mazda lcd display factory

The FC-MAZD systems package is a comprehensive high definition Rear View Camera and Factory Connect Harnessfor your MAZDA. The OEM style Rear View Camera is mounted above the license plate area and connects to the Factory specific MAZDA Harness behind the existing screen. Once the vehicle is placed into reverse the high resolution image of the backup camera will automatically appear on the factory display for safe navigation. This kit is a simple OEM integration package that maintains your factory set up while upgrading your vehicle with a Rear View Camera System.

If you have one of the higher trim Mazda vehicles, then chances are that it has an Active Driving Display, also known as a heads-up display. This feature is great for showing you important vehicle information without you having to take your eyes off the road. It has many settings that can be adjusted.

Brightness– Moving the slider toward the – side dims the display, while moving the slider toward the + side brightens it. This only works when Brightness Control is set to Manual.

Display Information– Selecting this option opens another menu with three options: Navigation, Street Information, and Reset. Navigation toggles On/Off and shows turn-by-turn directions in the HUD; only works when Mazda vehicle has integrated nav system. Street Information displays things like speed limit signs. It also toggles On/Off. Reset returns these settings to their factory default.

Can’t seem to change any of these options even be following the directions? Bring it into Capo Mazda. We can have our expert technicians diagnose and fix the problem. If you think you may have an issue, schedule a service appointment with us.

No source code? Awesome hack, but the protocol information should be shared somewhere. I’ve seen some people work on this Mazda databus before awhile back and I’ve personally done some decoding on the RX-8 navigation controls. Maybe author could use these controls for more OEM interface/look?

If I was ambitious I’d add that functionality, as well as indoor/outdoor temp readings to my display. Oh and ipod functionality would be cool too. Hmmmmm

Dude, if you want to void warranty on a $40,000 car, go ahead. I’d at least try it out first on a used pile or better yet a junker. One wrong connection on those boards can feed power into the CPU and fry a lot more than the display.

Judging by my experiences with car dealerships (and being an ASE Master Auto Tech for almost 10 years myself) I would say that the dealership wouldn’t notice. They avoid getting under the dash at all costs, and with satellite radio add-ons and such, it’s pretty common to have people come in to the dealership with aftermarket electronics added under the dash. Unless they had to service/replace the LCD module itself, they would never know.

NO!!!! I had a mazda like that and wanted to use the display so bad! I would have been happy just replacing the initial “HELLO” with “MIKES” or something.
