Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Reconnecting the USB device
When you disconnect a USB drive, the data for the track order remains in the audio unit's memory so when you reconnect the same USB drive, the audio unit continues playing from the location where it was disconnected. If a new USB drive is connected, the data for the track order is rewritten and you need to select the album or music file.
