Yeah i'm not sure whether it's the USB cable, aux/usb module, or the actual head unit that's the problem. Everything works atm apart from the USB connection i'll take it apart and test it all uninstalled this arvo. Just checking that the AUX/USB module only needs the USB cable connected to work? The aux part isnt connected to anything atm. Just really annoying
From a 2017 i30 i think.
Should there be any lights in the USB module? Should the text light up? Cause i aint seeing any lights either
I noticed you're in perth too, you happen to know where i can find the USB cable wiyhin a day or so? Do you or anyone you know happen to be selling one?
Yeh I'm still gazumped here. No voltage of the port.I tried the dealer (Westpoint Auto Brisbane) and they flatly said "nope not interested" (even when I'm happy to pay the $155/hr rate).I tried a small car audio guy, hoping they'd like to have a crack at it (and be paid for it). Nope, he said car compatibility means its not worth his time/rate, and would steer me towards an aftermarket replacement.I still feel like its a logic condition (say +1V on the aux-detect pin) which is preventing the usb port from activating, but I don't have the tools or skills to effectively troubleshoot it. Or its a hidden software setting which is a simple usb enable/disable.PM me if you'd like to buy a discounted GD-03, aux unit, and aux-usb cable and try your luck.I'll remain in innocent hope that someone finds a solution, before I remove the GD-03 and put the GD-02 back in so that I have access to usb charge/ipod mode from the old aux unit.Looks like I'll have to wait until a new car to get carplay.
I decided to get a refund for the USB cable and assembly that came with the head unit, and chose to buy the same USB cable and assembly from another wrecker. Almost 2 weeks later and now apple carplay works!
Sick tail lights!! Where did you get them from?
I'm a 2013 GD owner in Chile. I was wondering if I can swap my head unit for a GD-03, since models vary in different regions too. I see some A/C units, dials and buttons in this forum that I don't think are the same as local models.Edit: Just to clarify, I read the whole thread and I know it is feasible to do this job. I just need some peace of mind as to whether you know / see any obvious constraints based on my model & region.Just FYI mine's got OEM camera, which displays on the mirror.Also a picture of the exterior, in case anyone wants to know how GD was in my country I have the 1.8l, 6MT, panoramic roof version. This was top of the line at the time.My only mod is that I replaced the tail lights with OEM LED by Mobis.

Is there a link so I can have a look at purchasing one.Also, how hard was the installation?
Also note that being the top model with the climate control aircon you'll have the head unit that is the same shape as the navigation units which prevents the GD-03 from being fitted.
if I got it correctly. GD-03 won't fit in my car because of a mismatch in shape of the unit itself and my car?
Correct, the base shape of the head unit fascia and aircon will not match.
