PCB schematic and unit prep

 

Schematic

 

PCB

Just a tiny PCB is needed
including a 7805 with estimated current draw of 20mA
5.1V zener as input protection via 2k resistor (SMD)

 

IR receiver

IR Lightguide viewed in Infrared lighting. wanted to know if i could
plade the diode to the side of instead of directly in front of it

 

Unit prep

IR LED is installed behind the display

 

Car measurement

Connector below dash, near steering wheel (blue -cavity 1):

Result:
Vol- 1.253V
Vol+ 1.668V
Src 2.072V
Seek + 2.485V
Seek - 2.904V
Nxt 3.313V
No button 4.020V

- Engine running gives same result

 

 

 

 

Code

Code v3.0

Seek repeat play/pause cleaned and if "hysteresis" added
Code v4.0
