Nokia ? Samsung ? Sony ? .. not everything is made in China ..though “most“ of everything else seems to be nowadays ..
I have B&O, McIntosh, and Nakamichi stereo equipment in the house , the main TV is B&0 ( the other ones are Sony, Samsung, and Pioneer ), all of our kitchen and other household appliances are either German, French, Italian, or American ( US ) .. so there is a way to avoid Chinese products, if you really try ( and willing to spend a lot more for them ..) but I do have an iPhone and an IPad , so I have not escaped entirely ..

I do believe China does make some high end products, but the cheaper the gizmos are, the crappier , IMO.

China will make it as good or bad as you want. You tell them your budget, how much profit margin you want, and what you acceptable defect rate is and tada you got a manufacturer. They’ll make you a flawless iPad, or, baby food with poison in it. Whatever you want to pay for.

Bang & O, all the way for my sounds in the crib.

Got a respect a man with McIntosh and Nakamichi - well done. In my yonder days I lusted after the Nakamichi Dragon but ended up with a Denon DAT. The good old days - when tape decks were cool.

Too lazy to turn a key? You guys really buy all kinds of crap from the Chinese...

That is true, but its like anything else. There is some decent stuff that is made in China like an iPhone for example and there is pure junk most of it held with a double sided 3M tape. It is sort of like you have Swatch and then you have Patek - but cool people in the know will still go and get A Lange and Söhne...

As long s it’s not 8-track, other tape decks are still cool. Reel to reel systems will always be cool, and for the ultimate cool factor you simply can’t a beat top end turntable ..put some Japanese-printed vinyl LPs on those and you‘ll hear sounds which can never be replicated by a digital device in a million years ..
LOL, don’t even get me started on time pieces, I’ve had a love affair with those since I was a kid, and spent way too much money indulging in that obsession.

Thank you for your reply.
I installed it by referring to the pdf manual and YouTube. By the way, the ground is taken from the ground of the fuse box as per the manual. Currently, the problem is that the lock does not work at all when approaching and when moving away, and the car automatically unlocks once or twice every 10 times when the engine starts. Lock / unlock / trunk open / engine start works fine with the remote control.
Thank you very much for your kind consultation.
I am in trouble because the support of the purchaser does not support me at all, so it is very helpful. View attachment 135429 View attachment 135430 View attachment 135431 View attachment 135432

When mine was malfunctioning when I first got it, I disconnected it for a couple days and then tried reconnecting and everything started working fine. I wonder if there is a rechargeable battery that had to die to reset it and that took a couple days. Not sure but it seemed to do the trick for me. It has now been working fine for 13 months. There is also a reset button on the black box that you could try. By the way I had the original kit where I had to solder all the wires to the remote. So, knowing you have a clip to install your old remote, I would double check if it is clicked in fully and maybe add some di-electric silicone to the contacts to make sure they have a good connection. A few more suggestions... Good luck.

What kind of phone do you have? lol, It's Chinese crap too...

Touché!

Of course, there is some China in very many products. But a) you don't have to like it and b) you certainly don't have to promote it with such crap.

Bingo, perfect approach, which even works. And in the end it needs a Trump with his "America first" agenda...

No no, of course, they have good things. For example AI technology at its finest, they are the absolute world market leader in "managing and protecting" people with superior seamless SMART City solutions.

I guess you can "feel it", I have certain reservations about the "main thing cheap", "maximum profit" and "no matter what happens then" behavior.

Well, I’m not against the technology, I’m only against the mess that is needed to install the start/stop button just to avoid turning the key. I installed the Gen2 in my car and I’m very happy with the result, and I’m sure a lot of people may also think that it ain’t worth it, but that wasn’t my case and as I said, I’m happy with it.

All true - can't do any of that without some proper tubes to dive it all. KT88 comes to mind. As far as the little mechanical works of art go for your wrist, my wife developed a 6th sense about those so I can't even think about them without a tin foil hat on to block her spying rays! No man should go without ticking chunks of metal on their wrist.

I asked my old man if I could have his Marantz from storage, he said sure. It was the old aluminum ones, excellent quality.

...he dropped off a box with an old VCR in it.

My Nephew (32 year old) still listens to my old Pioneer SA-7100
Pretty cool that my uncle actually gave it to me.

最初に入手したときに誤動作していたとき、数日間切断してから再接続を試みたところ、すべてが正常に機能し始めました。リセットするために死ななければならなかった、そしてそれが数日かかった充電式バッテリーがあるのだろうか。確かではありませんが、それは私にとってはうまくいくようでした。現在、13か月間正常に動作しています。ブラックボックスには、試すことができるリセットボタンもあります。ちなみに、私はすべてのワイヤーをリモコンにはんだ付けしなければならなかったオリジナルのキットを持っていました。したがって、古いリモコンを取り付けるためのクリップがあることを知っているので、それが完全にクリックされているかどうかを再確認し、接点に誘電性シリコンを追加して、接続が良好であることを確認します。さらにいくつかの提案...頑張ってください。

ありがとうございます。
ワイヤーを接続せずに数日間試してみます。
ありがとうございました。

So i know a lot of people have gotten the AuCar Android Units via @Robin Elliott and I was curious if anyone has tried their keyless start unit? US $415.0 |Aucar Keyless start SMART ENGINE START REMOTO CONTROL OF MOBILE PHONE for Maserati GT/GC GranTurismo 2007 2015 on AliExpress

I am honestly less interested in remote start as I am having the more Modern Maserati Key for the GT.

Yes it is working perfectly!

 

[Pado]

I have installed this system on my GrandCab and it is working well.
Only issue is the remote battery, looks like I have to change them too often. Anybody else with the same issue???

 

[pnemethy]

My original batteries died fast as well. I bought Sony batteries and they are still going strong a year later. Probably any name brand battery will last longer.
