4. Streaming is interrupted when using turn signal, headlights or wipers,
Do I have a defective module?
In rare occasions users may experience streaming interruptions when
using these accessories which indicates the accessory (e.g. wiper motor
etc.) is loading down the circuit to which the BLU-C5 is connected. Please
locate alternate ACC supply.
5. Ignition switch "ON" but blue LED is not flashing. Why is that?
Check ACC wire for power (Go to page 5). Also check Add-a-fuse crimp
integrity; often times a bad crimp may result in lack of power.
6. Nothing changes when pressing "AUX" button. What would cause this?
Ensure dip-switch #3 and 8 are "ON" or down, otherwise try to reset:
1. Disconnect 22-pin plug from module or disconnect negative battery
terminal (one or the other)
2. Set all 8 dip-switches to "OFF" or "UP"
3. Module or battery must remain disconnected for 12-15 minutes
4. After time has expired, set dip-switches 3 and 8 to "ON or down

instead.
7. Why do I have to connect an accessory wire to fuse box. Is there not
an accessory wire at the radio or CD changer plug?
The short answer is no there is not. As of 4/6/20 (revision); routing
accessory wire is no longer required for modules installed at the
radio with PXHGM4 and PXHGM4+ USB harnesses. The revised module
does not require routing accessory wire to fuse panel and will turn on/off
with radio PWR button which means module will continue playing even after
ignition has been turned off. Modules installed to 10-pin plug in trunk/hatch
with PXHGM2 harness, requires routing accessory wire to fuse panel below
passenger toe board.
8. Can I connect the accessory wire to radio fuse (15A) which appears to
powers on/off with ignition switch?
NO! Radio fuse (5) is battery powered and not recommended. Radio power
is controlled by BCM, (See question 12). Please refer to recommended fuse
positions for Acc. Wire on pg. 3 of this guide.
