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.
Multimedia Player Interface Module (MPIM) (If Equipped)
The vehicle may be equipped with a Multimedia Player Interface Module. This module can receive signals via the USB connector, the auxiliary audio input jack, or a Bluetooth® connection. This module receives the incoming signals, then sends the signals as analog audio inputs to the radio.
To allow the radio controls to be used to control portable media devices (USB, Bluetooth, iPOD®, ZUNE®, etc); the MPIM translates the USB signals to GMLAN signals to allow the bi-directional communication between the radio and the device. Depending on the device, some devices may not be recognized, or some features/functions may not be able to be controlled with the radio controls. USB HUB devices are not supported.
