I have a D2 in my 5th Gen.

A month or so after I had my unit installed I noticed that my XM tuner would shut off if I went over bumps. I looked behind the dash and found that one of the power wires doesn't have a clip on the end. Rather, it's just bare wire folded and shoved into the plastic piece which is inserted in the XM tuner. So when I go over bumps, it's contact is occasionally lost, thus shutting off the tuner.

What can I get to put on this wire so that I can properly secure it to the plastic piece which is inserted into the tuner?

 

Use tape or use shink wrap and that should fix the problem.

 

solder it.
or put the right connector on it...

 

Where can I get connectors?

 

idk what the connectors look like on an XM box but they are probably molex or amp most likely...it's just power right? take a pic?

 

It's cold out and I don't want to take it apart more than once, unnecessarily. I'll try. I'm afraid I may have to transplant one from another Pioneer HU that I have. What a PITA.
