   Includes a FREE CPKCA135B Ai-net to M-Bus adapter - A $14.95 value - with purchase!
The FRDN/PC-ALP interface connects to the CD changer port at the rear of the factory radio of many 1998-2005 Ford/Lincoln/Mercury vehicles (Please see Specific Vehicle Application List below) and will control the Alpine CD Changer. Also works with Mazda 'B' Series truck and Nissan Quest.
 Installation is simple, as the interface plugs into the 20-pin connector at the rear of your factory radio using the vehicle specific cable that comes with the interface. The 20-pin connector, shown at right, is one of the two connectors in Ford's standard 20-pin/16-pin connector configuration (click on image to see larger photo of the rear of the radio). You then simply plug the cable that comes with the Alpine CD changer into the changer connector on the interface and you're done.
Depending on what factory options your vehicle has, there could already be a factory wiring harness plugged into the 20-pin radio connector. The wiring harness that comes with this interface device is designed with a 'Y' connector that allows you to reconnect the factory wiring harness, if so equipped, once the interface is installed, keeping all existing factory options functional. If there is no factory wiring harness plugged into the 20-pin connector, the 20-pin 'Y' harness will remain empty after installation.
IMPORTANT APPLICATION NOTES:
Compatible with the Alpine CHM-S630 6 Disc CD Changer as well as the Alpine CHA-S634 6 Disc MP3 CD Changer when used in conjunction with the CPKCA135B Interface Adapter.
NOT compatible with 2003-2005 vehicles equipped with the 6-Disc in-dash headunit that are NOT equipped with external CD changer capabilities. This means that if you have a 6-disc in-dash CD changer and your factory radio can have another externally mounted (not in the dash) CD changer installed and be able to control both CD changer devices, this device will work with your vehicle.
NOT compatible with vehicles with factory navigation system.
