car kit wiring

just got a nokia car kit 2nd hand - on the wiring diagram it has the yellow wire labelled CRM. What is this? It plugs into the control box along with the earth & ignition +'ve etc.

Thanks

CRM stands for Car Radio Mute... it outputs a negative when the car kit is in use or the phone rings whilst in the car kit. Some stereos have a radio mute wire (mutes audio when triggered)... this can be tested with a test light... others that don't you can use a relay to cut the accessories feed to the deck using this wire as a trigger.

dunno chucked out the box & not about pull the dash to bits again! phones a 2125 CDMA thats all i know. 3G is replacing CDMA right?

yeah your right. But seriously hold on on buying a 3G phone for a while. Nokia don't currently have a 3G phone and the current phones and car kits for them are very not good.

dont worry I certainly wont be rushing into 3G. There is coverage in my area now, but its sh*tful compared to CDMA. grrrr

I probably should've let you

Never a good thing to correct the boss!

My bad... but still... your phone would need a crapo car kit. I swear Alishia told me Nokia aint brough em out yet... never trust a sales person hey.

Cool, work's on the boards

.

Correction: my phone would require a crapo cradle, it still would and does work with the CK7W kit either through Bluetooth or the pop port.
