2014 23 LSV Rockford Brain Help

[DarrenBoddy]

Recently purchased a 2014 23 LSV. It has the Rockford Fosgate system in it. I want to add a RCA Bluetooth kit to it. Any help on where the brain actually is? Also, is it possible to do what I am trying to accomplish?

 

Thanks in advance

Port locker. yes, but if you have the AUX/USB port in the glove box, you'll lose that likely.

In my opinion that generation2013-2017 black box was glitchy and constantly having ground loop problems with engine noise in the stereos. 

If you are making changes I would consider bypassing the black box entirely and going with an exile Dmc and Eq, or wetsounds controller and eq to bypass the black box and use phone Bluetooth or aux inputs to control the stereo. Each eq will also provide you with zone controls sub/cabin/tower

Any links to these? Pictures of what the "brain" looks like?

It’s in the ski locker AKA “chamber of death” on the upper port side of the amp board.

I’ll have to search a bit later for pics,  feel free to DM me your # and I can talk it over if you like.

I had your same boat but with the 350 motor
