9. Reassemble Dashboard: If all functions are working correctly, carefully reassemble the dashboard components.

4. Operating Instructions

The Cocheskon wiring harness and Hiworld FDF2.21 CANbus box decoder are designed to enable seamless integration of your Android car radio with your Ford Focus 2019+ vehicle. Once correctly installed, the harness and CANbus box operate automatically in the background, translating vehicle signals for the Android radio. There are no specific user operations for the harness or CANbus box itself. All functions will be controlled directly through your Android car radio interface.

Ensure your Android radio's settings are configured to recognize the CANbus decoder, if such an option is available in your radio's system settings. This may involve selecting the correct CANbus protocol or vehicle model within the radio's software.

5. Maintenance

This product requires minimal maintenance. To ensure longevity and reliable performance:

• Keep Dry: Avoid exposing the wiring harness and CANbus box to moisture or liquids.
• Avoid Physical Damage: Ensure the components are not pinched, cut, or subjected to excessive force during or after installation.
• Regular Checks: If you experience issues, a professional can check the connections for looseness or corrosion.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues after installation, consider the following troubleshooting steps:

• No Power to Radio: Check all power connections. Ensure the vehicle's battery is properly connected and charged. Verify fuses related to the car radio.
• Steering Wheel Controls Not Working: Ensure the CANbus box is correctly connected and recognized by the Android radio. Some Android radios require specific CANbus settings to be enabled or configured in their system menus.
• No Sound: Check speaker wire connections. Ensure the Android radio's volume is up and not muted.
• Intermittent Functionality: Re-check all connections for looseness. Ensure no wires are pinched or damaged.
• Vehicle-Specific Features Not Working: If features like reverse camera, door open warnings, or climate control display are not functioning, verify the CANbus box is correctly installed and configured.

If problems persist, it is advisable to consult with a professional car audio installer or contact customer support.
