will this fit? radio

[transitgeoff]

hit that thing with a feather and its scrap, hope your not having it posted

[stuartrobbie]

oh oh ill let you know if it works when it comes then.
surely a transit van radio would be as hard as nails.

Those 6006s jump like buggery in a Transit as well.

[stuartrobbie]

just a wee update, my 6006e came today eventually and is all in workig order and in perfect condition, however i havent tried it whilst driving but its loading all cds and playing them.

You might have a problem with the configuration because of the ECU unit dont ask me what this means but i was told this by Peoples Ford (liverpool) service department that the wiring loom for a Transit is different to that of a Focus/Mondeo so it may or may not work The easy thing to do is by an ipod and fm transmitter and play your mp3s this way mine works a treat Good Luck

whast an ECU?

the wires went in with a bit of a struggle, then when i realised i had them the wrong way around, the slipped in hunky dory

its working a-ok with and without engine running but never tried it on move yet.

[MrMPuk]

ECU = Engine Control Unit

I wouldn't worry though as this stereo was an option on the van anyway!

[Azer van man]

Idont think they meant the wiring harness i think they meant the wiring pattern as the mondeo/focus have more than 2 speakers and apperently this can make a difference seems a bit strange to me the only way people might find a problem would be if they have the blue tooth kit (c) fitted as this all links in with the stereo. All phone calls and tuning of radio stations or if you want cd instead of radio can be done by voice activation seen it working in my mates Transit and it works a treat ,try it if it dont work chuck it back on the bay i'm sure you'll get ur money back they always seem to sell well

[MrMPuk]

I think your barking up the wrong tree, pretty sure the bluetooth is part of the stereo. Plus of course we are talking about Mk6 her not Mk7.

[Azer van man]

oh yeh got bit carried away there its just when i enquired about would the Sony Ford stereo fit in Mk7 that was the answer i got so i was none the wiser Ford seemed a bit vague on the whole thing Just stick a Roberts wireless on the dash Job Done
