Principis de funcionament

The GM-RZ-01 Canbus Box Decoder acts as an interface between your vehicle's CAN-Bus system and your aftermarket head unit. It translates digital signals from the vehicle (e.g., ignition status, illumination, speed pulse, reverse gear, steering wheel control commands) into analog signals or protocols that your new stereo can understand. This allows for the retention of factory features that would otherwise be lost when replacing the original head unit.

The small speaker/buzzer connected to the harness is designed to reproduce vehicle chimes and warning sounds that are typically routed through the factory stereo. This ensures that important audible alerts from your vehicle are still heard after the installation of an aftermarket head unit.
