2014 bluetooth version
Does anyone happen to know what version of Bluetooth was used on the 2014 Caprice? Is there a way to determine this from one of the screens in the console?

Re: 2014 xm Hookup
OK, that makes sense. I was a little confused there, I was thinking the USB was the AUX input, since there isn't another one showing. I didn't realize it wasn't actually there, the provision was just in the harness. When I plugged the memory stick into the USB, it didn't play on the AUX selection, i...

Re: 2014 xm Hookup
After reading the article that bstoner posted again, several times, and thinking about it, I don't think what I'm trying to do is possible. If I'm understanding it correctly, the fact that my radio will play something from a thumb drive that's plugged in to the USB port tells me that the port is loo...

Re: 2014 xm Hookup
It says that is for vehicles without Mylink, which mine has. But just the same, it lookl like it should work, especially since it says it's for audio in AND usb. Which to me, means audio in is expected to be on the 3.5 mm plug. I'm trying to figure out what signal the XM unit puts out, what format a...

Re: 2014 PPV
Nice looking car...the headlights look clear, paint is glossy, that must have been kept inside a lot. How many miles on it?

Re: 2014 xm Hookup
Small amount of progress. I took a USB flashdrive with some music on it, and inserted it into the USB jack in the dash. It plays. I can even use the controls on the dash to make the music stop and skip etc. I went back, hooked up the satellite receiver through the 3.5mm to USB adapter, it doesn't pl...

Re: 2014 xm Hookup
Thanks for the advice. I'm trying the bluetooth option, along with working with another guy to possibly build a cable. I think XM offers some sort of device that you can plug into your fm antenna jack that will get the sound into the vehicle radio, also, I'm looking into that. If I can get the satel...

Re: 8,300 Idle Hours
I know this is an old thread, but I've got to throw this in for consideration: You're using a average vehicle speed of 33 mph to calculate. Maybe if that vehicle was a highway patrol or state police vehicle, that would be accurate, but on a municipal vehicle, I don't even think it's close. All of th...

Re: 2014 xm Hookup
So I tried it my way and failed. Although I do have a funny story. As I dug around the bundles of wire under the dash looking for a ignition hot to splice into, I found a nice light brown wire. I'm a soldering kind of guy, so I soldered in a connection, ran it to my cigarette lighter which had no ho...

Re: 2014 xm Hookup
If I'm going that route, why not just use the box I have and send it in? I was thinking that plugging into the AUX in port would be easier than reprogramming the box. I read that guys were able to plug in their I phones to the USB port and it would play...I was thinking if I got a 3.5 mm to USB jack...
