Re: Ultimate iPod adaptor and 10Min install
You're right, they have been saying that for a while. At least AI answers their e-mail, whatever good that does. They told me I would have to return via Interface Solutions.
If it was just an occasional chime, I could probably live with it. I just can not take losing all of my gauges at once.
The FM transmitter is looking better all of the time.

Re: Ultimate iPod adaptor and 10Min install
I had the peripheral electronics one ... I've had it installed for about 3 days and I've only noticed mine chiming 2 times ( what happens is the oil,battery, water temp and gas gauge goes to zero and the battery light comes on and a second later goes back to normal)... I'll see how it fares with a long trip to san francisco

If you like the sound from a FM modulator then go for it....you may as well just listen to an old transistor radio since that is the sound quality you are gonna get. I like music waaaay too much to even think about crappy FM modulation.... I will definately live with an occasional light or quick trip of the gauges. Mine has been installed for nearly 3 months and it works fantastic other than the occasional incident, sure it would be great if they get the kinks ironed out but if they dont I have no problem living with it. I did a 3 hour drive yesterday (round trip) and it only chimed 1 time the entire ride.

Re: Ultimate iPod adaptor and 10Min install
I called Lynch Hummer the other day to see if they install adapters. They do and only recommended the Axxess ipod adapter. Told me to stay away from the Nucleus as it was causing problems in the trucks. Anyone here tried the Axxess?

I agree 100% with you on this... I can put up with the bell every so often. The sound quality over an FM Modulator is so much better its not even fair to compair the 2 units.
I would recomend the AI unit over the PE one based on my experience with both units. HOWEVER, I would use the directions that are on the PE website on operation as they function the same (The AI unit directions suck, and that's a very nice way to put it)
I can also say that the bells are so random that I get mad at the unit because my heart skips every time I see a warning chime

Re: Ultimate iPod adaptor and 10Min install
OH.. and forgot to add... the unit works with the iPhone. Of course there is no hands free but it will pause the music and you can talk on the phone.

Re: Ultimate iPod adaptor and 10Min install
The Ai and PE is the same unit AI makes them and just re-badges them for PE...

Re: Ultimate iPod adaptor and 10Min install
Mine chimes at least 3 or 4 times an hour and the gauges go to zero at least once per day for a few seconds. When I first installed, it was only the chime and traction control light, now the list is growing.
I know that the sound is much better through the Nucleus, would never deny that, just don't want to take a chance of being stuck in the middle of nowhere waiting for a tow truck.
This thing is messing with the Hummer's computer, otherwise the glitches would only impact the radio systems. Besides, you would not live with it if it came from the dealer with this problem.
It is unacceptable the amount of time that they have been promising a fix, especially after taking and continuing to take so many people's money for a known defective product.
Hopefully, there's not a lead paint issue to deal with as well..............

Atleast you can listen to some wicked tunes while you wait.
Disappointing news at the very least. Looks like I'll have to wait.
Or just go back to ripping my favorite IPOD tunes on to CD.
