    Hello,
    I installed dudu7 in my Opel Insignia 2011 but the center console is not working while steering wheel buttons work.
    I thing all the cables are installed correctly but not 100% sure does anyone have an idea how to fix this ?

      What do you mean with center console? And what kind of buttons are there on that center console?

                  dudu-lai What do you need me to take picture of ,and what about steering wheel buttons ? As i said they work.

                      Bury What is a central console?

                        I also asked you what a central console is. For you in your opel insignia it might be obvious, but not to others that do not have an opel insignia.
                        There are now 2 persons trying to help you, but if you don't help us and make a photo or explain better, we will not be able or even want to help you.
                        "i'm mainly talking about volume knob". Which volume knob? where? somewhere in the center of your dashboard? Somewhere in the middle console before or after your (automatic) gear shift?

                                Bury These buttons usually control the factory CD, does the factory CD still work?

                                    dudu-lai I had to take out factory CD entirely cuz the cables that I had plugged into the cables that originally went into the CD.

                                      Bury The buttons here need to be wired to the canbox in order to work properly.
                                      It also requires protocol support.

                                          DUDU-Meng where can I buy those wires and what can I do about "protocol" ?

                                              Bury I just learned that these buttons are used to control the original cd player. You have chosen not to retain the original car host an turn dudu
                                              These buttons are definitely not available

                                                  DUDU-Meng So is there a way to keep originall CD player and still use Dudu ? With the wires that I had there was no way to connect Dudu and CD player together.

                                                    There are multiple modifications for your model.

                                                    1. Vertical screen Will remove the physical buttons in its entirety
                                                    2. horizontal screen retain cd host installation is more complex sound or by the original cd host sound, dudu for entertainment.
                                                    3. Horizontal screen retains the faceplate does not retain the cd host Advantage is that the sound is completely controlled by the new host

                                                        DUDU-Meng so there's no way to connect just the volume knob with Dudu ? and if I'll choose the 2nd option how can I set it up ?

                                                          No, the second way Your original cd host is still working fine.
                                                          Dudu is for entertainment only.

                                                              DUDU-Meng Can I ask for instructions how i'm supposed to wire eferything ?

                                                                Asked the tech. You can't keep the original cd on this model.
                                                                That's why this button doesn't work.
