to make my LED turn signals work. They don't stay on when the truck is off.. but I'm sure it's the same concept.

Oh I guarantee it's in the add ons somewhere. My wiring is all over the place after all the stuff that's been added over the years by several different installers. I wish I could just start fresh with a new truck, but money doesn't allow for that right now.

If the door sensor was staying open, my retractable steps would stay down, which they don't, so I don't think its the door sensor. I'll check the glovebox, I read about that somewhere else also. I'm going to test the bulb and everything else this weekend while reading the amperage draw from...

I definitely need to figure out why that dome light is staying on. It's weird because it's not even fully on, it's barely on and visible at all. I've made sure that no switches are in the on position and I've sat in the truck for 15 minutes after locking it and setting the alarm and it never...

Will my multi meter be able to perform the tests outlined in the previously mentioned Youtube video that explains how to locate the circuit that's drawing the power?

wow thank you! that should definitely work. I hope I can figure it out on my own so I don't have to pay my audio shop $70/hr to trace the power draw. I've never used a clamp meter before but I'm sure it can't be too hard to figure out.

Under $100 isn't bad then. What model do you use?

Do you have a clamp meter you could recommend that doesn't cost an arm and a leg?
