VW Pinout, 8 pol mini ISO
« on: May 21, 2005, 01:13:36 pm »
Hallo im Hans from Germany and i need your help.

I want to modify the phatbox cable to connet it to a 8pol mini ISO connector.

My VW Passat have an VW Beta Radio which has an connector for a 8pol  charger cable at the radio side an
an 12pol connector at the charger side.

I dont want to buy an extra charger cable to connect it to the phatbox cable, so i need the pinout for the 8pol mini ISO.

Does anyone can help me?

Sorry for my bad english

With kind regards

Hans

The pins are numbered like this (looking into the back of the radio):

13 16 19
 15 18
14 17 20

13: Data In
14: Data Out
15: Clock In
16: B+
17: Turn-on
18: Ground/shield
19: Audio/L
20: Audio/R

The CD changer harness pinout can be found here:

So the connection between the 8 pin mini-ISO and the 12 pin changer connector are:

mini-ISO -> changer
13 -> 1
14 -> 4
15 -> 2
16 -> 6
17 -> 8
18 -> 9 (and shield)
19 -> 10 (shielded)
20 -> 7 (shielded)
Power ground -> 3
