I've always called them and gotten someone on the phone after a try or two. They're based out of California so PST hours.How did you manage a return? I can't get a response from Phoenix Automotive.

A fad?? Lmao just installed today. 3 yrs laterThe Tesla unit was kind of a fad. Some still have it and like it, but there isn't a lot of new/renewed interest. The 8' unit looks closest to stock, has the best hardware, and is supposed to land in the $350 range.
STFU. do you even have one??I'll say it again... The Tesla unit sucks.
In other words go awayYou made it very clear that this unit isn’t worth it. You’ve done your part, we release you from your pain
What I want to know, is how to Program the two main dials to control Temperature and Fan Speed respectively, instead of only the radio volume and station/song advance.I've just posted a thread on how to hide the A/C controls and nav bar on the screen, it's pretty easy to do and only requires a laptop and WiFi hotspot.
Not that I've found yet. That's probably something that Phoenix would have to integrate, or maybe Sergey's custom firmware could do (if he programmed it in). Using Gamepad Tester it shows that the two dials are recognised by Android as keyboard buttons, but I don't know of a way to change their function. It may be possible using AutoInput and Tasker, but I've not yet spent too long trying it out.What I want to know, is how to Program the two main dials to control Temperature and Fan Speed respectively, instead of only the radio volume and station/song advance.
Not only to program the dials, but ensure the steering wheel radio control buttons for radio volume and station advance do stay the same.
Is there a way to do this?
If you bough it with paypal you can get them involved they allow you to dispute charges for 180 days. And as a ebay seller I can tell you paypal will almost always side with the buyer.How did you manage a return? I can't get a response from Phoenix Automotive.
I tried they dont have the option to pay with paypal at all anymore(if you are buying the phenoix ones from them which is only place to get the newest one)They say they can take payment with amazon pay but I cant get it to work. I called them to ask if they had any in stock and they said no. they ship them all from china so will be a month wait. I asked then how they are a business that sells these and they have none? really got no answer. She then said but we have lots of open box returns in if you want one of those they are 200 off. I said open box? she said yes ones people returned. That shoud be a clue.... IM an idiot I bought it anyway..new.. but got the warranty if thats does any good who knows. They have it where you have to use your credit card now IM guessing just so you cant open cases against them. But most credit cards have a 3 year product replacement service as part of the member perks so... I figured why not. had a code that took 70 bucks off price.My review after a year of having it. Bought in August 2019. PX6
Had all the problems since I preordered it when it first came out before they said they fixed the bugs (rear camera stuck in cold weather, etc). It was cool while it lasted.
Eventually ended up getting a hardware issue of vertical lines on the screen around May.
They never responded to me via email or Facebook with a good answer until I threatened to file a claim then, I got a callback realllll fast. Ended up returning it for repairs but they just refunded my paypal.
Might buy another one. It’s cheaper now then when I first got it.
tl;dr it’s a piece of crap but it’s a cool flex. returns to company are awful and I highly recommend buying via paypal Credit so you are covered for your purchases for a year.
LOL took a while to digest what you were saying.I tried they dont have the option to pay with pal at all anymore(if you are buying the phenoix ones from them which is only place to get the newest one)They say they can take payment with amazon pay but I cant get it to work.

LOL you quoted me to quick , I went back and fixed it a bit IM not the best at typeing yeah I skipped the open box . I figured The product is a year or two at best thing and thats when its new. I sure dont want a open box returned by someone. she said they test them all to make sure the functions work.... IM like you hook up and install all of these to test the functions on every brand of car you sell them for? I was met with silence.... IM sure buying an open box is just buying someone elses problem. I read the groups on facebok and most seem to enjoy theirs. of the thousands of people in the groups only a few claim theirs has failed so we will see. IM totally expecting to be flushing 630 bucks down the drain but who knows. Most people say the new ones all seem to work fairly well. they are just a bitch to set up cause they dont come with any instructions what so ever.LOL took a while to digest what you were saying.
They must have JUST stopped paypal cause of all the claims.
Open box is questionable. Good luck.
