Isimple install

[Westtex]

I am installing the Isimple gateway on my 07 RSV. I thought it might be possible to connect directly to plug that connects to the cassette player rather than the plug that comes out the back of the cassette that connects to the CD player (thereby eliminating the cassette deck. Doesn't appear to work without passing through the cassette connection. Has anyone been had any success by passing the cassette player? I was hoping the eliminate the cassette player altogether.

I did a write up when I got my iSimple two years ago...

Hope this helps. Doesn't answer your question about connecting it to the cassette cable and removing the cassette... but might be something you missed with which input to use on the iSimple ?

Thanks. I have read most of the posts and have not found anything concerning connecting directly to the cassette cable. I can only say - I could not get it to work that way. Works fine when you connect to the cable coming out of the cassette for the CD changer. I was just wanting to confirm if this was the case for anyone else and make sure I wasn't missing something.

Hopefully someone that knows the connections in the fairing better can respond as to how/where the saddle bag c-bus cable is connected.

 

If you disconnect the cassette and connect the iSimple to the saddle bag cable, does the iSimple still work?
