CD Changer Interface Model HONASX V.2 Installation 2003-2006 Honda / Acura
The HONASX can either provide up to 2 auxiliary audio inputs to your Honda radio for use with any device that has RCA line level outputs, or provides 1 auxiliary audio input and allows interfacing an aftermarket CD Changer. AUX 1 is the 8 pin DIN to RCA cable which plugs into the 8 pin DIN port on the HONASX interface. AUX 2 is the set of RCAs that are wired directly to the HONASX. These audio inputs are perfectly suited for Multimedia devices such as VCRs, DVD’s, Game Systems or TV tuners. Portable music players such as MP3, MD and CD players can utilize these inputs as well.
Installation and USE:

1.) Activating AUX 2 using negative ground. Attach GRAY wire on the HONASX to a toggle switch that will ground the GRAY wire when selected; Make sure that the BROWN loop wire is connected, and the WHITE loop wire is disconnected.
