Yeah you have to be careful with adaptor harnesses for AV units as they often have more pins/features than standard ones, so just getting "Sony 16-pin 2013->" for instance doesn't guarantee that it'll work.
yeah definetly haha i managed to take it back to repco
toyota - app0141
sony - app8sp3
grabbed some harnesses from super cheap grabbed a toyota Cht02c steering control module harness which bypasses the app0141.
and also app8sp4 for the Sony head unit and also needed a APSONYPL patch lead for the steering wheel control module
followed the other steps grounded the hbrake cable so it now plays dvds! haha!
now it's working! except the only problem is my volume button works on my steering wheel and not the other toggle switch to skip songs or change "mode" etc.. not sure if that's how it is or I've missed something! cheers

I'd say the Aerpro loom just has the handbrake ground wire just hanging free/taped up, they don't ground through the harness and have to be manually connected to the handbrake switch to work properly (speaking from experience with the Kenwood DVD unit in Kevin) - or it can just be grounded permanently to bypass the handbrake switch (which is illegal but you probably won't get caught for it unless you're cruising down the highway and a cop sees you watching Fast and the Furious whilst driving...)
EDIT - I think it needs to be grounded, may be the opposite (ie +12V), there should be a wiring guide or installation manual that comes with the head unit telling you where it needs to be connected to
thanks guys.. I'm a noob when it comes to car stereos .. i was just sick of the old basic aurion head unit with only mp3 cds... and radio haha
I think the aerpro harness they've given me is actually wrong because ive been googling and it's saying the harness I need is app8sp4 not app8sp3?? I'm not saying this will solve my steering wheel problems. im thinking i need another adapter for the steering wheel controls, it looks like the App8sp4 has a longer wire coming off of it which I'm assuming is for the h/brake connection..
which the app8sp3 doesn't have...
appreciate all the info!

yeah the park brake is on. I haven't tried driving with it because I wanted to get the basics right first e.g. steering wheel controls haha. I thought those harnesses would be enough. cheers

Hi guys,
I have a toyota aurion atx 09 model after 3 years of owning the vehicle, cds and listening to the radio just doesn't cut it for me anymore.
I've been reading all over the net about adapter kits. there's a few on eBay etc just unsure need more info. I'm looking to install an
auxiliary / ipod connection + charging/ and bluetooth for music play back* and hands-free calls.
to plug into the the back of the head unit..Pn 86120-06351.
I'm not very tech savy but I've already seen another members post on here Shane_85s aux mod. he makes an aux adapter from Jay car parts.
I don't want to upgrade the head unit either.
basically I wanted some info from others who have done the same thing.
here's some links of what I'm looking at just unsure.
