Taming the MMCS

[coughy]

I have just received the speed sensor override and new ipod interface cable that should work properly on the later jobbies.

I don't have any spare time ATM due to the flood damage here but am looking forward to taming this MMCS

The speed sensor overide simply fools the MMCS into less than 4 KMH One snip, some solder and in my case plug it in. Fit the override switch to a blank and jobs done!





Getting into the secret menu. Thanks cowboy dave!

has anyone got one of these and able to see the working of it??
as the inventor isnt around anymore i would like to be able to change cds and skip music but this crazy inmotion thing u cant do anything with it...
anyone pls help
ive read up on other forums all you have to do is cut the white/blue trace and run it past a switch so switch on motion disabled and switch off moton works again??
dont wont to go hacking the harness to find out
the inventor of this has used smoke and mirrors electronicy to get the job done.
i dont want the ipod rubbish just the inmotion bit plsss
cheers coughy

Yeah a few of us have them. It is more than a switch as it replaces the speed pulse with a pulse for a lower speed. I think Keith is still around, but he changed the name of his business and has always been woefully slow. If we had someone in qld who could go and see him you might get better results. He had a kit with a wireless trailer camera that would operate in motion that looked pretty cool.

I looked into this once and found a Japanese kit you could buy. It went one level further and actually intercepted the GPS too and inserted a stationary signal to that part of the mmcs. I have some notes on it somewhere if you need details. The wiring was a lot more involved though.

i see he is in brisbane im in brisbane u got any info on his were abouts??
i could go see him if he has a shop or something like that...

look at the 4 picky ???

[Cowboy Dave]

I knew it! Same model mmcs too. I still reckon it's all about the disc.

[viking shippy]

Ha ha just noticed your avatar cd lol
You do know that an ex is an unknown factor and a spurt is a drip under pressure...

Does anyone know if or how you can use a samsung galaxy s5 with the mmcs, I have the iphone cable from my old iPhone but atm can only use bluetooth phone calls, would love to play music and charge as I used to.

[coughy]

in an easy version no you cant use samsung and a mmcs to play music
there was a cable for the older ipones but that is it
mmcs is really a over priced piece of CRAP that plays dvd and gps maps that is it
usless waste of time and mitsubishi ripped everyone off with the shitty interface where some cars got features and some not.
sorry rant over

[coughy]

hay dave look what i just found trolling the inmanet again

Ver.18 - 2011 (released Mar 2012) -> Includes ROM based firmware upgrade

Should work with the aux audio connection in the centre console box.

I didn't have much joy finding that disc. I did however find a version 20 Subaru maps disc which functions as per usual so far. But no trip functions at this stage.

If I could get the v18 disc I wonder if you could sort of splice the content from the two discs into one working copy?

[coughy]

i have it and didnt do anything
i think that the v18 with the can intercepted into the back of the mmcs might get some where
but beeing can i think the mmcs will have to be enabled (activated so the can has a address of what it is)
as such so the can knows it is there
still looking and thinking
i am going to add the can wires to mine when i get a chance
very busy at moment

[coughy]

ok so all who have this bought over ride gizmo
when you flick the switch does the speedo go to 0 ans once fidling with the switch flick it back and speedo comes back??
reason i ask is i just made my own override works great except that little hicup of speedo turns off when in use...
if that is it then im happy as i dont wont to watch movies and crap just wont to have functions while moving..

[Cowboy Dave]

No the over ride does not interfere with the speedo. It intercepts the speed pulse wire and sends a new pulse equivalent to a speed of 2kmh to the mmcs.

[coughy]

ok ty dave a little more ajusting and modifing is needed just need the electronic shop to be open oh well next week job now buy the looks of it..
cheers i think i know what to do now
ty for the help

[coughy]

ok old thread but do any one know where i can get one of these cables??
or anyone have one laying around??

[Cowboy Dave]

Yeah I have one.

Also they're on eBay these days.

[coughy]

ok so i found and ordered mine from fleabay and a device to stream my music from my phone lets see if this works out the way i wont it too
time will tell

[Cowboy Dave]

You mean a Bluetooth to 30 pin Apple music receiver? I've got one of them. They're surprisingly good. The only limitation is you lose the touchscreen control from the mmcs as it's sort of a one way deal.

[coughy]

well that will do me gus
im looking at the bluetooth streaming i have a android but this should work for what i wont to do..

i should be able to control it from the phone like most other A2DP devices

there is a better unit than the cheapys it is this on dave

but im going to try a flea bay special to test first


can u see this on yours dave??

[Cowboy Dave]

From the ipod I can, but not from Bluetooth.

Mind you the one I was using cost me about $5 from a supermarket somewhere so I shouldn't expect too much.

I have one of the 160gb ipod classics for the glovebox. It has over 20,000 songs on it, some of which I've still not heard, so I don't really "need" to change to bluetooth. But since when has "need" had anything to do with how I modify my Triton.

[snakesoup]

do ya just plug your iPod into the USB in the glove box Dave? and ya can flick through songs or skip or whatever from the stereo?
