Not sure if anyone has experienced this but the other day I tried to connect a couple of different external devices via RCA into the aux VTR input to the left of the rear seat I could not get any video or audio to play - just a blue screen with error code 202. I could find any info on this when searching the internet but I did find a similar issue that had occurred to some Nissan Elgrands (same error code when connecting aux). In that case it was a matter of pressing a button on the remote which doesn't seem to apply here. 

Has anyone had any luck in using the aux input of the Alphard ? Has anyone come across the error code or a fix for it?

Hello Mick,

 

Welcome to the Forum.

 

Try Google Translate, on your mobile phone for the screen messages.

 

What source are you using? ?

Are you sure it is outputting RCA level analogue signals

Presumably that remote is for the source; as it isn't for the head-unit.

 

Are you using the 100v outlets which are switched from the dash ?

 

 

Hello Rojie! 
 

Thank you for your response! 

I have used google translate, and the message on the blue screen is saying: 

“Unable to receive (E202)” 

 

I am trying to connect my phone to play music via VTR input on the photo below and “Video” mode.

Does your phone output RCA level analogue signals ?

 

I am not a mobile phone user !

 

I would check your phone manual to ensure the output you are using is RCA compatible.

Hi Mick,

This won't help you that much, but I do use those connectors to play Spotify through my phone. It's an Android with a 3.5m earphone socket. I have the cinema sound set up and play it through the video channel using a two phonos to a 3.5mm jack plug..sounds amazing so they definitely can work. I'm not sure but they maybe audio only sockets.

Those sockets should take video as well, although I am not sure at what resolution.

Again, it will be analogue signals.

 

I had plans to use the sockets but went down the route of an HD Laptop instead (running from a leisure battery).

 

I was surprised when I loaded a Region 2 DVD into the HU (and it played) as I believe the Japanese use NTSC, whereas the UK uses PAL.

Quality isn't good, hence the HD PC; and of course the video won't play when on the move (not that I wanted it to) but the sound works fine.

Incidentally, the video interlock can be overcome.
