NX5510 radio plug?

[countrybumpkin]

To each his own. My Pyle marine aftermarket radio (see my post #14) was an easy install, cost $46, and has built-in NOAA weather bands and a USB port. Good sound quality, with zero electrical or other interference. So far so good. Congratulations on your new NX5510, BTW!

The factory radio is onlY $220 why go thru all the aggravation!!! And it plugs right In no interference or anything!! It has a USB port!!! So you can connect a weather band to it or cb!!! ?? If you really need that???

Few reasons. Out here in the boondocks there are few radio stations and who plays CD's any more. I need something to hook my iPod and iPhone up to.
My radio and wiring harness cost less than $100, took less than an hour to install, plugged right in and has more options than the factory radio. Leaves me $120 to spend on something else.
I don't need a weather band since my phone has weather alerts but is a nice option for those that need or want it.
The guys that are having interference issues are the ones that replaced their factory lights with LED's.

The factory radio has sub and 3.5 port to plug your phone in!! So you link it that way and it links Bluetooth
It also has a memory card slot to play saved music books etc

AnyOne know if there is a wiring harness available that will plug into a factory kioti one? I'm just about ready to install the new stereo and hate to cut the factory plug off the harness if I don't have to.

Would that be on a dealer installed cab you are talking about, or maybe one from the factory? I just stuck a radio in my dealer installed cab for my new CK2510. I gave up on the store bought plug because after a search i failed to find one. I ended up taking the plug off with cutters. I would say whatever you do do not hardwire that radio in your cab. put those little individual slide connectors in because you will need to get tha radio out at some point for sure. btw ebay has hidden radio antennaes for under $4,00 that work fine and slide right up in that compartment. Also, you will need some 4" speakers from Napa or somewhere because those nice things that seem to look like a speaker in that dealer cab are covers only.

I installed the radio almost two months ago, I just cut the plug off and connected the new radios plug to the wires. Mine came factory with the antenna and speakers already mounted and wired to the harness.

Quick question for anyone who installed a radio in their NX tractor. I installed a radio in my NX6010 yesterday, a Pyle bluetooth model from Amazon. Everything works fine, the only concern I have is that the radio functions fully even with the key off, and the clock stays on when the radio is off. I was surprised that the tractor's radio power wire is not keyed power, is this normal? I did hook up the radio's yellow "memory" wire to the constant power wire on the tractor, I suppose that could be why the clock stays on with the radio off, I'm just not sure how that will work for battery drain.

Mine turns on and off with the key , are you sure your turning the key all the way off and not leaving it in the accessory position, the radio will stay on if so.

The tractor radio wiring should have 2 hot leads. One with power all the time to retain memories and the clock function and one with power only on with the key switch. The radio should also show this on the wiring diagram.

Stupid me, the key was on ACC position. Works as expected in the OFF position.
