Product Research

Features

Amplifier Integration Interface: The PAC AmpPRO AP4-TY13 (R.2 version) simplifies the installation of aftermarket amplifiers in select Lexus and Toyota vehicles with factory data-bus controlled premium amplified sound systems. With the AmpPRO AP4-TY13 (R.2), you can improve your vehicle's audio performance while keeping an original radio's fit, finish, and features.

Notes:

  • The AmpPRO AP4-TY13 (R.2) gets installed at the factory amplifier location.
  • If you are only using the PAC AmpPRO interface to add a subwoofer amplifier, the factory amplifier will still power the other speakers in the vehicle.

Vehicle Compatibility: The PAC AmpPRO AP4-TY13 (R.2) amplifier integration interface is compatible with the following 2018-2021 Lexus and Toyota vehicles with factory data-bus controlled premium amplified sound systems.

Make Model Year
Lexus ES 250 2019-2021
ES 350 2019-2021
NX 300 2019-2021
RX 350 2019-2021
RX 450H 2019-2020
Toyota 4Runner 2019-2020

Rav4 2019
Sequoia 2019-2021
Sienna 2018-2020
Tacoma 2019-2021
Tundra 2019-2021
Lexus Notes:
  • ES 250, ES 350, and NX 300 must have a factory headunit with an 8" screen.
  • RX 350 and RX 450 vehicles equipped with a factory navigation headunit are not compatible.

Toyota Note:

  • All compatible 2018+ Toyota vehicles must have the 28/10-pin BHA1765 style connector at the back of the factory radio. Vehicles equipped with the 20-pin BHA8113 or the 10/6-pin BHA1761 style connectors are not compatible. The factory radio will need to be removed to verify connector type.

6Ch Pre-Outs: The PAC AmpPRO AP4-TY13 (R.2) provides a 6-channel pre-amp output for use with aftermarket amplifiers. Using the full-range, fixed level factory radio output, in conjunction with data-bus CAN messages, the AP4-TY13 (R.2) delivers a variable 5V RMS pre-amp output with fading, balance, equalization, and level control capabilities.

Non-Fading Level Control Knob: Channels 5-6 (Sub) of the AP4-TY13 (R.2) are non-fading outputs. The output level of channels 5-6 can be controlled using the supplied level control knob. The level control knob comes with a 6' cable which plugs into the interface module and should be mounted in an accessible location.

Data Controlled Remote Turn-On: A data controlled remote amplifier turn on wire is also provided by the PAC AmpPRO AP4-TY13 (R.2). The remote turn-on is rated at 2A of current. If more current is needed an external relay must be used.

Retained Factory Audio Features: The PAC AmpPRO AP4-TY13 (R.2) also retains all audio from other vehicle features such as factory Navigation Prompts, Bluetooth, Safety System, and Warning Chimes. The Toyota Safety Connect (SOS) can also be retained (see Installation Instructions).

Notes: The factory radio's speed controlled volume, DSP, and surround sound mode are not supported by the AP4-TY13 (R.2).

Minimum & Chime Volume: If the minimum volume of your factory radio is too loud once the AP4-TY13 (R.2) is installed, you can manually set the level of the minimum volume using either the programming button on the side of the interface or the factory SWC (Steering Wheel Controls) in conjunction with the supplied level control knob. You can also use AmpPRO PC app. You can also adjust the chime volume level. 

AmpPRO PC App: Using the AmpPRO PC App (for Windows PC only) allows you to configure user interface options such as Minimum Volume Level, Chime Volume Level, and a 3-Band EQ from your Windows computer or laptop. The app can also be used to update product firmware.

  • Minimum & Chime Volume Level: From the app you can set the minimum volume level of the factory radio, as well as the chime volume level.
  • Chime Enabling: This lets you enable or disable the radio "beep" tone that is heard when pressing radio buttons. It is also possible to disable the beeps using the factory radio's menu.
  • 3-Band EQ: Enables the 3-band EQ (Bass-Mid-Treble) with frequency and Q-factory adjustment. The Bass Frequency can be set to 60, 80, 100, or 120Hz; while the Bass Q-Factor can be set to 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, or 2.0. The Mid Frequency can be set to 500, 1k, 1.5k, or 2.5k; while the Mid Q-Factor can be set to 0.75, 1.0, 1.25, or 1.5. The Treble Frequency can be set to 7.5k, 10k, 12.5k, or 15k; while the Treble Q-Factory can be set to 0.75 or 1.25.
  • Firmware: The AmpPRO app will also allow you to update the interface with new firmware as it becomes available.
Note: These AmpPRO PC App settings can be adjusted with the module installed in the vehicle or on the bench. However, it is recommended to make the adjustments with the module installed, and the factory radio on so that the changes can be heard.

DIP Switches: Four DIP switches can be used for the following:

  • Switch #1: Set to On for 2-channel mode.
  • Switch #2: Lets you select the pre-out voltage, either 4V or 5V.
  • Switch #3: When set to On, gives a +8dB boost to the input signal of the module.
  • Switch #4: Not used, and should be set to the Off position.

Optional Toslink Add-On Module: When used in conjunction with PAC's APA-TOS1 (541APATOS1; sold separately), the AP4-TY13 (R.2) can provide a variable 2-channel fiber optic digital audio output (toslink). Toslink fiber-optical cable also sold separately.

You will want to contact an Advisor by phone (1-800-324-9695) or online chat to discuss compatibility with your factory system. They will be able to pull up your vehicle and see if this will integrate. If it does not, then they will also be able to discuss other options with you.
