Default Help w mygig for a 2011 Sahara

[QUOTE=MANGO;24186]Ok jeeple. I need help. I have a 2011 Sahara jk w a factory standard radio. I know it is a high bus so on ebay I purchased a touchscreen mygig radio. They said it ws just plug and play. So I took apart my dash. Removed old radio and plugged in new one. The only thing that works is the screen moves down to allow u to put in a DVD. Nothing else works. I'm so confused. I've read something's about a " lock pick". I have no idea what that is? Help please!!!!

Did you install the GPS antenna.

Lockpick is a separate add on which:

Override Kit for all OEM Equipped Navigation Systems
Unlocks DVD and auxiliary video playback
Fully enables the blocked functions of the factory navigation system
Allows the viewing of DVDs while the vehicle is in motion
Enables the navigation address input while the vehicle is in motion
Controls factory or aftermarket cameras in any gear
Removes restrictions for XM category scrolling, as well as radio and CD player restrictions
Allows Onstar on-screen dialing

The one I bought does not have the navigation/ GPS. Do I still need the special antenna?

It should be just plug and play. If the door opens/closes and the screen is not turning on, and it is indeed a HS unit, then you probably have a bad unit.

It's doing that because that's not a high speed radio, it's a low speed unit. I checked the part number on the tag against the list on wkjeeps.com, and it's definitely a low speed unit, so someone sold you the wrong radio.
