Your sequence has to be done smoothly and quickly for the unit to accept the proper sequence.

you have to do that sequence thing to get into setup menu as well after you do the sequence press and hold setup button for like 4 5 secs or so than let go it should let you in setup.. the expansion box is something for the navigation part there is a section cant remember what though and you haev to turn it off just once you get in to the setup menu use 1 thru 6 to scrol through different menus and use the corresponding button to jump through that menu
example to get to menu two option 2 you press
the # 2 button to take you to menu 2 and then press 2 , two more times to scroll through menu to. then read screen for on and off and so on.

drop the dash and locate the plug on top of the brake pedle. and test it to see what wire shows positive only when pressing the pedle down.i belive it is blue/red this wire connects to the yellow/black positive input wire and a toggle switch or the hand brake ground connects to yellow/blue.
