    Centre Console Removal

    Hi all, I haven't been here for a while, it was a couple of years ago when I replaced the mmcs with an after market Android head unit. I was wanting to remove the centre console on my 2015 Outlander to gain access to the handbrake cable adjustment nut. Can anyone advise how I should go about...

    Which EV Charger to get

    Hi all, I've decided to get a charger installed, there are 2 I'm considering, ie Hypervolt and Rolec QUBEV Smart. I prefer having an untethered charger so that it's future proof. As Hypervolt only do tethered ones, I would have to get a type 1 cable tethered version for the phev. It is also...

    Which EV Charger to get

    Hi, thanks for the reply, I've done the maths and an EV tariff would be worthwhile for me. Regarding charging the phev, I'll need to reconsider if its worth having an EV charger installed. Just out of curiosity I wondered what percentage of owners only charger with the granny charger.

    Hi all, it's been quite a while since I posted on here, hope you're all well. I'm in the market for a new ev charger, I used to have a Rolec in my previous house, it was popular a few years ago and compared to current chargers was quite basic. It seems the new ones are wifi enabled, smart...

    Installation of after market Android head unit

    Does anyone know how the mmcs gets its dab signal, does the aerial pick up both fm and dab and have 2 leads. If so, I don't see the dab signal input to the mmcs, there is one possible connector but I think it is probably the GPS input. If I can't work this out for my new head unit I will have...

    Installation of after market Android head unit

    Hi Angainor, Yes, it works with the factory fitted reverse camera, that saved on rewiring a new cam. All the steering wheel controls work, ie volume, skip, change mode, and the phone controls. The factory fitted mic and GPS receiver are now obsolete, I've fitted the ones that came with the...

    Installation of after market Android head unit

    I bought the head unit and canbus on ebay, it is a Dasaita, there are several models. If you search "Dasaita Mitsubishi" it should bring up the models, they're priced from about £260 to £390. It appears the seller is the manufacturer. Very fast delivery through FedEx. I bought the cheaper...

    Installation of after market Android head unit

    Hi all, My mmcs unit developed a fault and I have recently installed an Android head unit, I thought I would share my experiences as others considering the same might find it useful. I also installed a canbus for the steering wheel controls and the factory fitted rear reverse camera. I'm...

    Installation of after market Android head unit

    Hi folks, I've ordered an after market Android head unit to replace the mmcs unit that developed a fault in my 2015 gx4h. The replacement I believe will be a perfect fit and compatible with the factory fitted rear camera and the steering wheel controls. If anyone is interested I am happy to...

    MMCS has stopped working

    Hi, I have checked the wiring and all is OK, ie permanent and switched live are OK as is earth. I've decided the head unit is faulty, so been looking for used ones from written off phevs. I've come across visually identical units including all the connecters at the back but with different...

    MMCS has stopped working

    Thanks for the quick response, no I hadn't checked all the fuses but will do, if no fuse at the back of unit I won't take it out just yet as the wiring and connectors should be OK. Thanks.

    MMCS has stopped working

    Hi folks, I've had my 2014 Phev for 3 years now and still happy with it. I had the first big problem last week, the MMSC has stopped working, it's not powering on, I've checked the fuse which is OK. I'll remove the unit when I have time at the weekend to check connections are OK, anyone know...
