willf85 Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 I have a 1991 and a 1994 Lexus Ls400. The cd changer in the 1994 was not working and had to be replaced. I purchased a used cd changer that works in my 1991 but is having trouble in the 94. The reason is that the 1994 has a nakamichi amp and the 91 doesn't. There is an extra plug-in on the cd changer for the nakamichi amp which now has no place (the used cd changer just purchased did not come from a nakamichi equipped car.) Now that the amp is not plugged in anywhere, the radio will not work either. Does anybody know how to bypass that amp and configure it to work? if not the cd changer, how about configuring it so atleast the radio will work? Thanks for your help, it is greatly appreciated.
