Hi, Alphard, Ah20 2013, 18 speakers. I’m removing my amplifier, going to connect speakers directly to new head unit. I found this attached to the amp. Can anyone tell me what it does and whether I need to keep it plugged in? Thank you.

Can I ask - my speakers have recently stopped working (ah20, 18 speaker premium sound) the rear screen was removed a year ago. I have an android head unit and the connector shown above goes directly into my canbus. The canbus has a green steady light glowing. Can’t figure out why it would suddenly stop working. do I need to short these wires as mentioned above?

An old post, but did you get this fixed? My android hu was outputting sound fine but now it’s stopped and I can’t figure out why. I have a feeling the amp isn’t firing up as I usually hear it through the speakers, but no more. Anything I can do to bump it on?

hi, I have just bought and installed a dudu7 11” HU. Most things work, but not any steering wheel controls. Were yours working ok?

yes I HAD an original unit that I muted it on, but since removing this to put in an android head unit, it’s come back on again annoyingly.

this is what I’ve bought as well. Should receive it next week.

Hi Chris, the right hand button I found was a volume setting but just toggles between low, medium and high volumes - never off. So looks like I will have to disconnect it.

got you, I’ll just try the volume then!

Sorry to renew an old post, but can anyone point me in the direction of instructions on how to remove this permanently (series 20)?

Great, thank you. 🙏

FYI, these are the cables I have, and the rear of the unit

Chris.ac, would you know what plugs these are for? I am thinking they go to the amp but I’m not sure. thanks.

thank you 🙏

Sorry for resurrecting an old post, but I’m in a similar situation to the OP now. For my head unit 56107 18 speakers (most of which are no longer needed as I have a full length side conversion) I understand there are two options: a) MOST decoder box that still uses the amp b) Amplifier bypass cables that still connect to the amp but doesn’t use it However, is it possible to completely remove the amp and everything else under the passenger seat, and use the speakers direct to the android head unit? The motive behind this is to free up a little more storage space. thank you.

Funny enough I’m having the same quirk. When the gauge looks low, and the fuel to empty reads less than 100 I can only fill up with approx 37ltr. I have a hybrid 2013, I’m wondering if the fuel tank is smaller in these?

Thank you very much for this offer but im temporarily located on south coast, not Stratford at the moment.

I thought I was clear in my original post 😂 the speedo is in mph and the odometer says km but I have tested it with a distance travelled app and it appears to be miles.

If he did, would the readings i mentioned above be miles? Not just the speedo and odometer?

I bought from a private importer not a dealer, but seeing as speed and odometer is registering miles I’m assuming it’s a chip as you say. My question though was on the km/ltr and distance to empty. Are you saying everything should be in miles? I.e. fuel consumption is 8.1 miles per km in the above? also….myncar was showing 81km to empty (as above, maybe this is 81 miles) and only took 37 ltrs to fill up. Seems a bit low to to me, I’m unsure what the tank holds (mine is a 2013 hybrid). thanks again.

Hi all, my new to me alphard 2013 has had the speedo converted to mph, and I’ve tested the odometer that despite still saying km seems to be miles. do you know whether the km/l reading and km distance to empty would be miles as well? These seem harder to verify (to me!). thanks
