C2R-FRD1
Ford Radio Replacement interface
for CAN-bus vehicles
Problem:
When using the C2R-FRD1 in 2009 Ford / Lincoln / Mercury vehicles with an amplified system, other
than Sony or THX, audio is not present. This is due to the turn-on lead being located in a different
position.
Solution:
Follow these steps to turn the factory amplifier on:
1. Locate the 24 pin main power harness in the vehicle.
2. Locate the Yellow/Purple wire in pin 7 of the main
power harness in the vehicle.
3. Connect a jumper wire from the Yellow/Purple wire
in the vehicle harness to the White/Green wire which
connects from the C2R-FRD1 module to the 8 pin sub
connector.
Connectors are viewed from wire side

C2R-FRD1 Tech Brief
Fix For:
“No Audio when using the C2R-FRD1”
Tech Bulletin: C2R-FRD1
Factory Amplified System Shutting Down / Resetting
PROBLEM: In some cases, Ford amplified systems may cause feeback to the C2R-
FRD1 module and cause the radio to turn off intermittently or restart especially at higher
volumes.
FIX: Cut the White/Green wire coming from the C2R-FRD1 module and solder a 1 amp
diode (Radio Shack part no. 1N4005) or equivalent, inline on the white/green wire as
shown in the diargram below. Make sure that the diode’s stripe is towards the harness
of of the C2R module.
