I tried different wires and USB ports. Nothing worked. I’ll trouble shoot with where I bought it tomorrow or return it if we can’t get it to work

$1k front speakers? Wtf

Ayyy, you got to pay to play. I'm sure kenwoods are just fine for most people.

I can't speak on the 8400 but the 8600 was a little finnicky to get the carplay to work but once it recognizes it I generally don't have an issue until I switch phones.

It’s the 8600. I’m sitting in truck again right now. Updated my phone from 14.x to 14.3. Brought wife’s iPhone and it won’t pair. Basically trying everything I can think of hasn’t worked so it’s going back today. 
 

on a separate note. Is anyone else’s unit loud? Gives off a really bad high pitched sound that I can hear when radio is off and after a few minutes affects my ears. 
 

either I got a bad unit or these things suck. I almost bought the kenwood but switched to pioneer and it’s looking like a bad idea.

Do you have the bose sound system? Is there a amp? Check your grounds. I had no issues with the 8400 but didnt like the 7200 so swapped for the 8400.

Got the CarPlay to work so that’s a plus. Just running down now how to get backup lines to show and tune the amp better.

The radio might not have it built in. The avic7200 had when i swapped to the avic8400 it didn't. The factory camera doesn't have it built in. I am in the process of changing out the factory camera to a better 1

Here is pic of stock and 1 with a roughly 600tvl resolution. Pic with lines is aftermarket camera. I have ordered another camera thats suppose to be 800tvl. Waiting for that to come in to compare.7b52a7f08f044ab1bf301b218e6a37b7.jpgbec0a2ff67a6a098c4b139c57e69e99f.jpg

I finally figured out the issue with the backup camera and got it to come up with right screen in reverse. Now the issue I have is that I must click the button on the screen to make the lines appear. At this point I’ll have everything worked out in a year.
