Is this product plug-and-play? Do I need to program or code my Mercedes-Benz? Do I need to buy the external GPS antenna? Can I still check the original car information on the OEM screen?
Answer: Yes, it is plug-and-play. It has the same plugs and harness as the original Mercedes-Benz radio. No need to cut wires when installed. You do not need to program/code your car. All necessary accessories are included in the package. You do not need to buy anything else to make it work. You can still check the original Mercedes-Benz car information as before.
Can I operate the original Mercedes-Benz system through the new touchscreen?
Answer: NO. As before, you can only operate the original Mercedes-Benz NTG system through the command knob.
Can I operate the new radio upgrade system interface through the command knob?
Answer: Yes. You can operate the new upgrade system through the command knob and touchscreen. Operation video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uBRqEyXNEPQ
How do I switch between the new upgrade system and the original Mercedes-Benz system?
Answer: There are two methods to switch between the new upgrade system and the original Mercedes-Benz system
Method 1: Please press the "BACK" or "C" or "CLR" command button for 3 seconds to switch between the original Mercedes-Benz NTG system and the new upgrade system.
Method 2: Click the "NTG-Menu" icon on the upgrade system's home menu to access the original Mercedes-Benz NTG system. Touch the screen to access the new upgrade system when it is on the original Mercedes-Benz NTG system.
Why does it show "No signal" or a blank screen when switch to original Mercedes-Benz interface?
Answer: Please check the LVDS port. Make sure you connect the LVDS plug (removed from the original Mercedes-Benz screen, not the plug behind the original head unit) to the "CAR-LVDS" port on the control box.
NTG 4.0 have a 10-pin square LVDS port. NTG 4.5/5.0 have 4 pins round the LVDS plug.
Why there is no audio from the new upgrade system?
Answer:
1. Please check if there is an AUX-IN port, AMI port, or USB port on your car, usually it is in the center armrest box or glove box on the passenger side.
2. If it is AUX IN port(NTG 4.0/4.5/4.7) on your car, please activate AUX mode, then switch to the upgrade system to get sound.
If it is AMI port(NTG 4.0/4.5/4.7) on your car, you need to buy our AMI-AUX cord and plug in the AMI port, then you will see the AUX audio option, activate AUX mode, then switch to the upgrade system to get sound. If it is NTG 5.0/5.1/5.2/5.5 system on your car, then there is only a USB port instead of an AUX/AMI port. You need to buy our USB-AUX cord and plug in the USB port, then activate USB mode to get sound.
Why does the Sirius/XM radio, CD, original car computer info, and factory camera not display? Why can I not see the AMI or AUX IN audio option on the screen even though the AMI-AUX cable is already plugged into the AMI port?
Answer: Please check the fiber optics plug, you need to move it from the original connector to the new connector we provided.
