Hey there!!!
I just got a GREAT 2014 CX 5. Couldn't be happier.
Thing is, I immediately installed an aftermarket stereo (Alpine ilx-207) with Apple CarPlay. It's fantastic, BUT......
I wanted to turn off the car horn confirmation when I activate the alarm system on the car using the fob. I don't want to wake my neighbors up, as I get home at 2:30 AM from work.
I tried using a few fob-controlled commands that I found on the Internet, but none of them work. I followed the instructions in the user manual, but that doesn't work, either. I watched a video on the 2014 CX 5 that shows this option being controlled through the factory stereo. OOF!~
Question is, what functionality have I lost by putting in an aftermarket stereo? Is there any way to control those options with the Alpine ilx-207 stereo? Do I have to reinstall my old stereo in order to be able to gain operational control over the car?
Thanks!
